Spring RTS Engine

There would be a button in battlescreen that then you clicked upon, you show a list of autohost commands (the main ones). Clicking one would make it be writen for you...

Make lifes easier :)

!help

the whole point of this is too avoid help :) Its too hard too find a spefic command in the help list, and often it needs parameters listed somewhere else, and etc. I just think that autohosts shouldnt have a DOS like interface...

I did plan to put an autohost command GUI in aflobby but never got around to it

All autohosts won't have necessarily the same commands.

They should have tough, its another thing that would make lives easier :)

Indeed they should... unless you have good reasons to change

What reasons could be those? :) Only diferences between mods, but mods dont have diferent start game variables yet, and those would still be only mod related commands, not commands related to organizing the game...

methinks manored totally misinterpreted what was said.

Wait, was he talking about... being original?

Whats the point of having being original in the prologue of the fun? :)

I'm not talking about beeing original I'm talking about improving things. For example, having an autohost that avoids !cbalance / !ring / !fixcolors floods could be good thing.

Improve everthing in the same way :)

Starting by colaserver! :) Nobody manages to fix its 5000 starting metal and energy and com ends. by the way com ends should be removed since lineage mode makes it pointless.

Actually I'm just trying to make an alternative AutoHost program for dedicated servers under Linux. I'm not modifying Springie, so all AutoHosts running Springie (colaserver...) won't be impacted at all by what I'm doing.
