I figured that the title would get people to look, its a little exadurated. I was reading the hex dump of fix.dll so that i could get the array of strings that *watchgreen uses, when i ran across some commands i havent seen before.

*sendto
*rstat

Both commands seem to do something, sendto i havent figured out how to use. Ive place a variety of things after it and have sent it private to a player and it crashes subgame. rstat prints out information, it is send privately to a player. Anyone have any ideas what these commands do?

Slowking Man> *rstat
Timer: 10485
Counts: 0 0 0 0
Trigger: 0 0 0 0

That's what *rstat prints out, if anyone's curious.

Interesting; At the beginning, from time-to-time I used to do *sendto # # instead of warpto; and it never crashed; but it also didn't do anything. :/ It'll be interesting to know what these thing's do.

Sendto is obvious. It's like asss's /?send.

Sends a player to the specified arena.

What?!
Subgame supported sending players to other arenas!?

Damn, I'd love to see a player getting banned into an arena.

That's a null pointer error.

Shouldn't *sendto be disabled? Otherwise malicious users can crash subgames everywhere.

This may have somthing to do with trench wars version of subgame. I think this command works over there

Yes trenches subgames allows the zone to run on more than one server i believe. when you enter different arenas you are actually entering on a different server atleast thats what the server.ini suggests from thier subgame
