Hey, I downloaded this! (An add-on suggestion)

For safety, if someone download something they are not sure is 100% safe, then bad luck to them

if their files are overwritten then they can get replacements from someone else.

one safety thing is for whoever to put a big sign thing, that lasts for 15 seconds before it lets you go past (but the cancel button will stay)

BEWARE WHAT YOU DOWNLOAD[/color]

Gets rid of the impatient AND the handicapped that actually read the signs. And then when they complain about the viruss all we can say is "Didn't you read the warning?"

you cannot freaking get viruses from torquescript unless it it a VERY bad code

OR if it was made to be malicious

It's possible to make Torque go and blank every file in the Blockland folder if the client downloads something. Since Torque is limited to its root directory that's the most you can do.

Space Guy. There is a function that can load a patch. You can simply re-write the patch file in torquescript and then exec it. Thus the possibilities are endless unless Badspot has added a CRC check to the file (i.e. by connecting to the web and checking CRC) and if he hasn't then he should.

So basically, you can reduce the whole risk thing to 0 if you keep back-ups of your:

- Activation Key
- Add-ons, Maps, and Faces/Decals/Ect.
- Favorites

since it is player-server side, we cant really flag bad downloads >_>'. If we did the host of the malicious file would just take it down. Or noobs that hated a server could flag every download.

Also, by I do not have any internetz, I ment I had -90 in the first place (My first forum was mean to me).


Also, terror, speak more, I am intrigued

No thanks. I don't want to inspire people to ruin the integrity of Blockland :)
