Are there any programmers?

[majkp]

Character renaming ("/renameme") could be restricted to use once a day per account, for example and it would cost 5mils and player would be temporarily banned for 1 hour (so he can't re-engage for example). In that case I seriously doubt it could be abused. And all commands needed for that are already there (removecash,kick,tempban,rename), they just need to be executed together in a new command that would be allowed to everyone for use.

But back to topic, any skilled programmers out there? If you are not sure, just download the latest flhook plugin version and look at the documentation, how to create plugins etc. It's very well described.

I'm taking A+ a few months from now (If everything goes well in this program) dunno of that falls in check with being able to program these type of things. If so maybe I could lend a hand in about 4 or 5 months....

I've got a variety of programming experience in the following:

C / C++ - 5 years
Java - 3 years
SQL - 3 years
Assembly - 1 year
HTML/ASP/PHP/XML/CSS - 6 years


I imagine you don't really need any web work, but I've got the background, just in case.

I've been looking for a pet project to work on lately, and this is absolutely up my alley.

If you want a resume or anything, let me know.

So, when can I start!? :D

I've noticed Shattered Worlds uses a /bank command...your own personal bank which works for characters on a certain key. They also have the /sendcash and bounty thing. They are using FLAC, is that different? Even if it is, I would venture to guess the scripts are similar.

Yeah, i`ve seen it on Colonial Wars. Every one of your characters has acces to the account, its really handy. /sendcash is also neat, but the /bank allows You to skip transfer action.

To Dab, maga and Jure: So far it seems it's only you interested in developing some new functions. Maybe you could create some team (= chat in skype or whatever) add me and Korrd and start working on whatever you choose. PM me for the skype contacts. I know Korrd planned to work on the renameme command, but he seems to have little to no time lately so I doubt he's working on it now.

What we need to restrain from is two people working on the same thing while not speaking to each other. I guess you all downloaded and had a look at the flhook plugin version. If there are any questions I'll direct you to the right forum on starport, I am sure w0dk4 will help you by answering any questions you might have. I am not a programmer myself, so I can just provide you some ideas and testing.

I've had a look at the plugin SDK and have managed to write a simple plugin that mostly works. I think that I probably can get a rename plugin work within a day or so...depending on how much free time I can find.

I am a commercial programmer, but have almost no experience with windows software and visual C++ (yesterday was the first time ever I installed visual C++) or FLserver.

I'll pm the guys above and see where to go from here.

Great, add me to the CC: of the PM as well. Also if you have any question regarding flserver and flhook from the server operator point of view and/or if you need to test your plugin, I think I might help...;)

Yeah, I also suggest that a bank feature be implemented.

FLU has a good one, to deposit you must have at least an hour of play time on that character. That way we don't get newbies creating 10 accounts and piling up credits.

There was also a small fee. 5% or so.

I have managed to impliment as follows:

/rename =. Renames instantly. Also allows you to invite from distance. Charges 5,000,000
/sendcash
/sendcash$ Does what it says on the tin. Also charges 1.5% of the amount sent.
/bountyhunt
/bountyhunt$
/help
/Autobuy Fixed so that it now buys 70 of each item

The only thing i cant get to happen is for /autobuy to tempban after its done the rename. And i dont have enough knowledge to get the command to call the tempban plugin. If anyone knows a way feal free to let me know.

One thing i will add. I never made them as plugins. I added them to FLHook 1.5.8_Plugin version.
