Yeah. To make it circular you need to use sin and cosin to get the boundary requirements to make it circular. I can do it I just didn't include it in that example.

If you're making a minimap, you'll need to do something like this:

Code: [Select]

%pos = vectorSub(%position, serverConnection.getControlObject());
%x = getWord(%pos,0);
%y = getWord(%pos,1);
%HUD = MyHud;
%centerx = getWord(%hud.extent,0)/2;
%centery = getWord(%hud.extent,1)/2;
%redDot = new guiBitmapCtrl()
{
	bitmap = "./RedDot";
	visible = 1;
};
%HUD.add(%redDot);
%redDot.position = %centerx + %x SPC %centery + %y;

This is really crude and won't be circular but that should be the basics. I don't see why not.

                iu1 = 1/i;
                iu2 = 2/i;
                iu3 = 3/i;
                if(iu1==0.106 && iu2 == 0.0346 && iu3==0.0146)
                {

%string is a local variable, after you hit enter it is cleared. You must do it on 1 line, or use $string instead of %string.

Oh, there's your question. Yes, the BrickID will change each time it is remade unless a sequence of events identical to each load happens prior, no extra players can join, no people can die, no f8s can be used, etc. Each event that creates a new object will increase it's ID by 1.

Slicksilver555, Slicksilver, Rosli, TripleNickels, Triple Nickels, Slicks555, Slick555 and Dr. S are all banned accounts of mine.

Edit: oh lord, don't tell me it's because you want to keep the post count in that account at 555

OH stuff that is the coolest coincidence I've ever loving seen

Unrelated: are triplenickels and slicksilver the same person? Or do you just act similarly and have the same avatar

Same person. TripNick is a shortening of Triple Nickels, which stands for 3x"5" -> 555 -> [Slicksilver]555.

Furthermore, as Mold said right before me, serverCmdTrust_Invite(gameConnection, string, string) is likely the format for that command.

serverCmdTrust_Invite(findClientByName("NAT3"),"TripNick", 2); likely sends a full trust invite to me from you. I'm not 100% sure, just using logic.

It's an issue of semantics but I'd like to point out that "it kicked nothing" is an active tense sentence with the action "kicked" being done to the subject "nothing". If he had meant that nothing happened, he would have said "it didn't kick anything", or best, "no one was kicked".

In the package, this is how you check the client's IP

I think.

%client.getRawIP();

This is correct.

Well said, I would have followed the same lines.

slick?

Liar, noone makes money from Penny Stocks ever.

This isn't true. Pseudo-financial advisors post alerts somewhat frequently that cause stock prices of penny stocks to jump, which you basically ride and sell at the peak. Last week there were three 100%+ gains off the particular one I use.

No, You just used slick's dad's credit card
