■░░▒▒▒▓▓▓███▐ ▌ The Mafia Version 1.02 written by David Proper ▐ ▌███▓▓▓▒▒▒░░░■
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
"The Mafia? What's that?" - Well, it's an orginization that deals in orginized
crime.
"Ha-ha. Very funny. I meant what is this program." - Ya, I know what ya ment.
Just messing with ya. This is a simple little program. You know how The
Federation will now and then post a reward for the destruction of some bad
trader's ship? Well, this is the same thing for the Underground.
The Mafia keeps track of the player's alignment. If it goes up, they post a
reward for the desctruction of his ship. Heres how it works:
Day 1: Player "White Night" has an alignment of 1000. The Mafia does nothing.
Day 2: Player "White Night" has an alignment of 1050. The Mafia posts a
reward of 50 credits in the Underground.
When it posts a reward, it clears out the user that is able to claim it. So if
they don't claim thier reward before The Mafia is run, they will loss it.
Calling the program is simple also:
MAFIA datapath [multiplier]
Where datapath is the drive/path of the Trade Wars v1.03d data files. IE:
MAFIA e:\tw\tradewar
You can put an ending \ on the path if ya want. if not Mafia will add it for
ya like with almost all my other programs that need a path.
The optional Multiplier is a number to multiply the reward by, thus making it
higher. So If there alignment went up by 10 points, and the multiplier was 5,
then the reward posted would be 50.
There was a little "glitch" that if a player was destroyed and someone came
back, there alignment as saved in the mafia would be the alignment of the
previous player. So saw someone died with like 10,000 alignment, the new
player would ahve to have at least 10,001 before the mafia would start posting
awards. Not that great. Well I did something that should fix that problem.
If the alignment goes down it'll replace the old value with the new value.
This should fix it and make rewards more frequent.

The following people (accualy PERSON) deserves thanks for sending money in
for one or more of my programs:

That should be enough. Now the stuff no one reads.. If you like this or
any of the other programs I've done that you have or have seen, please send
me something for my time and testing. I currently don't have a "real" job and
my only income is from my BBS and my programming. Do you know how hard it is
for a 21 year old computer nerd to get a job in a small hick town?
Send any donations, or your own programs that you've written to be placed on
my BBS to:
David Proper
927 Maple Avenue, NW
New Philadelphia, Ohio 44663-1522
Or if you just want to check out my BBS, which has all my publicly released
programs online, give my BBS a call:

Yea, I also have a Sound Blaster Pro so I can do any audio samples for the
users that they may want.
A quick little thank you goes out to Dan Roseen, SysOp of Nite Owl BBS
206-631-4949. He gave the TW file formats to one of my users that called his
system looking for them. Thanks Dan, we need more SysOps like that who are
willing to help out there users and other SysOps. (You wouldn't believe the
bullshit in this area between the local systems. It's unbelievable)
And of course thanks to Jason Boyd for writting the text file that had the
file formats.
Guess that's the end of this file. Increase the peace. Later.
