This is probably true.

I suppose protest would be the wrong word, maybe "development strike".

It sounds plausible. I'm tired of asking for little additions to the scripting engine that would be simple to implement and would help Valikorlia but don't get anything in return because Stefan is busy working on V6 and ignoring V5.

Serverside updates are nice and all and I appreciate those but I don't like the client being ignored. Perhaps have the clientside script engine in a seperate DLL file that could be updated easier without distributing a new client.

I agree, could use MD5 checksums to make sure the file isn't tampered with.

Stefan is back from vacation, I've even seen him posting around the forums. There is no excuse to not add this, especially since it wouldn't require a client upgrade.

It requires work which is a big no-no for the team.

Not really. Copy and paste the code I already posted. Under 60 seconds if you already have RC open.

Still waiting. If Stefan has time to update the NPC-Server, then this should be easy.

There is an obvious difference between updating the NPC-Server and updating the client.

This wouldn't require a client update; Stefan has already said it would only need a script added to the login server.

So where is it?

Also, I'm still waiting on the ability to set the exact cursor position in a GuiMLTextEditCtrl so I can perfect my chat system. But this is obviously requiring a client update.

Apparently all it took was catching Stefan on Kingdoms and asking him to add this.

PHP Code:

("-Serverlist").setChat(chat); 


works now
