I was wonder what was holding back sending to a set or list of players using python. I notice in chat.h its noted that there isn't support for it yet, what would it take to get this feature working?

This was added 2 years ago. The comment in chat.h is old and should probably be removed.

In python you need to use a asss.PlayerListType object.
It goes like this:

Code: Show/Hide import asss chat = asss.get_interface(I_CHAT) list = asss.PlayerListType() list.append(p) list.append(another_p) chat.SendSetMessage(list, "bla")

This object can be used anywhere where you would normally pass a LinkedList containing Player's (look for pyint: playerlist)

Oh interesting!

Is there a way to not have to append each player, say I wanted to send to the entire arena? Or would I have to do list.append(p) for each player that enters. and list.remove(p) for when they leave?

[JoWie]

There is SendArenaMessage and SendArenaSoundMessage:

Code: Show/Hide chat.SendArenaMessage (arena, "bla bla") chat.SendArenaSoundMessage(arena, asss.SOUND_GIRL, "bla bla")

If you want to send a custom message you will have to loop over every player

Code: Show/Hide list = asss.PlayerListType() def getMyPlayers(p):    if (p.arena == arena):       list.append(p) asss.for_each_player(getMyPlayers) chat.SendAnyMessage(list, asss.MSG_SYSOPWARNING, 0, None, "bla bla")
