Script-Server

[Guest]

Why should the server be DOS based? , why not a server with a real GUI and its own scripting engine? i want to create my own scripts to my MTA server.

I got a server pc running more than 20 servers . Dos uses less ram . so it wont make the servers slow .

No DOS. Use Linux

Linux sux!!!!! Windows is better!!!!

But im dont want dos server , i want a clear WIN server with GUI , instead of setting all settings in a CFG too , why not set them directly on screen? And a script engine based on visual basic or anything. With functions like:

Private sub PlayerDied(killer , player)

' here is a function when a player dies

end sub

Private Sub PlayerSpawn(player , point)

' here is a function when a player is spawn

end sub

Private Sub PlayerConnected(player, IP )

' here is a function when a player is connected

end sub

Private Sub PlayerDisconnected(player, IP)

' here is a function when a player is disconnected

end sub

Private Sub PlayerPing(player , ping, IP)

' here is a function when a player is Pinged by the server

end sub

Private Sub PlayerEnterWehicle(Player , WN, Wehicle)

' here is a function when a player is entering a wehicle

'Wehicle can be:

' 1 = Car

' 2 = Bike

' 3 = boat

' 4 = copter

end sub

Private Sub PlayerLeaveWehicle(Player , WN, Wehicle)

' here is a function when a player is entering a wehicle

'Wehicle can be:

' 1 = Car

' 2 = Bike

' 3 = boat

' 4 = copter

end sub

Private Sub AdminEnter(User, Password, IP)

'When a admin enter

end sub

Private Sub AdminDisconnect(User, Password, IP)

'When a admin disconnect

end sub

People, People...

This is 0.3 or somthing. Don't expect to much, and don't assume the MTA team are stupid. They know that everything in mta can be improved, suggestions that are required are the ones that are actually original.

Of course people like GUIs, thats why we have them, to make programs easier to use, but with server apps like MTA and many other games, the dedicated server is commonly a console (dos style) app, saves memory and GUI is rarely required for most users.

Anyway, don't worry about the problems, just enjoy it how it is and look forward to the wonders that await you in the future of mta

God that sounded stupid

the lower the resources mta servers take up, the better. (easier to sneak onto the systems at work)

AND: VB is much slower than C++ and normally not compileable on linux.

He didn't mean write it in VB - he meant have it incorporate a scripting language that's easy to use (i.e. similar to VB).

mIRC scripting is easy to learn, vb isn't

[orappa]

I'd say that VB is easier to learn because it is high level. mIRC is structured more like C++. For example, the If...Then...End If makes a lot more sense in terms of grammar to the braces ({ }) used by C++ and mIRC (as far as I'm aware).
