Game rating system. (Trying to make this client sided) FILES AVAILABLE!

[Azjherben]

Code: [Select]

switch$(%message)
{
   case 1: %cansend = 1;
   case 2: %cansend = 1;
   case 3: %cansend = 1;
   ...
   case 9: %cansend = 1;
   case 10: %cansend = 1;
   default: %cansend = 0;
}A server-side mod is abusable. It'd be really, really easy to just set up my server to send you a 10/10 rating every eight seconds with a random BL_ID to make mine appear the best.

A client-side mod doesn't work unless everyone has it - the ratings are a bit useless if only ten people out of the 13,000 or so Blockland currently has can rate it at all.

Hmm, I've been trying to get around that.
Like make a pass word and hide it in the script.

I want to see it work and be tested by people, and I'll find some way around it.

Too bad its against the rules to DSO.

[Azjherben]

Too bad you can't DSO.

What?

[Tom]

DSO encrypts the files so they can't be edited.

[Space Guy]

Passwords in the file can be taken out really, really easily. Don't bother.

A DSO is an encrypted script file which cannot be read by people but still run by Blockland. However, Blockland uses a different version of the DSO format to other Torque games and Badspot has not included the compiling functions in the game to make files into DSOs - only he can make them, that's what allGameScripts.cs.dso and allGClientScripts.cs.dso are.

What about a pass locked .zip file.
Or a ton of comment spam and really long variable strings that are encoded a ton.

[Azjherben]

Okay, here is a good example.
This is just a # rating my name and an example server name:

Locked zips probably won't be allowed either. People would still be able to find the function if you did lock it somehow.

What do you mean allowed?
Will bad-spot personally come and check every zip to see if it's locked then personally go to every person and delete their zip file?

[Space Guy]

I doubt Blockland will be able to read it at all if it's encrypted.

Also, please remove the massive page-stretching hash code...

Badspot probably doesn't want locked zip files because people could put malicious code in it and it would be hard for people to find out.

[Space Guy]

Plus, there's plenty of zip password breakers on the internet.

Maliciouis? Just from a .cs file? Doubt it could do much. If it did, than just delete it.

People could create lots of little things. Like TBM.

Wasn't that an old competitor of RTB?
