Some good ideas...

[Falcor]

I couple things i thought of when ToT was down(Hacked) and I couldn't work on my npcs....

Player list - Should not be its own sperate window instead. It shouldbe a part of the Graal Window itself. And it can do autohide when your mouse isnt on the edge of the screen where the playerlist is...

Chat rooms!!! - I think graal should have its own little chat room where people can chat publically w/o having to pm people. (Wisper can be PM :} )

Server staff - I think the server should pick what guild tags should go into the staff portion of the player list.

AutoFormat - In the Graal Leveleditor whjen you create NPCs i think there should be an "Format SCRIPT" button. Not only will it make your script EZer to read but you will be able to detect some errors faster that are not detected by the TEST option.

NPC Server Editor - Since not maney servers have an NPC server (curently only NM and ToT) I dont think this would be ... economical.... But there should be a program that lets you code w/ NPC server commands and it works so you can test NPC server NPCs offline

Follow player eventually has to be made for online use. Heck.. Graal is totally ONLINE MULTIPLAYER now!

A few new scripts i though up.

checkflag(index,flag) - Check to see if a player with a cetain index has a flag set. (Could be anything like a plain old flag or strequals(#a,someone) or x = 30)

screenshot x,y,width,hieght,savename; Takes a screen shot and saves it as the name given. that would have a lot of posibilites.

playerkillscompu - Detects if player kills a baddy. Usefull for a lot of things, cold also have playerkillsplayer, ect ect.

getlist txtfile,stringname; - Gets the content of a txt file and puts it in a string. could be VERY usful...

storelist value,txtfile; - stores letters or numbers in a txt file.
Erm.. Ill think of more l8er. I got TONS of ideas stuck im my head. They jsut havnet surfaced yet.

Those are some good ideas.

Nice on Asu- I mean...

[Psyker]

I want the server staff idea.

[Falcor]

I guess no one likes these ideas enought re reply to them.

[LilbrojX]

playerkillscompu would be very helpful

Could be implemented like IRC List I guess, I dunno.

Dunno how well that would work

Server staff - I think the server should pick what guild tags should go into the staff portion of the player list.

Would love to see that if/when possible. Some people believe "NAT" is a real staff tag, and there's "* Admin" tags of course...

In the UNIX world, we call that "tidy".

NPC Server Editor - Since not maney servers have an NPC server (curently only NM and ToT) I dont think this would be ... economical.... But there should be a program that lets you code w/ NPC server commands and it works so you can test NPC server NPCs offline

So basically, a simulated NPC server, or a NPC Server syntax checker? Not a bad idea either.

My idea: shootarrow2 dir,img[,speed,dmg];
I think you get the idea, but I don't know how "img" would be truely implemented... would it be a single image with 4 sprites in it? Would it simply be the beginning part of a file name and have things like imgu.gif, imgd.gif, etc etc

message2 text;

Like having the NPC chat like a regular player (It dissapears after 3 seconds rather than stay forever ;D

[Psyker]

if (playerenters) {
message blahblahblah;
sleep 1.5;
message;
}

how hard is that? but I'd also like the message2

Blah:

NPC Code:

---

if (playertouchsme) {

  message blahblahblah;

  timeout = 3;

  timereverywhere;

}

if (timeout) {

  message ;

}

---

Then the NPC can do multiple actions while saying blahblahblah

Why not have a full simulated server that will let you test level to see if they would work online cuz offline mode it wored differntly then online mode

It'd be nice if there was a server where every player could upload levels instantly... but it'd go to hell, I think.

You can do that with the last publicly released version of gserver although you won't have all the comments... Oh and starting your own gserver isn't actually allowed I think.

The screenshot thing is bad. Someone could make an NPC that fills your computer up with pictures super fast or something.
