i try to keep myself under control, but i sometimes seem to loose grip.

anyway, aside form disccusions about the concept itself, has anyone actually checked the site?

Eh, no. :p Sorry, but Squad War and the likes is just not my cup o' tea. Nor is FS online as a whole. Just not my taste.

Might try it later if I really have nothing else to do but sit around here...

Kazan, you don't need to be diplomatic... The FSNetD client isn't even 100% complete and the these guys want to leech off your work. They should be patient and wait until we have a stable online network. Kasperl, be a good boy and stick to PXO for FS:CZ... It's something we all used to do in the past to tie us over.

Also, if we are talking about new names... I'd like to see Hard Light Network (HLN) as the Release Candidate name for FSNetD.

Ok, I am removing the original content of this post. I got mad, and I went too far.


LLL, please, I know Kazan worked hard on this code, and I didn't say anything about editing anything myself. I was asking if code changes were possible.
If our work is "leeching of the SCP guys" then the same goes for LS, Carl, and all the MODders using it. You can go tell them right now or keep silent about us. Also, everyone needs to be diplomatic if we don't want flamewars. I wasn't all that friendly in this post, not before I edited it. If anyone wants to see it, PM me.  It was an example of useless flaming, and I don't want to happen here. If you are a coder with intimate knowledge of the Netcode and Kazan's tracker systems, then please explain to me how we could output mission events to a file. Otherwise, refrain from patronising me, and either help us out or leave us alone.

Actually - we dont need code changes. All we would need is something to parse or log events into a .txt file - something which will be immensly usefull to any FREDders as well as us, especially when it comes to the annoying mission testing.

heck - even if you can get out a raw output log from the events, it should be enough for someone to parse it externally :)

Weren't persistent variables already implemented?

peristant variables, yes, but no way to output stuff to a txtfile on a server....

Well, don't they would work on client side?
I admit that this creates lots of redundancy and would make the thing hackeable with ease but it should work *goes and takes a look to the code*...

Freespace 2: Conflict Zone
yeah, but how do we parse that? from what file?

If someone could even use debug calls or something to output those actions to a txt file, somewhere, we'd be happy.

It's one of the new FRED features IIRC...
I read some discussion in the SW forum about implementing them...

i know about persisten variables, but AFAIK they are stored in either the campaign or the pilot file. neither can be easily parsed from a server side, and it would require players to actually chop up some stuff themselves....

now, aside from coding issues, is anyone interested in helping us?

We need Testers, FREDders and PHP/Webdesign.

if i can extract the log text and send it to the server i will do that for you - because then everything becomes server side
