GK login macro? (autotag?)

[ReBorn_Spirit]

Can we add in some automatic way to put the kingdom tag on (optionally) like a basic macro to say "/kingdom tag"?? I do not know about you, but for me, I have an unstable graal client still. Saying "/kingdom tag" 50 times a day, every day I play graal gets extremely redundant. Sometimes I don't even bother trying to keep my actual tag on because it's only going to crash in the next 15 minutes again. A small limited macro on login, or even better yet, auto-kingdomtag could be put into effect rather effectively. Users could even just turn it off if they so desired with a command. Just say.. "/autotag" and it would put your tag on for you when you logged in. I think it would be nice.

I agree, I find it annoying to have to put my tag on as well due to how repetitive it is.

It probably wouldn't be too hard to script something to automatically re-add the tag after it's automatically removed.

What about if when you say /autotag a bar will come up and you can choose your nickname and set it to if you want it to come on when you log or come on if you press a key.

It would be nicer if you didn't have to do anything at all. Even if you log off, your nickname is saved in the client login screen, but you get booted off tag immediately if you try logging back on to GK. The weird part is that you can log in to other servers like zone, and it doesn't boot you off tag.

Or they could bring back /bind

I miss using it for /clear /kingdom tag and other commands.

That would be nice, and it wouldn't be hard to script either. I'd script that, but if I tryed to give it to Bjorn or Stefan, they'd hate it somehow, and throw it away.

You could just make your own Graal launcher program that when you log on to GK it automatically presses tab and types /kingdom tag

[ReBorn_Spirit]

Or we could just have stefan add in "/autotag on" "/autotag off" like I allready talked to him about on debug. Or even "/kingdom autotag" -> Auto tag on in bottom right corner of screen

The idea about bringing back /bind is a really good one. I would LOVE to have a key that /clear especially during kwars.

That's because I would assume kingdom tags are not stored in guild text files, but rather, some sort of a Database.

The Graal client only allows you to keep global/local guild tags on when you log on -- local guild tags would only be those stored in guild text files.


Anywho, regarding this macro thing, I'll script something now and post the script in this thread when I'm done. Considering I'm doing this out of pure boredom and in hopes that it would be used for you players, it won't be very fancy, but rather, it will just do the job of not having to say /kingdom tag all the time.

Ok, here you go:

wNPC:

PHP Code:

//Nickname Storage
//By: Gambet

function onActionServerSide()
{
 if (params[0] == "StoreNick")
   {
    if (params[1][1] != player.nick)
     {
      echo("[Hacker Detection]: " @ player.account @ " is attempting to bypass the trigger for the Nickname Storage!");
     } else
      {
        clientr.stored_nickname = params[1];
        this.temp = clientr.stored_nickname;
        if (this.temp[0] == "on")
         {
           //This part should be changed so that it doesn't set the player's chat, rather, shows on              
           //the bottom of the screen
           player.chat = "The stored nickname: " @ this.temp[1] @ " will automatically be set upon login! (Press shift+2 to set your nickname to it)";
         } else
          {
            //This part should be changed so that it doesn't set the player's chat, rather, shows on              
            //the bottom of the screen
            player.chat = "Successfully stored the nickname: " @ this.temp[1] @ " (Press shift+2 to set your nickname to it)";
          }
      }
   } elseif (params[0] == "SetNick")
    {
     player.nick = clientr.stored_nickname[1];
    }
}    

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerChats()
{ 
 if (player.chat == ":savenick")
  {
   Initialize();
   init_text2.text = player.nick;
  }
}

function Initialize()
{
  new GuiWindowCtrl("init_window") 
  {
    profile = GuiBlueWindowProfile;
    x = (screenwidth/2-100);
    y = (screenheight/2-100);
    width = 250;
    height = 130;
    canclose = canmaximize = canminimize = canresize = "false";
    text = "Nickname Storage";
   new GuiButtonCtrl("init_close") 
    {
      profile = GuiBlueButtonProfile;
      x = 145;
      y = 104.5;
      width = 50;
      height = 20;

    }
   new GuiButtonCtrl("init_button") 
    {

      x = 55;
      y = 104.5;
      width = 50;
      height = 20;
      text = "Store";
    }
   new GuiTextCtrl("init_text") 
    {   
      profile = GuiBlueTextProfile;
      x = 10;
      y = 20;
      height = 20;
      text = "Would you like to store the following nickname: ";
    } 
   new GuiTextCtrl("init_text2") 
    {   
      profile = GuiBlueTextProfile;
      x = 10;
      y = 40;
      height = 20;
    } 
   new GuiCheckBoxCtrl("init_checkbox") 
    {
     profile = GuiBlueCheckBoxProfile;
     x = 10;
     y = 71.5;
     width = 100;
     height = 20;
     text = "Auto-set on Login?";
    }
  }
}

function init_close.onAction()
{
 init_window.destroy();
}

function init_button.onAction()
{
 if (init_checkbox.checked)
  {
    this.tosave = {"on",player.nick};
  } else
   {
     this.tosave = {"off",player.nick};
   }
  triggerserver("gui",name,"StoreNick",this.tosave);
} 

function onKeyPressed(code,key)
{
 if (code == 306)
  {
   if (clientr.stored_nickname != "")
    {
     triggerserver("gui",name,"SetNick");
    }
  }
} 


Control-NPC:

PHP Code:

function onActionPlayerOnline()
{
  if (clientr.stored_nickname[0] == "on")
   {
     player.nick = clientr.stored_nickname[1];
   }
} 


Commands:

-Say :savenick to initialize the gui.

-Press shift+2 to automatically set your nickname to the stored nickname.


NOTE: Storing your nickname will allow you to toggle it using shift+2. As an add-on, while storing your nickname, you can choose to have it automatically set upon logging in or not.


Now, I know that you can easily save a nickname for a Kingdom, leave the Kingdom, join another Kingdom, and toggle between the two Kingdom tags even though you arn't in both kingdoms via this system the way it currently is. This can easily be fixed, but I don't know how the Kingdom systems works, thus, I couldn't add that part on to this system, but it should be an easy addition for Stefan or any of the Kingdom staff.

You should present this code to GK staff first and see what they think of the idea.

Meh, feel free to direct any of the staff to my post with the code if you'd like.


I just figured I'd do a few people a favor and script it myself -- the rest is out of my hands.

[Cubical]

Hmm, is it too hard to say /kingdom tag?
