The Ragnarok Deleveled project tries to remove the use of the Base Level from the game, making so not only you can go anywhere you want, but
also your progression shifts towards equipments and classes.
 
This project has been at work just for fun, I've been studying ways of making the level of the monsters and their status, tells how hard it is to face them,
but the program I created - which is used to scale the monsters and item status - isn't stable yet, since depending on the levels and status sum you set
to the players and the monsters, the monsters may either be too easy, or too hard to face, one example you may find while testing, is that Thor Volcano
is actually a end-game instance, because the monsters there has absurd status, most likelly because of the sum of their status values.
 
On other hand, I've been testing the project on a Pre-Renewal server, so I have no idea how the project will work on a Renewal server, because I didn't
built a client for that yet, so basically It's a "test at your own risk" in that case.
 
Do beware aswell, that since base level will no longer be a thing, the grinding may shift towards the job leveling, so better prepare yourself a pack full
of quest npcs or event npcs, or else the game will be boring quickly.
 
The instalation guide is inside the zip file, and enjoy.

Not only merchants can do some zenys by doing comerce, you can make so the players can make zeny by carrying products from one town to another.
This system were inspired on Mabinogi's comerce system, cat paw representants can be spotted inside the towns (or on the lower field in prontera) and you can buy products on it, and then walk all the way to the other town to sell them for more zenys.
It is easy to learn how to make profit on the system, you have to prompt to buy the items that have green text, check out their values though, and the discount they receive, will be shown a list of towns and the prices that the item is going to be bought for there, check out the green text towns because are the towns that you will get more profit, walk to the town and sell the product there. Bandits have the chance of appearing based on the summed value of the items you're carrying with you. The Cat Paw Merchants only cover the area of the 5 main towns, that are from Prontera to Aldebaran, Lutie also have a vendor, If you checked the script, you will notice that npcs from Comodo to Hugel are deactivated, that is because they doesn't have products for sale currently. If you study how the npc works, you will be able to add more products for sale, though. There is a special leveling system for this npc, the Merchant level, you gain exp on it at every sucessful trade you do, the Merchant level increases the weight of items you can carry at once, so buying hundreds of a item when first using the system is impossible. At every 2 hours in server time, the products prices will shuffle, It is recommended to avoid doing trade if you know that you will not reach the other town before the time passes. There is a Daily quest includded, where the npc will ask you to do 5000 Zenys of profit. You can install the npc normally like any other npc, just pay attention, there are two files named item_db.txt and item_avail.txt, you have to go to the db folder of your server, open the files that have the same names, paste the content from the respective file that comes with the npc inside the file in the db folder, then save, do not replace everything right away, It is gonna break your server database and you'll be in a creek.
Why I used the Merchant Test box as model for the items? Easy, who will want to prospect something that they are going to sell for zenys?

The Favor board npc makes so in some fields and maps, there are some maps with favor boards,
and the same map have npcs that
have requests for you to do, like collect apples, or even hunt a monster,
those npcs locations are pointed out by the favor board,
upon helping those npcs, the percentage of the favor board in the map will rise.
When the favor board reaches 100%, the player beside sometimes receiving a reward from the npc that the player completed the last step of the favor board,
the favor board will also award the player with some exp, zenys and maybe even an item.
 
To install the npc, just install like any other npc, the only thing you need to pay attention to is to make the Favor_Board_Func.txt load first, after the line
that the function script is in, you place the favor boards and quests scripts.
 
Currently, there are favor boards in the city of Prontera, the fields around it and in Morocc.
I'm not sure If I'll give continuity to this npc, but as you may notice, the npc is may be modified and edited.
Feel free to edit the npc if you want to fill out other maps of the game for your server.
 
Please take note that the npc were made for pre-renewal, so renewal servers might need some editing.
