Balthazar aims to be the swiss army knife of MajorMUD realm bots. Written in Python and easily configurable this bot can bring life to your otherwise lifeless realm. We all know that MajorMUD is not exactly a newer game nor does it bring with it any advanced forms of technology to tap into its data. For this I present to you Balthazar.
While running Balthazar you will be able to provide the following services in-game to other players via your bot.
- Alignment resets
- Add Lives to players
- Monster status
In addition to the in-game services provided Balthazar will also be able to dump in-game data into a MySQL database. The following will all be recorded:
- Who's Online
- List of Top 100 Users
- List of Top 100 Gangs
- Tracking EXP/Hour for Users and Gangs
To install Balthazar you will need Python 3.5+ and the Python module
MySQLdb. You will need to create the
database structure located in mysql.txt. You will then need to edit the
bbs.cfg and place it in the parent directory of the script location.
(eg. if the script is in /home/kyau/balthazar, then the bbs.cfg needs to be
located in /home/kyau).
