The inhabitants endured many hardships, many died of hunger. Some tried to reach, by small boat or on foot, a better land -- none of them ever came back.
One of the colonists, named [[:Andreas]], succeeded in persuading many inhabitants to worship [[:gods:Devourers]], whose followers don't suffer hunger. The other inhabitants argued, logically, that since many did convert they would have enough food, and refused to convert.

+ After his death, Andreas was nicknamed "Andreas the Ravenous" -- because he always liked good jokes --, and the church of Devourers was named after him.
For many centuries the two groups, followers and non followers, lived together pacifically, though some incidents did occur.
One of the most significant issue was the schism lead by Zaah in 2675 EK. In order to, by their own words, keep the purity of the Devourers' cult and not be influenced by livings, some hundred people founded a small outpost. But Zaah became a brutal dictator, making people build him a castle. He was finally overthrown by a riot of his subjects and retreated to his castle. The outpost's population decreased rapidly as inhabitants came back to Darcap, though some purists insisted on staying there.

+ Things I do intend to do in the future, when I have time/will...
+
+ ====== Content ======
+ * towns without (bad) monsters, move dungeons outside towns; if still monsters, explain/give decent reasons
+ * make towns bigger
+ * no more houses without map
+ * add ingame lore - world creation, why different magical powers, and such; take from wiki
+ * more quests
+ * hints about quests with various NPCs / at various places
+ * for towns like Navar, enforce the 'no undead' rules
+ * town illuminations at night
+
+ ===== Darcap =====
+ * record how much you spend on bar
+ * release some quests/stuff when you spend enough
+ * NPCs hate/love relation - you kill an NPC, you get a reward from another, but are forbidden [for some time] to get into such and such shops
+
+
+ ====== Gameplay ======
+ * skills like cooking, mining, and such => less 'hack and hack'
+ * more graphism / items, including no combat ones
+ * expand 'use' command; put combinations in a file, with more options
+ * alchemy: add 'on_failure_yield' for failures, add min required level
+ * harvest: add breakage percentage
+ * alchemy: multiple cauldrons for one recipe
+ * skills or spells consuming specific items when used/cast
+ * quests command, and mechanism around -- would need a way to activate a quest when reading a randomly generated scroll, maybe?
+ * better random maps; fix key placement with some a* algorithm to split the map in parts
+ * reduce food supply, like divide by 10 the current values?, to give more interest to food - right now it's useless
+
+
+ ====== Various ======
+ (maybe one day)
+ * expand CRE to actually edit things; merge mapper into it; add cache to not rebuild all things all the time
+ * quick filters to find stuff in eg archetypes
+ * use XML for various file formats, or some common format
+ * move to Qt/C++, to not reinvent the wheel all the time; and massively clean the code
+ * i18n easier to figure out (goes with previous point)
+
+ ====== old obsolete stuff ======
+
Todo list:
* add hooks for plugin events at many places
* Just a note, you might want to wait for the [[dev_todo:refactor|proposed refactoring]] to be started, and integarate with that --- //[[user:rednaxela|Alex Schultz]] 2006/10/23 (not logged in)//
* let random maps be (easily) generated by plugins. Currently it's possible (intercept the apply event of a specific exit or globally), but you won't benefit from code in random map part. Ideally, a plugin would just send a map (###D### format) and let the random code handle it

Short term list of things I hope to find time to work on, maybe in some sort of order.
* Account based login for characters - adding support to GTK client and server.
* New character creation method - client based and not in game (map) based. So player can see what the different options do and make better choices.
* Rebalancing efforts:
* Melee combat - remove wc/ac, increase resistance of monsters, likely weapon rebalance.
* Stat changes - increase range (1-50), but decrease what you get - a 50 in new system may be equivalent to a 30 now.
* Spell changes - balance, redo spells, maybe look at runic type system.
* Add inventory wizard to client
* For shops, this provides a convenient place to buy/sell items - if selling items, will clearly show what you get so you don't have to examine every item.
* Can also be used to set up weapon/armor sets
* Not meant to be kept up all the time - during normal play, window typically would not be up.
* Code cleanup
* Remove all but latest protocol version of various commands.
* Look at other areas with confusing/obsolete/odd code.

* quests command, and mechanism around -- would need a way to activate a quest when reading a randomly generated scroll, maybe?
* better random maps; fix key placement with some a* algorithm to split the map in parts
* reduce food supply, like divide by 10 the current values?, to give more interest to food - right now it's useless
+ ===== Quest mechanism =====
+ Goal: the most flexible
+
+ Consequence: only provide base mechanism - quest state tracking. And let every other aspect be controlled by the quest writer. This doesn't prevent writing higher level quest mechanisms if needed.
+
+ Should there be an explicit available quest listing for the players? So they know what to do?
+
+ Most flexible idea: add a plugin function for quest handling, to describe the quest and such, call it periodically to give hints to the players, stuff like that.
+
+ Only one 'active' quest at the same time, but multiple 'in progress'? Active quest can give hints if needed (show target position on map, stuff like that).
+
+ Server-side, a quest for a player is:
+ * an internal code - must be unique
+ * a description
+ * current state - positive integer, value quest-specific, or special value -1 meaning completed
+ * current state description - to remind the player about what to do
+ * manipulation functions, with a client-side notification, for quest start / modification / completion
+ * setup command and associated client requests to get quest status
+
+ Client-side:
+ * nothing at first
+ * quest window in the future, with notification handling
====== Various ======
(maybe one day)
* expand CRE to actually edit things; merge mapper into it; add cache to not rebuild all things all the time

====== cf_darcap plugin ======
This plugin handles various things in [[world:darcap|Darcap]].
It can be considered beta quality - it works, but needs testing to ensure no crash or bad things happen ;)
--- //Ryo 2010/01/17 12:05//
What it currently handles:
* Cameron's tavern
* Spike's back aches potion (quest)
Hopefully it will expand to include more things.

* quick filters to find stuff in eg archetypes

+ * active objects on a map-basis
+ * pool of map-processing tasks for a group of maps ; move maps between pools based on load

+ * issue: processing linked maps should be by the same thread to not have conflicts/multiple access; or all potentially linked maps in the same (special) pool? could be an issue with bigworld, but could work
