Post New Scripted RC

The scripted version of RC has been updated to be more similar to the external RC. It can be accessed by pressing F6 or by clicking to Start->RemoteControl in the client.

Changes:
  • More minimalistic gui interfaces for a clean feel.
  • Commands such as /openrights and /opencomments use the user's account if nothing is specified
  • Outdated and less used features and buttons have been removed.
  • A new text editor is used for all text in the new RC, which includes word wrap options and find/replace.
  • Scripts of all types are now listed similar to the external RC.

New options added:
  • Console Font Size - Font size of the rc chat console
  • Console Buffer Lines - Cutoff for lines of rc chat; use 0 for no limit
  • Log scriptfiles/<server>/rcchat.txt - Log all RC chat to the rcchat.txt file specific to the server folder
  • Disconnect on close - Disconnect from RC when closing the window

Improvements:
We plan to improve the new version of RC further by adding working irc tabs and quick typing to search script lists, among other improvements. We are also planning to include an updated development tools, like the level editor and the gani editor, to be accessed directly from RC.

We plan also to make it compatible with iOS and Android client.

Old RC:
The old RC can't be updated and is incompatible with new server version, we will have to disable it in the forthcoming days.

Feel free to tell us what features you want to be added before we disable old RC.

Scripting:
The text editor tool used by the new RC is available by script for convenience.
For normal text editing:

Update: Removed for now because of incompatibilities
