[add menu category

When you type [add <enter> you get a gump. Items and Mobles. in both is subcategorys. both have one called uncatorized.
How do I categorize them? like dyeTubs for example >> how do you put all dyeTubs in to a category?

Have you looked at the code for that command that generates the xml that handles the gump?

Jason, could you be a little more specific? AgentRansack returns 1127 files with add in them, the two obvious are Add.cs and AddGump.cs. AddGump appears to be the result gump of typing [add swor witch would return the seeThrough gump that lists all items with swor in thier names. Add.cs appears to be the base.

ok think I found what you was pointing towards

Alrighty then. Finaly tracked it down to items.cfg and mobles.cfg... Is it safe, ok to edit this file? Only see where it is read -- not find any script that writes to it.

speaking of which, i use the StaticHousing script. and that script crashes the server when I rebuild the add menu. And now i can't use the menu because it crashes the server. Anyone know the fix on this?

It crashes because the code is really bad.

The fix is don't use it I am being serious when I say this. Clearly you don't have the knowlege to fix it, and the code is so poorly done its not even funny.

A simple solution is just don't use it.

I know your not going to like that response. But I have never been one of those people that tell you what you want to hear.

Use the static housing system written and released by Jason, it is coded much better.

that was close to being funny but instead its cute

like bunnies

if something crashes a server then its coded badly, period.

You have a custom script that is crashing the code.

Your going to have to track what is doing it yourself, we cannot do that for you.

I never released a static house sytem, but I know if something is buggy, then it shouldn't be used.

I based my reply on the fact, he said thats what it was.

How can you comment on my reply, based on the fact even he thinks thats the problem.
