Guides / Wiki editing guide
« on: December 09, 2018, 06:56:41 pm »
Introduction
This guide will teach some of the basics of editing Wiki pages.
If you're a new member of the Wiki team, then you don't need to read all of it. Instead just read the "Basic editing" and look through the titles of the other sections, so that you can come back to it if you need to check how something is done.

Basic editing
Wiki syntax -   Description
* - When used as a first thing in a line, creates a bullet point for lists.
==Heading== - Turns "Heading" into a heading.
===Subheading=== - Turns "Subheading" into a subheading.
__FORCETOC__ - Forces table of contents (added automatically if there are 4 or more headings on the page).
__NOTOC__ - Removes table of contents (use on short pages with many headings).
#REDIRECT [[pagename]] - If it's the only content on the page, automatically redirects to pagename.
<!--- comment ---> - Allows adding comments for other Wiki editors, that are not displayed on the page.
[[pagename]] - Turns the word "pagename" into a link to pagename (use whenever the content on a Wiki page is related to anything for which there is or should be a Wiki page).
Adding a link to the page itself will create bold text.
[[pagename|text]] - A link to pagename that says "text".
[[File:image.png]]
[[File:image.png|left]]
[[File:image.png|100px]]
[[File:image.png|center|200px]]
- Ways of displaying the file image.png as an image, can include alignment (left/center/right) and image width.
{{PAGENAME}} - Displays the name of the current Wiki page in text.

Feedback / World map locations
« on: September 24, 2018, 09:30:30 am »
Couldn't find a topic for it, so here's one for reporting missing or poorly named locations.

Name Change:
Jossik's Rellekka slayer cave only tasks => Jossik's Rellekka slayer tasks
Reason: It's easier for beginners to search for "slayer tasks" and have all the slayer masters pop up, this works with other slayer masters already.

Missing locations:
Turael's Barbarian dungeon slayer tasks inside the Barbarian dungeon, near the entrance
Prismatic altar locations
Ghost Captain, the new one that's west of Barbarian village
Herb patches near Canifis

Suggestions & Ideas / Daily bonuses
« on: September 23, 2018, 08:06:50 am »
I've been thinking that instead of the usual double xp and double minigame tickets, we could have a few different more specific bonuses every day.
How this would work is that every day there would be a notification saying "Day of *", where * is some type of a theme for the bonuses, followed by a list of bonuses for that day. These bonuses could apply to all sorts of activities, such as training skills, killing NPCs or playing minigames. These could be predetermined on some days (for example they could be used to introduce new content right after updates) and picked randomly at other days.

Some examples of what these bonuses could be (the percentages don't have to be what I say and there can be more bonuses on each day, but it should probably be kept between 2-5 bonuses per day):

Day of the Warrior
+50% Attack, Strength, Defence and Hitpoints experience in melee combat.
Special attack regenerates 30% faster.
Double Warrior's Guild tokens.

Day of the Archer
+50% Ranged and Hitpoints experience in ranged combat.
+30% chance of saving ammunition when firing ranged weapons. (Stacks with Ava and Max cape bumping them up to 80% arrows saved and also saves 30% of arrows without them.)
Tower archers guard the Grand exchange. (Just spawn like 10-20 of them in the Grand exchange)

Day of Foresters
+50% Woodcutting, Firemaking and Fletching experience.
+50% chance of acquiring Crushed nests while cutting trees. (Could also make it so that all trees give crushed nests on that day)
Double farming experience for growing trees.

Day of Pest Control
Double Pest Control tokens.
Portals inside Pest control have 200 hitpoints and are unlocked twice as quickly.
Pest Control rounds last half as long and the maximum damage is halved from 2k to 1k.
(TL;DR: Same amount of tokens for half the effort)

Day of the Undead
+10% damage against the undead. (Stacks with salve amulet)
+50% Barrows Brothers rewards. (Multiply the count of Barrows Brothers killed by 1.5, rounded down, before awarding rewards, so it's up to 9 rewards with all 6 Barrows Brothers killed)
Killing 300 ghosts awards players with an untradeable version of a GA ticket. (Can be claimed only once per player)
 
Day of the Mage
+50% Magic and Hitpoints experience when using magic.
+20% chance of preserving runes on cast. (Stacks with Staff of light)
Wizards have a 0.5% chance of dropping Mage's Book.

