Author Topic: BBC or HTML in Print  (Read 1030 times)

So, I have no Idea how I would code this so I decided to ask you guys.

BBCs, like or TEXT and TEXT.

And HTML,

And if anything is bigger than the screen, it will shorten to fit it.

In Printing,

Like,
Code: [Select]
OnActivate-Client-CenterPrint-[img]http://IMAGELINK[/img]

Some of this is impossible, such as the image thing.

BBC Code is redundant - bulletin board code code (kinda like ATM machine would literally mean automated teller machine machine). It's just BBCode, and if you say BBC you're talking about a British TV channel. More on topic, I don't think this is possible without a client-side mod, and if you want it to be polished you might need an engine change. The only way I can think to do it is to save a .html file and have the client open that, but I don't really know very much on this topic so if someone wants to correct me go ahead.

It isn't HTML though?

I don't see a need for having BBCode in bl text.

Yea, I don't think this will work.

Let me put it a different way,

I noticed how you can put Faces in print text, how does that work?

I know it does not work via internet, more like in the blockland folder somewhere.

They have to download the texture unless you make it a datablock. Which is a terrible way.

you can already do some things
like <color: #000000>text</color>
is that what you mean?

other than that, I know you can put images in there, I just dunno how
you'd probably have to use images that are part of the default game if you wanted everyone to see them, but it's still possible already

<bitmap:Your/File/Path/Here>. Only people who have the file in Your/File/Path can see it though. So if you want everyone to see it, it needs to be a default file.

Code: [Select]
<bitmap:FILELOCATION>

Code: [Select]
<bitmap:FILELOCATION>
Example: <bitmap:add-ons/Face_Default/asciiTerror.png>

<bitmap:Your/File/Path/Here>. Only people who have the file in Your/File/Path can see it though. So if you want everyone to see it, it needs to be a default file.
Or it can be a datablock, people should be able to see it then

isn't that inefficient though

Yes, if you put all your images on datablocks, pretty much useless
