Poll needs a 'nothing' option

I bet the IPs are local IPs.

Off-topic: This reminds me of when someone in my school printed out hundred of blank pages and the school insisted I did it because "nobody else would know how to"

Modification Help / Re: Missing file: testing.cs!

« on: August 29, 2011, 10:18:15 PM »

File>Save as...
Name the file, change the "Save as type" to "All files"
Add ".cs" to the end of the file. Example: from "Testing" to "Testing.cs"

Or do what I do and disable 'Hide extensions for known file types'
Then I can just make a new text file and change the file extension.

Drama / Re: SupahDude got hacked

The closest thing to 'hacking' that can be done in this game is making and distributing add-ons with backdoor exploits.

These add-ons are usually crap-on'd, but since people are stupid they find ways to use them anyways.

What I posted still allows you to remove items from your inventory the same way you normally would, it just doesn't throw an item in front of you

%var += 5; So this one is higher then or equal to? This adds 5 to %var. Its a shorthand way of type '%var = %var + 5' If%var is equal to 15, after this, %var will be equal to 20
%var -= 5; And this one is lower then or equal to? Same as above, but subtracting 5
%var *= 5; What is this one? Same as above, but multiplying by 5
%var /= 5; No idea what this one is. Dividing by 5
%var = 5; And this one is equal to Setting %var to be equal to 5

if(%var == 5)
{
   //do stuff
}

messageclient(%client, 'bottomprint', %var, 10);

To save and load I prefer

export("$var*", "config/var.cs"); Does this create a .txt file in config? It creates a text file names var.cs, inside config folder. Inside, will be every variable whose name begins with $var. For an example, type export("$Pref*","config/prefs.cs");
exec("config/var.cs");

Suggestions & Requests / Re: The (Near) Solution to Build Stealing

« on: August 28, 2011, 02:40:35 PM »

This has been suggested dozens of times. It's impossible to do.
The server has no control over saving, the client gets all the brick data when they load, they just need to write it to a file.
The only thing the server can control is saving events.

Suggestions & Requests / Re: Object dropper?

« on: August 28, 2011, 02:04:23 PM »

Giving a player an entirely configurable list of items to drop including model, color, etc, would require dynamic datablock creation which isn't doable without complications.

You could use static shapes to allow any model to be used, but I'm not sure if you could change the color. You'd also need to recode things that aren't good to do in TorqueScript, such as basic physics for the shape to fall, and a pickup function. I'm not even sure if they have a onCollision function.

The best (although most limited) way to do this would to be to have a list of predefined items.
