This document described the configuration syntax of monopd game configuration files. See the the actualy configuration files within games/ to see how this syntax is applied. Configuration Groups ==================== Board configuration group. Possible values are: General, Board, CardGroups, Cards, EstateGroups and Estates. General ------- The group contains properties specific to the gameboard or all elements on it. Possible key/value pairs are: name=string The name of the game configuration. "Atlantic", for example. description=string A short description of the game. "The classic Monopoly game", for example. Board ----- The group contains properties specific to the gameboard or all elements on it. Possible key/value pairs are: go=int Defines which estate (0 being the first to be defined, 1 the next, and so on) is the estate where players should start. bgcolor=#rrggbb Defines a background color for the board and is the default for all estates. CardGroups ---------- The group has no specific properties of its own, but it has group elements/members (sets of cards) with properties (in the regular key/value pairs). [string] Group element. String defines the name of the element. Possible key/value pairs for cardgroups are: color=#rrggbb bgcolor=#rrggbb Define a (text) color and background color for these cards. Different card groups on real gameboards usually have different colors as well. Cards ----- The group has no specific properties of its own, but it has group elements (the cards) with properties (in the regular key/value pairs). [string] Group element. String defines the name or caption of the game card. Valid key/value pairs are: group=string Defines to which group this card belongs. String must be identical to the name of one of the cardgroups previously defined. Monopd will ignore cards without a matching group. nextutil=0|1 TODO... tojail=0|1 TODO... advanceto=int Defines an estate a token should advance to. The integer defines the n-th estate defined later, 0-indexed. advance=int Defines a number of fields to advance. Can be negative, in which case a token should be taken back a number of fields. pay=int Defines an amount which should be paid upon getting this card. Can be negative, in which case an amount of money is given to the player. ################################### TODO: write docs for remaining part ################################### nextrr=1 jailcard=1 payhouse=25 payhotel=100 payeach=50 tojail=1 payeach=-50 payhouse=40 payhotel=115 [Dark Purple] color=#6a346a houseprice=50 [Light Blue] color=#9cceff houseprice=50 [Purple] color=#9c0062 houseprice=100 [Orange] color=#ff9900 houseprice=100 [Red] color=#ff0000 houseprice=150 [Yellow] color=#ffff39 houseprice=150 [Green] color=#009900 houseprice=200 [Blue] color=#0000ff houseprice=200 [Railroads] price=200 rentmath=12.5*(2^x) rentvar=ownedbyplayer [Utilities] price=150 [Go] [Mediterranean Avenue] group=Dark Purple price=60 rent0=2 rent1=10 rent2=30 rent3=90 rent4=160 rent5=250 [Community Chest] takecard=Community Chest [Baltic Avenue] group=Dark Purple price=60 rent0=4 rent1=20 rent2=60 rent3=180 rent4=320 rent5=450 [Income Tax] tax=200 taxpercentage=10 [Reading Railroad] group=Railroads [Oriental Avenue] group=Light Blue price=100 rent0=6 rent1=30 rent2=90 rent3=270 rent4=400 rent5=550 [Chance] takecard=Chance [Vermont Avenue] group=Light Blue price=100 rent0=6 rent1=30 rent2=90 rent3=270 rent4=400 rent5=550 [Connecticut Avenue] group=Light Blue price=120 rent0=8 rent1=40 rent2=100 rent3=300 rent4=450 rent5=600 [In Jail / Just Visiting] jail=1 [St. Charles Place] group=Purple price=140 rent0=10 rent1=50 rent2=150 rent3=450 rent4=625 rent5=750 [Electric Company] group=Utilities [States Avenue] group=Purple price=140 rent0=10 rent1=50 rent2=150 rent3=450 rent4=625 rent5=750 [Virginia Avenue] group=Purple price=160 rent0=12 rent1=60 rent2=180 rent3=500 rent4=700 rent5=900 [Pennsylvania Railroad] group=Railroads [St. James Place] group=Orange price=180 rent0=14 rent1=70 rent2=200 rent3=550 rent4=750 rent5=950 [Community Chest] takecard=Community Chest [Tennessee Avenue] group=Orange price=180 rent0=14 rent1=70 rent2=200 rent3=550 rent4=750 rent5=950 [New York Avenue] group=Orange price=200 rent0=18 rent1=80 rent2=220 rent3=600 rent4=800 rent5=1000 [Free Parking] [Kentucky Avenue] group=Red price=220 rent0=18 rent1=90 rent2=250 rent3=700 rent4=875 rent5=1050 [Chance] takecard=Chance [Indiana Avenue] group=Red price=220 rent0=18 rent1=90 rent2=250 rent3=700 rent4=875 rent5=1050 [Illinois Avenue] group=Red price=240 rent0=20 rent1=100 rent2=300 rent3=750 rent4=925 rent5=1100 [B & O Railroad] group=Railroads [Atlantic Avenue] group=Yellow price=260 rent0=22 rent1=110 rent2=330 rent3=800 rent4=975 rent5=1150 [Ventnor Avenue] group=Yellow price=260 rent0=22 rent1=110 rent2=330 rent3=800 rent4=975 rent5=1150 [Water Works] group=Utilities [Marvin Gardens] group=Yellow price=280 rent0=22 rent1=120 rent2=360 rent3=850 rent4=1025 rent5=1200 [Go to Jail] tojail=1 [Pacific Avenue] group=Green price=300 rent0=26 rent1=130 rent2=390 rent3=900 rent4=1100 rent5=1275 [North Carolina Avenue] group=Green price=300 rent0=26 rent1=130 rent2=390 rent3=900 rent4=1100 rent5=1275 [Community Chest] takecard=Community Chest [Pennsylvania Avenue] group=Green price=320 rent0=28 rent1=150 rent2=450 rent3=1000 rent4=1200 rent5=1400 [Short Line] group=Railroads [Chance] takecard=Chance [Park Place] group=Blue price=350 rent0=35 rent1=175 rent2=500 rent3=1100 rent4=1300 rent5=1500 [Luxury Tax] tax=75 [Boardwalk] group=Blue price=400 rent0=50 rent1=200 rent2=600 rent3=1400 rent4=1700 rent5=2000
