Scarface Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 How about an error reporter, lets say the client crashes, an error message shall come up asking if you will like to send the error or not, like a windows 'Dont send' OR 'Send', which would probably send the dumps or somethin. And also the user should have an option to write a short message about how this error occured.
robhol Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Wow, your first idea I didn't scoff at! Would certainly be useful, if someone's willing to code it, and no less importantly, watch what's being sent in. Do NOT PM ME for help unless invited. - New MTA Script Editor Scripting help "etiquette": understandable language, relevant code (ALL code if unsure), [Lua] tags, error messages with line numbers. Super simple stuff.
darkdreamingdan Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Such an error reporter was actually built into Race and MTA0.5. It could easily be reintroduced, just we have an Open Bugtracker now so people can report bugs there. The problem with such error reporters is that for it to be useful, we need people to give steps to reproduce. VCP FOREVER!

The problem with such error reporters is that for it to be useful, we need people to give steps to reproduce. Well, add a few lines in which you can fill the steps to reproduce? Just a small textfield. Should be enough. Good idea though. Projects: Slothbot | Maximap
