World Options 'datastring' (Wishlist)
World Options 'datastring' // Wishliststrike rapierJul 22, 2004, 10:58pm
Morning! (Well, tis for me),
Id like to put forward the idea of a extra world attribute, a datastring. A string variable with a minimum of AW_MAX_ATTRIBUTE_LENGTH characters that the world owner could use to add extra information for external apps such as bots to read and monitor tags such as: noseeker, gzlimit 400, botannounce e, mchat 4, meject 60 which for example 'nice' public bots could recognise as not meant to use seekerbot functions, not to go within 400 meters of gz, to announce its arrival to all eject users, and to only chat at 4 lines a second, and that users should only eject for a maximum of 60 minutes. Its just something were lacking, an ability for the actual world owners to go beyond the box of the info they give; without having to have a user query an area, such as GZ for special tags on objects. Would be a very quick, very effective method of solving quite a few problems. - Mark R |
