[XP] RPG Maker XP Online System (RMX-OS)

[Blizzard]

Nope. Editing the database or maps rarely messes up a script. The exclusion would maybe be scripts that are directly connected to that.

[Ryex]

hey blizz didn't you say that you would finish the documentation with v1.0?  
oh well no rush there i'll read it when and if it gets finished

[Blizzard]

I'll do it for 1.1. I wanted to release 1.0 earlier so I skipped the docs for now.

EDIT: v1.01 is out. I fixed the bug HD mentioned. It was weird, though. Logically that bug wasn't supposed to exist at all.

[Ryex]

I found a bug! I did I did! lol it's only a small one and it's more a a glitch.
the chat bubbles will only show the last part of a message. ie I decided to test them and put in a message that was the max 200 characters but the bubble only showed the last 68 characters of the message.

also if i may make a suggestion the remember log in option should only enable a loading of the user's preference from the .ini or similar file. that way if some one is one a public computer or a computer with more than one person on it they can disable the remember log in option from the servers scene

just a suggestion.

[Blizzard]

I was just too lazy to make "Remember me" optional for the player so far.
Also, who the heck will install an RMXP game on a public computer?! -_-

I'll look into the bug with the chat bubbles. It's probably because of the text splitting in case of long messages.

EDIT: Alright, I checked on the bug and it's not a bug. It actually works as intended, I just didn't consider some cases.
The script splits the text in lines so they fit in 96 pixels width while the maximum line number in the chat bubble is 5. For former constant was hardcoded, I changed that for the next version and I changed it to 192 instead of 96. You can always change RMXOS::Data::ChatBubbleEntries and (in the next release) RMXOS::Data::ChatBubbleMaxWidth. I'll also change RMXOS::Data::ChatBubbleEntries to 8 instead of 5 by default. I might change the maximum chat entry limit to 150 or 128 or 100. I'll see. In any case there are constants in the RMXOS::Data module which are actually for advanced users since they aren't part of the default configuration. Feel free to change them, but remember to be careful when you update the script not to overwrite the edited part and add new constants from the script in that case.

the server keeps on saying offline,how do i change this?

[Hellfire Dragon]

Why did you make a new topic for that? Should've looked here before I replied in the topic >.<
Anyway,

First, this should prbably be in the RMX-OS thread. Now, you sure you actually started the server? If you are then is the server set up correctly and the database set up right?

[edwardthefma]

welli think rmxos is awsome i cant wate untill i can get it running in ruby rails XD

[Blizzard]

Eh, what SQL Management software do you guys use? People at RRR have trouble finding some. :/

[G_G]

Query Browser

thats got a few mysql tools which includes a query browser which is an sql management which I use.

[Ryex]

that's one of the things i'm going to try to add to the RMX-OS GUI. that way you dont have DL anything but MySQL, RMX-OS and the GUI to set up the server

[Blizzard]

Lol, database management software isn't really a small program. But you could just add some basic functions. That could be useful and should suffice for most people.

[Ryex]

basically the functions to to create the database run the setup script and run any update scripts

[Blizzard]

Basically running SQL queries. Probably a database content display and possibility to edit stuff would be nice, too. But for that you need to be know SQL more or less. xD

Good luck with that.

[Aqua]

I use Navicat.
It's nifty :x

[Ryex]

hm I thought of a possible addon the could be made for this script... a TOS page that your are required to click yes on or you can't register. the TOS could be pulled from a text file and it could be turned on and off.... what do you think?

[jcsnider]

I like the idea, but maybe instead of a text file in client, make it be in server and the server send it over so it can be updated anytime or, in the game's scripts so people cant edit it themselfs trying to be a smartass.

[Blizzard]

This is pointless. You just put TOS for the client download. Problem solved.

[Ryex]

hmm true. I just kniw that most MMO's I seen they have a different TOS for registering an account than for installing the game. but then most MMO's I've seen the TOS for the account registering was probably meant to cover the forum and site use as well as in game stuff. it would make more sense if the page was used to display online conduct rules.

Okay guys I figured out how to run a server without using hamachi, I feel so proud of myself. Lol.

Yea I cant believe it was so simple but took me this long to figure out.

Anyways I have a client and server up so here's a test. Its running on my actual ip without hamachi.

It does work I tested it with edwardthefma also here's my new site! Under construction of course xD
http://gameguy.webhop.org I'm going to change the name to something else but its all for server testing.
