Small update to RC
 

I think all "Weapon/GUI-script" Updates should be localized, much like the /help function. On servers like Testbed it can become very difficult to see your scripts output amongst all the other peoples. I imagine it can't be too hard.

This would be nice.. but last i heard Stefan has said he wouldn't be updating the external tools and that everything was going in-game/client-based. :(

I think someone should make a third-party RC, Gani, and Level Editor.

it shouldn't be forced though. an option for it would be better this way a manager or a high admin can see when their NATs are changing scripts. if it was forced locally, someone could get away with uploading a malicious weapon NPC and it wouldn't even display to NC.

Scripted RC has a major flaw with testbed -- panels are not adjustable. You can't even read most of the names of the weapons, making it pretty useless.

There's Gonstruct for Level Editors, but any attempt to make a third-party RC would probably result in a ban or something.

As long as the in-game tools don't feel like in-game tools then things might just be fine but until then I hope we don't get stuck with the crappy one we have now if new stuff ever comes out.

External tools ftw.

I will update it to use an adjustable frame control when I get the time.

I'm pretty sure someone was working on a third-party RC a while back, and was using it.

The only time I've ever heard about this somebody got themselves into trouble. *shrugs*

I remember some thread on these forums about someone who was making a multi-tool for Graal, and it included a third-party RemoteControl that he made. Maybe... 3 years ago?

Stefan would consider a third-party RC as a major security risk, and I remember someone trying to make one before and I think Stefan stopped them.

I'm pretty sure one could talk with Stefan about that. Show him the source so he can confirm it's clean and allow it to be used.

For some reason I think it might have been Mystical Dragon? I remember someone making an external RC for cellphones/PDAs and was banned for doing so.

Oh ya, that was it. I don't know if he was actually banned for it though.
