PODBOT2.6MM after PMB...work still pending

[sPlOrYgOn]

soulfather i just used the computer against my sister's wishes and tested it
it is add <skill> <team> <model> <name>
the detailed names work...
except they do not work when a name a supplied
so I will go through the code and see if i can fix this.
Note: next time I release I'll let them still push buttons and also have the button flag manually addable and deletable.

PM directed us not to do anything with the wp editor
so leave the manual flag placing out of your repetior because its already in his code.
you may tho, allow them to press buttons again until we DIRECTLY fix how they do it

and help out MR Kwo with that addbot bug

thanks dude for your help ......just send PMB your changes when you are finished.....when hes on later we will fix some stuff.......

go to the chat room......from now on i will just be in that chat room if i am online at all.....(IRC chat link on the top of the page, or use IRC)

PS: i am still seeing WAYS to get around his problem......he could still play if he used them

[sPlOrYgOn]

i want to go on irc but it says mIRC only :'(
linux doesn't have mIRC

and i won't do anything with the waypoint editor then

[edit]
i get the feeling that it was made this way for a reason..
so people can supply a name and have it exactly that name.

[SoUlFaThEr]

yes and also that we are not getting doubled and tripled .....meaning

Bill
[1]Bill
[2]Bill

which is just fabulous for those running stats

btw.....the irc chat icon on the site here loads a java plugin so you can chat there without having IRC...so you should be able to manage it

[Onno Kreuzinger]

the IRC works with other clients than mirc, also in inux

use mozillas chatzilla if in doubt

[sPlOrYgOn]

Well I only tried using Chat-X and it didn't allow me to connect
I guess i'll install mozilla then
and I guess i'll try to fix the problem with same name for multiple bots but i don't think i will be able to if pmb tried this a few times and it's still happening..
[edit]
i will also make the detailednames work for the name supplied when using addbot command.

[edit2]
HAHA
i see why it doesn't work like PMB made it to
it's because when detailed names are on it will add stuff to the name and what he did was check the names of all the bots connected and test it against the names in botnames.txt which will always be different when detailednames is on
on a side note I might not know how to fix this problem without adding a new variable into the bot structure or making a new array to hold the names that are used.

if i dont put a skill in the adbot commandline......the detailnames work......

[sPlOrYgOn]

well it's actually If you don't supply a name the detailnames work i think i posted this in one of the posts before.

[SoUlFaThEr]

they worked for me.....my last post on page 3.....have a look

EDIT
whooops

i did this with detailed names on:

addbot 100 1 2 Bill

and got a bot named 2 with no details

then:

addbot 2 4 Bill

i get a no detailed bot named Bill

then:

addbot Bill

and it pulls a detailed name from the botnames list(not BILL) !!

lol???

[sPlOrYgOn]

it worked for you because u didn't supply a name...
"addbot <skill> <team> <model> <name>"
[edit]
okay this is hard i can't figure out how to do this..
if i use StripClanTags it'll even strip out parts of the person's name if it has { } or ( ) or [ ]
as you can see i am a very inexperienced coder
I've gotten too used to PHP
[/edit]
[edit2]
it's only supposed to work in the right order and inorder to supply a name you MUST supply everything else...
and that leaves me to question why that 2nd one worked...
[/edit2]
[edit3]
also when i tried it i supplied it with addbot <skill> <team> <model> <name> and it worked perfectly fine...
