Re: Hard typing

I tend to agree; typeless variables is a design feature of the language, used to extend usability and functionality. That's what high-level languages are supposed to do. :) If the script he was writing was so buggy that type-checking was a major problem, then I think you'd be better off finding some...

It is entirely possible, however I do not know anyone with public script-bases that are currently running that shard model.

Well, I can speak from experience in saying that POL is extremely flexible, allowing me to do things that many people thought impossible while still using a UO client. :D

Re: Question regarding smoothness of animations

So the server actually determines the framerate of the animations in the core? I'd never heard of that. I wonder why they'd ever want that option.

Re: Question regarding smoothness of animations

Playing animations is all client side, and play at a set 10 frames per second, I believe. Nothing server-side changes animation play speed, so I can think of no reason why any server would play animations any "smoother" than any other, regardless of the technology behind it. The only reaso...

Re: Musicianship

Sounds like a good alternative. If that's all peacemaking is, I suppose you could remake the EVID_PEACEMAKE that puts the script into something like: var now := ReadGameClock(); while(ReadGameClock - now < 15) var ev := Wait_For_Event(15); if(ev.type == /* damaged, engaged, whatever */) break; endif...

Re: Ecompile

1) You'll need to configure that registry key to match your system. You'll want to fix the path to be the real path of your ecompile, and you'll probably want to change the compilation flags as well. 2) Some flags that you define in your ecompile config will render compile-a-single-script impossible...

I haven't yet delved into BrainAI, so I'm mostly speaking out of ignorance: how much trouble would it be to put back in EVID_PEACEMADE and integrate it into the existing AI routine?
