Level Capping An Area

[colivah]

I am trying to figure out if it is possible to impose my own custom level cap to a certain zone. I have looked through the files to see if i could reverse engineer something but I am stuck. Any ideas?

We have a field per zone called restrictions, but that doesn't appear to be used, maybe Teo can shine some wisdom on that:
https://github.com/LandSandBoat/server/blob/base/sql/zone_settings.sql#L29

Otherwise, look at how the level-sync effect works: https://github.com/LandSandBoat/server/blob/094ec9f022916bc86b8d0efee166b626ec560c2c/scripts/globals/effects/level_sync.lua

target:levelRestriction(effect:getPower()) -- Probably level?
target:levelRestriction(0) -- Probably removing restriction

You could apply the effect in your zone scripts onZoneIn call.

There aren't bindings for onZoneOut, but you can look in core for when it handles level sync stuff and put something custom there:

server/src/map/zone.cpp

Line 949 in db7d27f

if (PChar->m_LevelRestriction != 0)

Update from Teo:
The promy zones do something similar to what you're after:

zone_object.afterZoneIn = function(player)
    if ENABLE_COP_ZONE_CAP == 1 then
        player:addStatusEffect(xi.effect.LEVEL_RESTRICTION, 30, 0, 0)
    end
end

Presumably, that effect wears naturally when you zone out

Thank You so much! I will look into these and see if I can make it work. I really appreciate the reply!

yup.
