Zone.Indoors request - devs need help

[PeteSampras]

We are looking to create a Zone.Indoors TLO, the only way to do it, so it seems, is to hardcode a list. Therefore, we would like for some volunteers to provide a list of indoor zones (and their names so we know what is already done).

If anyone has a master list that we can check off (I tried allakhazam and they didnt have a handy dandy indoor/outdoor list), that would be of use too so we know we get them all.

I will start the list.

Expansion/continent - zone - id
Antonica - Permafrost - 73

Here is a little snippet you can add to any macro to test it by trying a mount in each zone you run through and it will auto add to a file called Indoor_Zones.ini:

#event Indoors                 "#*#You can only cast this spell in the outdoors#*#"
#event Indoors                 "#*#This spell does not work here#*#"
#event Indoors                "#*#You are already on a mount#*#"
#event Indoors                 "#*#You can not summon a mount here#*#"

Sub Event_InDoors
/ini "Indoor_Zones.Ini" "Zones" "${Zone.ShortName}" "${Zone.ID}"
/return

Or if you prefer a macro version of the same thing, use the attached.

Is this not the list you are looking for? Seems accurate to me.

:: Zones by Type :: EverQuest :: ZAM

Edit: Hmm, looking through the list it doesn't really look that accurate at all. Odd.
Will do some looking around.

Edit2: Okay I found this. I am not sure if it's a complete listing though. Zone Level Chart - Zliz's EverQuest Compendium

Edit3:

So, using that site, and sorting the table, it gives this list. Still need zone IDs.

Nice find, i couldnt find that when i was looking. I might be able to do it by those names if the zones match it exact. Zone.Name instead of Zone.ShortName. IDs just make it easier for me since i know how to do that. So those zone IDs would be what we want, though I can talk it over with one of the other guys and see i names work.

Given a list of zone names, you've got the IDs if you parse INIs.

If you want the short name from a full name, use Zones.ini It's in the format Full Name=shortname

Example: Plane of Knowledge=poknowledge

It is broken up by expansions for INI sections, however, you should be able to get a list of sections in an INI and simply loop through them to find the right one. It will only be an issue if a zone name is used for multiple zones, which in some cases it is:

Wedding Chapel=weddingchapel
Wedding Chapel=weddingchapeldark

Those may require some manual intervention if the two different zones are one indoor one outdoor. There will also be some other tweaking as I see some of the zones in that list have extra information that is not part of the zone long name.

For example, The Caverns of Exile (Sol C), the Long name is actually just The Caverns of Exile, and the short name is soldungc. Another one that is backwards is The Hole (The Ruins of Old Paineel), which has a real zone name of The Ruines of Old Paineel. What I would probably do is code it to run through and look at the entire name as is with any () at the end, if not matches are found try it with any () dropped off, and if no matches are found check only the part in the (), if it still cannot find any matches or if at any point multiple matches are found, just output it as one that requires manual review. You will most likely only end up with a few that need manual review.

After you have the shortname, use MQ2PiggyZone.ini. Here you are going to have to loop to find what you are looking for, but it can still work. Luckily, it's all under one section [ZoneConnections].

ZoneID=shortname "Long Name",{id connections}

So just loop through all the ZoneIDs, until you find one that the first x number of letters = shortname, where x = Len(shortname).

At least for eqmac there existed a call to check if its a underwater, noob zone and indoor outoor zone, I guess its possible that it was removed but I could look it up... The indoor flag used to be part of zoneinfo...
