 ====== Create a universe ======
-In this section, we will discuss the data that allow a universe to exist! Unlike the server system(which makes it possible for the universe to be available AND also making it "live" for the client) that connects them On [[http://www.ryzomcore.org/2013/02/ryzom-core-data-is-everywhere.html]] without being an exact and exhaustive translation thereof.

 ===== The different types of data used =====
 ==== Base MySQL ====
-This database system is used for the services and the administration of the server, this does not therefore directly concern the world except that it is in this base that are determined the accounts of the players and their [[Commands_shard#the_rights|privileges]].

 ==== The Georges Sheets ====
-\\ In these files, stored in sources in //code/ryzom/common/data_leveldesign/leveldesign//, the game contains the definition of all the elements to be defined: objects, spells, creatures ... The basic encyclopedia that contains the definition of all the elements that can be called, the bricks that will be used to build the world.

 ==== The Primitives ====
-Once all your items, spells, actions, skills etc. Defined in the Georges Sheets, you have to assemble all the bricks to make a world, this is the work of the World Editor, which is much more than a software of creation of map, It is he who makes it possible to compose the world, by sections.

This one is much more than a software for map creation, because it also makes it possible to compose the world in sections.

-\\ This is where it becomes possible to create a specific character, assigned to a task, in a given place. The different bricks composed in the Georges Sheets are used for this purpose. Again, there is a hierarchy system that allows you to define groups of NPCs, creatures, and so on. To then place elements of these groups without having to redefine individually each object/creature/character.

 ==== The Persistent Data Record ====
-With the Georges Sheets and Primitives, we get the state of the world when the server starts, at the moment 0. But it will immediately begin to live, the players, through their characters, will make modifications, interact ... To save the world's evolution, keep the memory of the last state of each thing, the Ryzom Core server writes files to the disk without going through a database system.

+\\ This kind of data is stored in //code/ryzom/server/save_shard//, in the form of binary files.
-\\ Although it is not normally necessary to do this, it is possible to edit the data using the //pdr_util// utility, which transforms the binary pdr into an editable xml. It can then be reassembled with the same tool. This can be used to massively update data on a large number of characters or creatures.

-<WRAP tip> Let's take a sample file: //code/ryzom/server/save_shard/characters/001/account_1_0_pdr.bin//. \\ We see that we are in the part devoted to the characters("characters" in English). The subfolder, 001, is used only to prevent too much data from being stored in the same directory, so the system automatically organizes them into subdirectories. Then we see "account", that means a player account, then "1", so it is the account with ID 1. Then we read 0, it is the first character slot(out of 4 possible ). In this binary file, there is therefore all the data of the first character of the server's first player: inventory, position, skills etc. </WRAP>
