Storing with serverr.

[fowlplay4]

On Zodiac I use text files, and onLevelFileUpdated() to allow people to edit the news.

When the news text file is updated, I store an updated copy in Control NPC. I.e:

PHP Code:

// Player Logs in
// Send them the News
function onPlayerLogin(pl) {
  temp.news = findnpc("Control-NPC").news;
  pl.triggerclient("-YourNewsSystem", "thegoodword", temp.news);
}

// News is updated
function onLevelFileUpdated(filename) {
  if (filename == "news/news.txt") {
    findnpc("Control-NPC").news.loadlines("levels/" @ filename);
    updateEveryone();
  }
}

// Send Everyone the News
function updateEveryone() {
  temp.news = findnpc("Control-NPC").news;
  for (temp.a: allplayers) {
    temp.a.triggerclient("-YourNewsSystem", "thegoodword", temp.news);
  }
}