Day of the Monk
+100% Prayer experience while wearing Monk's robes. (Stacks with altar bonuses in POH for up to 450% xp)
Prayer potions restore 20% more prayer points. (But not restore pots, maybe some other day)
Prayer points regenerate while resting. (at around the same rate or slightly faster than they drain with a single prayer on, so that people can sit around with prayer icons over their heads, because why not)
Monks wander around Varrock. (spawn several around the town and a few inside the GE as well)
 
Day of Tzhaar
+10% damage against Tzhaar monsters. (including all monsters inside the Jad minigame)
+50% tokkul drops. (including Jad minigame rewards)
Every 10th kill in fight pits awards an event point. (Max 10 event points for 100 kills per player or if that's too much then 1 event point every 20th kill for a max of 5 event points?)

Day of Emps Wars
Damage increased by 20% inside the Emps-Wars minigame. (Against both other players and any of the NPCs)
+50% Emps Wars ticket rewards. (rounded up)
Wearing Saradomin or Zamorak team cape and hood together turns players into Ice Queen or Fareed accordingly. (Same effect as pnpc command, operating either of them while wearing both activates it, operating them again turns it off, doesn't work in wilderness or minigames)
 
Day of Extra Rewards
10% chance of getting another casket of the same tier when opening one. (Or whatever Jp said, I haven't done clue scrolls, also same thing with fishing caskets)
20% chance of getting another voting reward box when opening one. (Rare boxes may award any or all of the other 3 reward boxes)
30% chance of getting another reward from burnt chest and crystal chest. (why not?)
Shooting stars contain 2 uncut onyxes and appear twice as often.


These are some examples (I don't know if all of them are doable), more could be added later. Feedback and suggestions are welcome.

Guides / How I do images and videos
« on: August 20, 2018, 01:25:53 pm »
Introduction
I noticed a need for a decent beginner friendly guide for recording videos for things like bug reports, also I noticed that Charr's guide for images is way too complex. So I decided to make a short introduction to ShareX, the tool that I've been using for such things for quite a while.

Requirements
Windows 7, 8.1 or 10
ShareX (Install is rather straightforward, just leave everything ticked and allow it to create the context menu shortcuts because even though not used in this guide, they are sometimes useful.)

Setting up ShareX for optimal usage.
It's ready to be used right away and it should be easy enough to use but here are some settings that I recommend that make it even easier and more comfortable to use.
1st (hotkeys):
Open main window of ShareX, by right-clicking on the icon in taskbar and choosing "Open main window" and then select "Hotkey settings".

From there I recommend creating these 6 hotkeys (you can change them later, but I've personally found those 6 to be the most useful):

Just Press "Add" and select the task, don't change anything else and close the Task settings window to return to the Hotkey settings window.

Do this for each task and then set the hotkeys by clicking on the box that says "none" and press the hotkey that you want to assign to it.


Explanation for what those do:
Capture region - Will freeze the screen and allow you to select a region on the screen to take a screenshot of, automatically detects some windows and different sections in windows, you can just click on the screen when a region is chosen or manually select a region yourself for which there's a magnifying glass allowing you to select with pixel accuracy.
Capture entire screen - Takes a screenshot of the whole screen. Useful as a backup option in case you don't have any time to choose a region on the screen.
Capture active window - Comes in handy mostly for reports because you need to take a screenshot of the whole window, so you save a second that would be spent on selecting the window.
Screen recording (Gif) - Useful for quick recording that can be uploaded directly to imgur (if the file size permits it).
Upload from Clipboard - Automatically detects clipboard contents and uploads images to image sharing websites such as Imgur and text to text sharing websites like Pastebin, after upload the clipboard contents will be replaced with a link to the upload. This is optional as upload can be done automatically after capture, but having tried both, I personally find the extra step of using a hotkey for upload to be more useful, as I often need to edit the image before upload.
Start/Stop screen recording using custom region. - In case you need longer videos that can be uploaded to Youtube.

2nd (After capture tasks):
Go back to the main window and select After capture tasks.

From there select "Copy image to clipboard" and "Save image to file", unselect everything else. (Alternatively if you prefer not using a hotkey for upload then unselect "Copy image to clipboard" and select "Upload image to host" instead, but that will come with a disadvantage of it taking an extra step if instead of uploading you want to edit the image first.)

3rd (After upload tasks):
Next select After upload tasks.

From there simply select "Copy URL to clipboard" and unselect everything else, this will mean that you can easily take a screenshot with one hotkey, upload it with another and then paste the link without ever having to worry about going to Imgur to upload the image.

4th (Destinations):
Select Destinations.

From there you probably want to select Imgur as image uploader and Pastebin as text uploader (if you prefer other sites then there are other options), I've personally never needed the file uploader, URL shortener or URL sharing service, so I'd just leave those to be random, if you do need any of them then feel free to look through the options (note that you shouldn't use URL shorteners in Emps services as they're generally not allowed).

