New RC:

[DustyPorViva]

What about when the image is greater then the line height?

right now it sort of wraps the text to the right (as you saw on the 'hmm' text), I need to test on images larger than the chat can handle though, if it's 'buggy' I can ask stefan to edit it or just insert blank lines for when the image is too big so you can scroll down still

How much of that needs script. and how much is built into the new engine?

I'm rather curious about how that would work...

I suppose I'll have to wait for a release and get another server job to find out.

(Didn't wanna read 14 pages of stuff so I dunno if these ideas came up yet or not)

When you go into the graphic folders, instead of having to download the graphic, have a preview box, so you don't have to go through it downloading and taking a bit to open.

When you double click a gani, make it auto load into the gani maker

I have many other ideas, but I gotta go now, homework, bye ^_^//

[DustyPorViva]

It will open gani's in graalshop if you make it.

rightclick>openwith>browse>graalshop

Images and hyperlinks will come in very handy, I like it.

in response to showing large images:
stefan has coded it so it wont show the text under the image, if the image is large, the next text line will appear under the image

and rogue -> how much of what needs script? the current RC chat here is just using a clientside equivilent to sendtorc to send it to RC chat, he also made it divide players into 2 types, client-rcs and clients, client-rcs are clients with local rights, these kind of players get an event whenever something is spoken in rc chat, and when it recieves that event it just adds the text to the multi line text gui

How about things like the scroll bar and such?

This brings out possibilities like blocking it so some may only read the RC chat, and not respond. Also I like the image idea.

What about it? It's just...a scrollbar o_O

[DustyPorViva]

Well, we all know Graal doesn't support that right now, unless you script it.

I was wondering if it was something new Graal has in v3, where you can just add scrollbars and such, or does it still have to be scripted manually?

none of the backround was created using the old manual way, it uses special functions / commands to create a gui, the backround on the RC consists of 18 GUIs I believe, right now I dont feel like counting but this is my estimate:

the main window
bitmap backround
13 buttons
scroll control
multi text field
chat edit

so practically 90% of the script so far are things completely new

Graalv3 won't run on computers with low RAM, I don't have that problem anymore, but what about the other 800 players? Not all of them have top-of-the-line computers. Mabey you should just keep it sorta simpler.

[SaijinGohan]

Yeah how much will I really need. This pc has 256 right now, 512 is coming soon. But my old comp in my room which I use to make levels only has 64. This could be a problem. :/

Keep what simpler? A GUI isn't going to break any computer less than a decade old.

Ok, I think I get what's going on here.


Once I wrote my own multi-line text area with a scrollbar.. I was just curious.
