CityMod's database system is a complete rehash of my Jassy system which I used in CRP. Here's a side by side comparison.
If you're going to rip off my code at least give credit.

I am deeply sorry this had to happen, Jasa.  I'll tell my recollection of this incident to further clarify how this came to be:

Before CityMod had been 'officially' started, I had been asking around the community, looking for a database system to use because, at the time for some reason, I didn't fully grasp the concept.  Regardless, I eventually found someone with a working system who was willing to make a trade.  Sadly, since I don't have a very good memory, I can only pin that persons name down with about 50% certainty to be 'snk12'.  It could be someone else, but I faintly remember his name.  This person offered me a database template to build upon in exchange for some snippets of code to fix the bugs and problems that he had in the CityRPGX add-on he was hosting at the time.  I should mention, this memory of a person hosting the CityRPGX gamemode is basically one of the only ways I'm able to identify snk12.  Randomness, being the creator of CityRPGX should be able to verify that he gave snk12 his mod to host a year or two ago.  I had also asked snk12 who coded the database because I knew he wasn't too proficient in coding, but he wouldn't tell me, and at the time I really didn't care to know.  That was my first mistake.  I should've pursued the original creator.  My second was using the database this whole time without giving credit where credit was and is due.

I'm at fault here and I admit it.  Since it's now revealed that you're the original owner, Jasa, it's up to you.  Would you like me to completely rewrite your parts of the database system or do I have you're permission to keep using it?

Here's an updated version: Jassy.cs
This version supports saving data with multiple fields through TABs. The variables are loaded in the exact same format so you won't need to recode anything. Each database created also has its own simGroup. It has much better saving and loading times and no need for an 'autoload' file because it just loads every data file in the database's folder.

If you wish to use the updated version or the outdated version I ask that you keep the className as "Jassy" and put my name somewhere at the top of the database script.

The variation of RPG built upon was supposedly a version by Cromedome. I initially took the liberty in cleaning up the code and adding some stuff but the issue was that this strain built upon one of Iban's CityRPG modes was just too way inherently broken and sloppy, except the database system, which was nice. I never did respect snk12 in anyway shape or form or his (terrible) server, the server was just a guinea pig for large scale demonstrations of the mod. A bit richardish I suppose, but I think the guy was 12 or 14 or something.

I will eventually return after learning some college courses in programming (particularly C#) and rebuild the whole concept of CityRPG from the ground up, anyway. I know (I think) how to fix it, anyway.

All the bumps. I'm not wishing to pressure anyone to projects they don't have time/energy/motivation for, but a update would be very welcome. The master server needs some fresh ideas. Lately, mostly after Furdle's server closing the only worthwhile server on (and a bloody good one) is Boss Battles, but because there are less and less old-school players and more and more new players, the only servers getting a consistent audience are Tezuni's, RP servers and a occasional decent server that lacks a hosting server so is down more than it is up..