There are other options under Task settings and Application settings that you can feel free to look through, but these are the basic settings that I'd recommend for a start.

How to post images
Charr's guide has this section, so if it's necessary then this is how you post images on forum:
Code: [Select]
Surround the link with [img] and [/img] like this:

[img]https://i.imgur.com/8mEdbbW.png[/img]
Although if you forget then you can just quote other people's posts to see how they've done it and do what they did, just don't reply after you've quoted the post.
You can also just paste the link and while the link is selected, click on the "Insert image" option in forum, which looks like this in the Bright Forest forum theme and should look similar in others, this will automatically surround the selected text with the img tags.

Editing images
ShareX also includes a very easy to use simplistic image editor, to use it simply go to the ShareX main window, right click on a screenshot you've taken and select "Edit image"

The editor includes useful tools for quick edits such as the "Drawing arrow" tool, "Step" tool (that just counts up from 1 so that you can mark the steps in a certain order in your image) and things like highlight tool and blur/pixelate tools. There's also an option to crop the image under "image" option.

Done
You should now be ready to use ShareX, just press the hotkey for whatever you need to do, select the area (if necessary) and if you're recording the screen then once you're done stop the recording to save the file, then press the hotkey for upload (gifs may need to be uploaded through the ShareX main window, just right click on the gif and select "Upload") and you're done. ShareX also keeps a record of the captures you've taken and the files you've uploaded through it, so if you need a link for an image that you've already uploaded then you can just right click on the image in ShareX main window and under "Copy" select "Copy URL".

Here's a gif recorded with ShareX:

Also note that if you want to use gifs on the forum then Imgur links may end with ".gifv" instead of ".gif" and may therefore not work, if that's the case then just delete the "v" from the link, so you get ".gif" and that should fix it.

Any feedback? Is the guide too detailed? Is it not detailed enough? Post your thoughts in the comments down below and don't forget to smash that like button.

The last update to GE made it take average prices between buy price and sell price and was meant to make the GE more fair for the seller.

I thought that it might also be useful to set general store price as the minimum price in GE and if possible then GE could be made to function as the general store to make it even more "fair" for the seller.
What I'm proposing is basically that if an item is sold then the game first checks for whether there are any buying offers that it could match to and if there aren't any then it checks whether the selling price is equal to the general store price and if it is then it's sold to the general store.

If that's not possible then just set the minimum price to be 1 more than the general store price, so that people would know that they are not getting ripped off when they are too lazy to check the general store price for each item.

Off-Topic / High alch
« on: September 18, 2017, 01:45:34 pm »
If you high alch an item and click on a tree then you can alch another item immediately afterwards.


In the beginning I'm spam clicking alch just to show for comparison how slow alching normally is, whereas with the bug if one isn't as clumsy with the mouse as I am, they could alch several items per second.

Guides / How to fix forum.
« on: May 05, 2017, 09:43:35 pm »
Introduction
This is a guide for anyone who despises changes.
I'm not an expert at any of this, so these solutions will be really basic and inflexible.


Requirements:
A modern browser that supports uBlock Origin (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Edge) and Stylus(Chrome, Firefox, Opera) extensions.
This guide shows how to fix the forum on Chrome, setting everything up may be different in other browsers.


How To Remove New Emotes
Change:
There are some new emotes. That definitely counts as a change and can't be tolerated.

This is what the problem looks like:


What you'll be creating:


Requirements:
uBlock Origin browser extension (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Edge)

Step 1:
Click on the uBlock Origin icon.

Click on "Open the dashboard".

Click on "My filters".


Step 2:
Enter this text:
Code: [Select]
||emps-world.net/forum/Smileys/default/*.png

Step 3:
Apply changes.


Step 4:
Refresh the forum page to apply filter to shoutbox.


Fixed!


How To Remove Discord
Change:
There's a new thing next to Shoutbox.

This is what the problem looks like:


What you'll be creating:

Step 1:
Click on the uBlock Origin icon.

Click on "Enter element picker mode".


Step 2:

Select "Create" in the window that pops up.




Fixed... but it still looks different, so continue with the Shoutbox Width Fix.


How To Increase Shoutbox Width
Change:
Shoutbox width was changed to 75% of what it was before.

This is what the problem looks like:


What you'll be creating:

Step 2:
Fill the page following these three steps:
1. Copy and paste this into Code 1:
Code: [Select]
#shoutbox {
    width: calc(100%/0.75);
}

2. Make sure that the rule applies to "URLs on the domain" and
Code: [Select]
emps-world.net
3. Give your style a name, make sure that "enabled" is ticked and then click Save.





Fixed!


How To Fix Avatars
Change:
Some avatars are huge.

