Fake Player?
Gadgethm:
Is it at all possible to add a fake player to the player list? I've done some searching, and so far, I can't find any info. I'm not talking about clientsided either, I mean a fake player as in, someone joins and sees the player in the player list.
Destiny/Zack0Wack0:
No. Adding fields to the player list is now handled securely due to certain people (Zoneark + Truce and other acquainted) faking that kompressor was hosting a server. Most of the Blockland community was fooled.
Why do you need it anyway?
Gadgethm:
I was hoping to add a bot to the player list, thus giving it a true fake client. That way, I could give it commands the same way I would to a player. Meh, I suppose I don't need it.
MegaScientifical:
I have some old code from like TBM that added ghost players. I don't understand what Zack0 means exactly, but isn't there other ways to do it? With stuff like player handling, there's always a way... Just make sure it isn't used abusively.
Gadgethm:
The only reason for this was to make it seem more realistic if I said "Kandrid ban idiot" and the bot "Kandrid" banned the player.
See if you use the command banBLID, then it doesn't have a sender, it just bans the player. While it's useable, it would be kinda cool if the ban message was "You have been banned for 10 minutes by Kandrid, reason "HurbDurp"
I suppose it's not needed, and certainly, I wouldn't want to hack my way to it. But still, it would be kinda neat to have a fake player who was AI controlled.
