Re: Message.tbl / mod.tbl changes
Is the wiki updated with this information? :nervous:

It hasn't been in a release build yet... so no.

We have 3.6.15 tags for that. Also game_settings.tbl is on the Wiki.

Ok, ok. I'll stick it on there. You know, some of you guys could help.  :P

Edit: hey, weve got some descripancy between table files. # tags in game_settings.tbl is all-caps while Messages.tbl has the only first letter capitalized...

.tbl/.tbm files are not case sensitive, but they are case preserving so feel free to make it consistent on the wiki.

Re: Message.tbl / mod.tbl changes
So I set up our messages.tbl in BtA to use this...

Code: [Select]
#Message Frequencies

$Name: Check 6
+Maximum Count: 15
+Minimum Delay: 45

$Name: Praise
+Maximum Count: 15
+Minimum Delay: 60

$Name: Praise Self
+Occurrence Chance: 7
+Maximum Count: 15
+Minimum Delay: 75

$Name: Help
+Maximum Count: 15
+Minimum Delay: 85

I'm getting some odd behavior. Take 'Check 6' for example. It waits the specified delay, but when it happens, the same message is played upwards of 8 times right in a row. Using build 8980.

EDIT: See the timestamps on the attached image. (Must have happened at the end of the 46th second because they all popped up at the same time.)

Re: Message.tbl / mod.tbl changes
Ummm. I gave a bad example. It was the one I was using for testing so I wanted a lot of messages.

Delays are in milliseconds. :D

If mod makers had to wait for all the SCP features before making mods, no mod would ever have happened, and no mod would happen for the next few decades to come...

If mod makers had to wait for all the SCP features to be documented on the Wiki before making mods, no mod would ever have happened, and no mod would happen for the next few decades to come...

Re: Message.tbl / mod.tbl changes
Well, I was updating the wiki with the new info and I said I was. (That's compared to documentation that doesn't magically appear for some reason)

I don't remember where I found out what units the delay was in, that might've been over IRC...
