# Native Visitors and Contracts
|
|
|
|
The graphical runtime remains MASM. The user's six personality records in
|
|
`npc_mind_data.inc` are retained. The visible people now read the positions of
|
|
those records instead of a separate, unrelated square-loop animation.
|
|
|
|
`npc_life.inc` owns bounded 32x32 BFS navigation, millisecond walking with
|
|
fractional carry, standing, seated lounge visits, entrance departures and
|
|
replacement visitors. All proposed steps check the existing body-clearance,
|
|
furniture/stage collision rules, the player and other visitors. A blocked person
|
|
stops animating their feet and chooses another destination after waiting.
|
|
The six active slots alternate between twelve identities. Standing/walking and
|
|
seated poses use the existing interior sprite pack; a full animated transition
|
|
into a chair and additional directional interior poses are not implemented yet.
|
|
Exterior people use outdoor sprites and long sidewalk routes, not courtyard
|
|
pacing or indoor guest sprites.
|
|
|
|
Press E when the conversation prompt appears. The owned graphical modal has
|
|
accept, reward and close commands. Mouse, 1/2, Enter, 0 and Escape work without
|
|
console input. The conversation holds the scene while it is open.
|
|
|
|
Twelve contract types cover played/won rounds of native coin, blackjack, poker,
|
|
European roulette, 777 and Durak. The any-round contract also counts Russian
|
|
roulette, Buckshot, dice, cups and skill checks. Only settled paid rounds count, with wins
|
|
requiring a positive result rather than a push. Progress starts after acceptance;
|
|
tasks remain associated with visitor identity even while that person is absent.
|
|
Offers rotate with the local calendar and visitors. Rewards range from $150 to
|
|
$700 and are capped by the game's existing billion-dollar balance limit.
|
|
|
|
Each local save has a companion `.npc` journal. It contains a date, bounded
|
|
accepted/claimed masks, capped progress and a checksum. Truncated, malformed,
|
|
wrong-date and cross-profile journals are not imported. Completed contracts
|
|
cannot be claimed twice after closing/reopening the dialog or restarting.
|
|
Journal write failures do not award repeatable money. The existing wallet save
|
|
and companion journal are separate writes; an abrupt power loss between them
|
|
can lose the reward credit, so this is not a transactional banking system.
|
|
The original save format and the legacy forty-task daily pool are unchanged.
|
|
|
|
Native tests exercise ten reachable destinations, equal-time movement at three
|
|
update rates, two minutes of body-clearance checks for all six visitors, capped
|
|
progress, early/double claims, persistence, profile isolation, day rollover,
|
|
mouse dialog commands and Escape. They use only journals inside build fixtures.
|
|
`check_npc_life.py --parity` checks three native framebuffer captures and
|
|
tested/shipping procedure parity.
|
|
|
|
## Multiplayer Tables
|
|
|
|
The user's legacy four-seat poker/personality code is preserved. It is not
|
|
called from the graphical casino because it uses console input/output. The
|
|
existing native tables remain heads-up. Native three/four-seat poker needs
|
|
proper repeated betting turns, ties, all-ins/side pots, exit settlement and
|
|
seated opponent rendering before it can replace that loop. Russian roulette
|
|
and Buckshot likewise still use their existing two-actor scenes.
