[Pyro-Tech]

@Arten: I just posted that a couple of posts up...it is just a warning...prolly another script of yours is giving you an error

 

[kmwill23]

knives you dont have the global option when you're owner or developer access level...only admin...also can it be changed to where all staff member show up in [st instead of having to turn on show staff in list

I am aware of the accesslevel changes =) There is a fix in place that you will see later tonight.

 

[kmwill23]

Help please at me gives out here it
+ Custom/New Scripts/Systems/Knives/Knives Chat 3.0 Beta 5/General/IrcConnectio n.cs: CS0618: Line 332: ' System. Threading. Thread. Suspend () ' is obsolete: ' Thread. S uspend has been deprecated. Please use other classes in System. Threading, such as Monitor, Mutex, Event, and Semaphore, to synchronize Threads or protect resou rces. http: // go.microsoft.com/fwlink/? linkid=14202 '

Very good!

Thanks for getting this converted and yes it seems to copile good and runs good havent been able to make it crash my shard yet even though i get to see that warning when i try to update some other scripts. Only problem i had was trying to figure out how to set up this new system lol! But i think i got it and have 3 channels on shard (public = world chat)(public2 = region chat) (Staff = which is for staff lol). Had to mention the last one for giggles! Keep up the good work will be watching what else you come out with.

Maybe I have just been up for too many hours straight.. but um.. how do you get the chat to work?

I did [chatsetup and all that.. but i have no idea how to get the global chat to occur.

There is no [chat command... and i'll be damned but i can't figure it out.


***EDIT*** Nevermind, I figured it out... god I am WAY TOO TIRED.****




Tired.

Question, I was woundering if there was a way to make it to where the administrator was the only one who could use the background and text change buttons, and that after the admin (owner whatever) sets it thats the default for all people.
I think this would be a neat function but thats my opinion.

It would be neat, however it does go against my reason for including al lthe customization. Some players can't see some colors against some backgrounds, for whatever reasons. I wanted that customization there so players wouldn't say they didn't like that particular layout.

What you can do, however, is change the default layout. I can add an easy to change variable for this if you wish.

Ignore it for now, but do tell me if it happens again. Sometimes that will pop up between updates.

 

[Rosey1]

I've gotten that too. Not sure why.

 

[Ki Frost]

Hey kmwill if its not to much to ask can you add that feature to an update? make it like a command to enable it or something that way it can be done either way. (the skin default option)

 

[Tru]

That will help, thanks!

I am not sure how you are able to trigger this crash. The only time this can occur is if you manage to create a null character, and the chat system attempts to create a null data segment. I can't reproduce this, and it is an eror that would trip every single tester up. I will wait to see if more people get this error before I patch. Otherwise, I will prevent this for the next release.

It happened for me when I added accounts manually.
It also appears to have happened when trying to create a new account with the server set to 1 account per IP and the IP already had an account.

I can see that happening now =)

But, there is code in place to prevent the error, uless you've received it with the this update.

I will add that to the features in post #2 =)

So you know, the default setting will be in General.cs near the top, as well as an option to disable the player override. Because of my opinion mentioned on the subject above, I will leave the option out of the actual in-game interface.

I'll update to the current version and try it again.
