I've asked him if i could compiled and release a windows copy of it, so i'll wait for a reply, though it may be a bit. Otherwise, have fun with it if you have a linux machine.

Yah, it works great, but very differently.

If you have recommendations, post 'em. If you have problems, post 'em. Either i can maybe attempt a fix, or forward it over to Grel.

A list of all of the modules with a discription.
Make Esc+C work (its every sysop's friend)
Make the command structure modular (if its not already) so that us old fashoned people can use our * commands.

Im sure I will think of more as I fiddle with it.

That should be in the help document.

Notice how the settings work? Its a bit hard to do that when the settings can be in 50 different files, though Grel did make a quick patch to support quick editing, though i don't know if its in his current release.

Already done. Also, did you try using a * command yet? The new server ignores the difference between ? or *'s. ?prize and *prize are the same thing. He just has them all labeled as being ? commands because it the standard he likes to go by. Thats why *arena was relabeled as ?a (since ?arena is already used).

In the help doc? Ok I will look better.

Yes, I did notice, and I see that it ends up as one file after all of the #includes.

Actually, now that you mention it, yah, I noticed the ? and * thing. Don't know why I posted it. Must be getting late. *goes off to bed*

NOTE: if this post makes 0 sence to me when I read it tomorrow, I will edit it after I have had more sleep.

Heh, go to Search and look at the hidden forums and you will see that they already exist.

They are the 'coding' forums, for the open-sourceness of the project to assist others in making things with it. I planned on ASSS replacing the old server when it came out, but grel wanted to release a preview of the server. I'm not sure if it is worth it to create a new forum for it, but i will. I'll see how it goes.

ASSS Questions

The forums under the coding section will remain empty until the project goes open source, since you can't ask questions about how parts of the code works until you see it.

?dropturret seems kewl

It is going to be improved in the future, right?
Mmm... damn, this server could be fun

A command to move balls too would be nice
A command to give/take points

what module is ?dropturret in? I couldn't figure it out...

Dropturret is a command in autoturret (part of funky) that allows you to drop fake players where your currently at. It is currently setup to show how to create a fake player can be created, shoot, and disappear.
