Progression Focus

Something that I feel LoGD was (is) lacking, is new places added as each level is gained, to keep players interested. So, hopefully Darton City can make better use of this.
So far:
Level 1: Normal areas (weapons, armour, Inn, bank)
Level 2: Pawn Shop
Level 3: Wayward Path
Level 4: Darton Club
Level 5: Convenience Store
Level 6:
Level 7:
Level 8:
Level 9:
Level 10:
Level 11:
Level 12:
Level 13:
Level 14:
Level 15: Gang Boss
As you can see a lot of them are empty, so ideas would be great.
*ALSO* I have just added a Daily Flash Game for all levels. It will appear once you have used up all turns.
*ALSO turn ticker now gone, you'll get 30 turns per day and the days are now every four hours.

updates

Online attacking is in place. You can use the hospital to get out or the new day button also works if you are impatient.
Also, there is now a specialty. You can add it to yourself it by buying something from the bartender ;)
For those who can't work it out, Speak to Patrick in the Squeeze Inn and buy some LSD. You'll need some items first.
To Do List
Green Dragon Staff – 2006-08-25 15:58:58
Not Done:
- creatures in the suburbs (forest) - Done
- titles not changed yet Done, they are colours only, titles will be available as a custom buy
- armour and weaponry haven't been done yet - Done
- experience factor has not been adjusted down yet Done
- Area to exchange stolen goods (gems) for turns - Done
- Dragon translated to fighting a gang boss Done
- "Races" will be gangs you belong to. Done
- Specialties will be rebranded into something else.
- Graveyard still has hotkeys and the old text Should all be done. Haunt a Foe will be replaced.
- Seth is mentioned in the music area of the Inn, will be changed to Dave Some areas are fixed.
- Cedrik still mentioned in some places. MightyE and Pegasus still mentioned in the Wayward path.
Known issues:
- Mounts not done - including the Hippocampus that it tells you you steal in the Wayward path.
- Cedrik's Lottery module (Jack's Gambling) has an extraneous ? in the title which cannot be removed. The code file will need to be edited so this hasn't been done yet. It does not affect gameplay at all. Doesn't appear to be easily fixable =(
- Language Selector in the Settings will replace all the text with the standard "Green Dragon" text. Done, thank you to Kickme
- Some areas have Americanised spelling still. Saucy is Australian so things like colour, armour will be more common.
Character Expiration
italic girl SaucyWench – 2006-08-13 20:23:47
Right now, you are all given a New Day button when you join, so all of your characters are pretend staff. This means your characters do not automatically delete after 30 days of being logged out. Please keep in mind that the 30 days is still the limit, and if you're inactive longer I'll be deleting you to keep the place running fast. You only need to log in for one minute a month to stop that from happening. Thanks.
New Website Address
italic girl SaucyWench – 2006-08-08 20:41:44
So Darton City now has a new name and a new home at DartonCity.com . Please update your bookmarks. It may take a few days for your ISP to update to be able to "see" the game at DartonCity.com so if the new link doesn't work for you yet, you can use
http://gemdust.com/black/
or
http://gemdust.com/dartoncity/
I will leave them in place for a week or so.
Oops.
italic girl SaucyWench – 2006-08-08 00:47:33
Major oops. I deleted everyone, including myself. Thankfully I was able to get back in. Sorry everyone.

This is a project to create a new game using the Legend of the Green Dragon code. I aim to do more than just change the text.
Dalton City is a game that has many of the same elements found in LoGD, but not everything is the same. The main difference is the way you level. Levelling will be completely different and not anywhere near as fast as you can do in LoGD. I see no reason to have people getting DKs every few days the way you can in LoGD. That's not interesting for a lot of people. So experience in Dalton City will be much harder to get and there will be other things to do with turns besides killing creatures.
Not everything from LoGD will have an "equivalent" here. There are plenty of servers out there that do nothing but change text, so if you just wanted another flavour of LoGD perhaps a Hogwarts version, or a Space version of LoGD might interest you more. I believe MightyE and Kendaer did a great job even on the basic functions of the code and plan to build on it.
So far very few special events are installed and no races or specialties. It is probably going to be difficult to make the existing ones fit into the Dalton environment. They will be coming eventually. As far as I can see everything in the game is now translated except for a couple of special events, and the dragon etc. If you find anything with the "standard" text, please leave a message somewhere for us to see so that we can correct it.
Feedback is welcomed - well, on anything except for "where is (some item from LoGD)" or "it takes too long to level". Also, hotkeys are removed on purpose. The translation completely screwed them up. If you see any please let us know what you have seen and where.
Enjoy.
