A while back I played on a server that had a few interesting features, I now find myself running a server and seeking similar server-side abilities, but have no idea to achieve them. People who ever played on any of the 'Persistent Worlds' should be familiar with these.

*Server-side dice (to prevent dice cheats)
*Server controlled editable roster
*Server tracked time (ie a player types get_days and the server tells them its been X days, hours, minutes since start of game).

I know its possible to do all this, I just don't know how. I'm currently using the old OpenRPG server gui (not Traipse unfortunately) because other people I know haven't taken the plunge and there are backwards compatibility issues.

If anyone knows how to implement the above you would be my hero.

That's the community server version 1.7.2. You might be able to obtain a copy of the source code if you go to a server that is running it. I know of no link.

On the other hand, you might want to wait until the next Traipse milestone is released. The next Traipse server has a programmable bot. I will also be adding server side dice rolling.