This is what the problem looks like:


What you'll be creating:


Requirements:
Stylus browser extension(Chrome, Firefox, Opera).

Step 1:
Click on the Stylus icon in the toolbar.

Edit the style created in the Shoutbox Width Fix (or create a new style if you'd like).


Step 2:
Copy and Paste this at the end of Code 1.
Code: [Select]
.avatar {
    max-height: 100px;
    max-width: 100px;
}

Make sure that the style applies to "URLs on the domain" and
Code: [Select]
emps-world.net
Make sure that the style has a name, that Enabled is ticked and press Save.





Fixed!


How To Fix Spoiler Color
(for Bright Forest theme)
What spoilers look like:


Here's how to change the colors into this:


Step 1:
Open the Stylus Theme that you created (or if you haven't then you can find out how to do so in other sections of the guide).

Step 2:
Paste this at the end of Code 1 and then save the theme:
Code: [Select]
div[class^='sp-wrap'] {
background-color: #dbe8b8;
border-left: 1px solid #999;
border-right: 1px solid #999;
-webkit-border-radius: 3;
-moz-border-radius: 3;
border-radius: 3px;
}
div[class^='sp-wrap'] div[class^='sp-body'] {
    background-color: #e9f1d5;
}



What spoilers are changed to:


Fixed!


Other Fixes

How To Fix Voting
What's this about?
Would you like to vote but don't like how much effort it takes to open the voting sites one by one? Wouldn't it be nicer if you could just click a bookmark, log in, click the same bookmark again and have it open all the voting sites on which you haven't voted yet?

What you'll be creating:


Step 1:
Create a new bookmark. In Chrome you can just right-click on the bookmarks bar and select "Add page..."

Give it a name, save it to bookmarks bar and change the URL to this:
Code: [Select]
javascript:{if(window.location.href=='https://emps-world.net/vote'){el=document.querySelectorAll("[src='./img/attention.png']");for(var i=0;i<el.length;i++){el[i].click();};}else{window.location.href='https://emps-world.net/vote';}};void(0);

Step 2:
Click the bookmark, log in (if not already logged in), click it again and then you're on your own.


Now vote!

Feedback / Karamja agility arena obstacles' clickable areas are too big.
« on: August 04, 2016, 08:23:33 am »
To start off this is what I think the clickable areas for obstacles should be:

Obstacles are colored, clicking on the areas that I've colored should count as clicking on the obstacle, left clicking on other areas should count as walking to that spot.

This is what they currently are:

Clicking on any of the colored areas counts as the obstacle/ticket dispenser. The black spots are climbing ropes from lower floor, clicking on those areas doesn't do anything, those should not be there either.

That was from a good angle, but moving the view around going in different directions the viewing angle is more often something like this:


The problem now is that trying to click on the ground to go to the "matrix" obstacle would only result in the character climbing over the low wall.

Resolved Bug Reports / transferring coins to ironman accounts
« on: July 05, 2016, 09:40:29 pm »
Because it's possible to buy and sell member tickets on ge with ironman accounts as well as to trade member tickets to ironman accounts then it's possible to buy a member ticket with a non-ironman account, trade it to the ironman for free, sell it for 1 gp less than the lowest price was on ge and buy it with the non-ironman account on grand exchange (and repeat only losing 1 gp overall, because the main would only buy it for 1 gp higher price the very first time). Which will mean that one can transfer coins to their ironman.
That may sound confusing. What I mean is that let's say that the lowest price for member ticket is 10m. One can buy a member ticket for 10m with their main account, trade it to ironman, put it on ge for 9,999,999 coins on the ironman. Buy a member ticket for 9,999,999 coins with their main (or let anyone else buy it) and the ironman gets 9,999,999 coins from nothing.
People could easily transfer billions to their ironman with this, which would kind of ruin the idea of ironman accounts.

I would propose that ironman accounts shouldn't be able to sell member tickets at all. Not sure if that can be done without removing the ability for ironman accounts to buy member tickets on ge but I don't think that it should remain how it is now.

Resolved Bug Reports / clone bug
« on: June 26, 2016, 09:44:26 pm »

TL;DW: a clone of my character is stuck where I logged in, mimics the armour I wear and the emotes I use. No idea how to force it, I was just switching from world 2 to 1 by clicking join on someone who was offline at the time.


It's just something that happened after Mary encouraged me to try to get to world 3, by logging into world 3 and getting me to right click on her name in friends list and choosing join (the other bug I posted). I was trying to get back into World 3 for the 5th or so time and trying to finally figure out how to force the world 3 bug and do it without Mary's assistance, when this happened instead.
She thought it might be important so she told me to keep this post even after posting the other topic.
