Author Topic: C2C Upgrade - Artificial Groups, and requesting info from a person (more?)  (Read 1092 times)

So, I was in a Skype call with some friends, but I couldn't talk due to microphone problems. I had Connect2Chat, and was PMing one of the people on the call, who was speaking my words out loud so everyone could hear me.
wait a minute, couldn't we all just join the off-topic room so everyone could read my messages? Nope, C2C doesn't play well with rooms other than general discussion!
wait a minute, couldn't we just use RTB's built-in group functionality? Nope, that doesn't exist yet!

So this lead me to make artificial groups for RTB. I simply made a new command for the C2C hud (/a), and have it duplicate the message to multiple people. Easy!

Well stuff, I can manipulate stuff with RTB, why not make a location getter, to make the other person tell you their GPS coordinates?
Easy! Simply send the other person this message "!location" and they'll pm you their players location. They have to have this script for it to work.

I made this topic because I intend to release this mod to the public, but two features isn't enough for a pretty release. I can easily add more of the !commands to get more info, but I need ideas for just what info to get!

I need suggestions and beta testers.

I hope this doesn't violate anything with Ephialties, I'm sure his group functionality will be a thousand times better than this stuff, but until he gets his groups working...

Important: This requires Connect2Chat to work. I could've packaged RTB functions directly, but that's a lot harder.

can i beta test :D?
Probably. I need to type up a readme so you know how it works, and get some other beta testers.
You can't exactly test groups with only one person!

Wow, nobody, really?
:panda:

What the hell Brian did you see what he was asking for. He needs suggestions for more features because two is measly.

Aside from being able to remove people from the groups ingame the thing is completely made and functional.
