Post subject: 8ball - build 2

Was going through my old plugin files, and found this and updated it...

Added Support for sayings to be read from an INI file.

Commands added in build 2:
!reloadsayings - reloads the INI file.

Have fun.

Where's the source code?

got command 8ball->

random numner n = (0-numersponses-1)

sendPrivate(p,resonses[n]);

there's your source

I think that source will always negatively index the array, dude.

lol 0 - numberofresponces -1
yah that will be real nice negative result

better would probably be
int range=numberofresponces+1;
responces[int(range * rand()/(RAND_MAX + 1.0));];

If anyone really needs the src, they can email or PM me; but...

int temp = rand()%max_resp;

and it's seeded on the first !8ball request...

I'd recommend seeding ahead of time and throwing away one rand(), because I've noticed mysterious duplicates on the first rand() called from a similar seed.

if there are 0 responces, rand()%0 will crash the program
yah and seed rand() in spawn.h
srand(static_cast<unsigned>(time(0)));

max_resp is hard-coded to 9 responces. If a responce is blank in the INI it uses the programs' default.

and is seeded w/ the current time... when the first !8ball is done.

it was meant as a "to" rather than a minus... like if i say I have 5-10 minutes to get to the store I don't mean I have negative 5 minutes.

so 0 to numberofresponces-1

static_cast is totally unnecessary. A time_t is a perfectly good argument for srand()
