====== Crossfire TRT ======

Crossfire TRT is a fork of Crossfire, which remains protocol-compatible with Crossfire.

The website where the main news and features of the Crossfire TRT development is published is [[http://cf.schmorp.de/]]. The main server where the current CVS is running is [[servers:schmorp]].

A more comprehensive - yet biaised - list of changes can be found at [[http://cf.schmorp.de/differences.shtml]],
here a couple of them:

===== Main changes =====
  * The plugin infrastructure is different;
  * Crossfire TRT uses Perl as its main scripting language instead of Python;
  * A more complex handling of npc dialogs, including per-conversation state or per-player flags;
  * Different login management, which allows for unused characters to be overwritten by newer ones;
  * Different I/O handling: map loading/saving is asynchronous, for example;
  * an after-death area where players must prove their worthyness has been implemented;
  * The worldmap is different than the one used in Crossfire.
  * The worldmap is generated from multiple images which describe the terrain and region of the worldmap.
  * All resources are reloadable and extendable at runtime: treasurelists, archetypes, faces, maps
  
The Crossfire TRT code is now using C++ features, in the hope of making the code easier to maintain on the long run. Perl is also included "in depth" in the core of Crossfire TRT.

===== The Gtk Map Editor =====

An early offspring of the Crossfire TRT project was [[http://cf.schmorp.de/editor.shtml|GCE - Gtk Crosfire Editor]],
which aims to make the map edition easier than with CFJavaEditor/Gridarta. The features are listed on the editor page.
