Game Logic in Moodle Map editor

From MoodleDocs
  1. in games map editor lets you create hills, place units, and basicly desgin the landscape and terrian. before saving it and then playing it.
  2. in moodle, creating categories for courses, creating courses, creating activities / resources, adjusting blocks. is already there.
    1. but in order advanced editor to obtain information it needs. for more advance setups and possibilities. moodle -> turn on edit. needs some facelift adjustments.
    2. icon / id number for each category / course / activity / resource / block. this ID number when placed into advanced editor. would be a way to let the advanced editor know what you are talking about.
    3. a "site map" may be another possibility
  3. technically ID numbers are not needed. but is an attempt to solve some issues. when regular folks, go and try and find something. and make sure they have selected the correct thing in the "advanced editor", by visualizing it directly within moodle itself.

below was quick attempt to add some "ID #'s" to a test course page. in attempt to show some sort of ID number. that a person could copy and paste into advanced editor.

clicking through moodle

i have not actually looked into moodle code for this. so take it as you will.

  1. is there a javascript onclick or on submit for php handling (more wanting php end), that registers various clicks and what is happening within moodle via everything going into a log file some place? even without a log is this information obtainable?

am more looking at a ITS (intelligent tutor system) were an AI script keeps track of folks within moodle site. and possibly nudge/push them to other areas.

    1. kinda like a group of folks clustering in hall way in school. but needing to get them to move on. to other things.
    2. or in a MMO (massive multi-player online) game. were folks may crowd in certain areas. vs getting out and about to other areas of the game.
  1. in many games if you goto xyz area, a "chat window" will show nearby folks and who is currently online.
    1. is there a way to expand on that some... so an AI. could take advantage of information?
