Hmmm, the WCS Rooms i go into do this when i'm admin

;/

That is the new bot mode for the new betas. WCS now sends the real color codes when you're in bot mode. So no need to worry. It isn't a glitch.

What? I'm not talking about the colour codes.. i'm talkin about the fucked format ...

KM · « **Reply #3 on:** May 18, 2007, 02:27:11 am »

erm...

which WCS version? what's the text format set to? what is your exact username? and i'm assuming that's robomx - does it look normal in winmx?

although it's probably best if i can see this one for myself... lol

Snick512 · « **Reply #4 on:** May 18, 2007, 02:41:55 am »

I'm using newest robomx, and yea it looks the same on winmx as it does on robo.

and i think its the newest version of wcs...

[18:37:48] Info: Room is powered by WCS 1.8b12-Win32

n um it doesnt say which format i'm on in 1 room, in the other its format 6

if u want the roomname i'll pm it to you

KM · « **Reply #6 on:** May 18, 2007, 02:46:48 am »

i meant the actual format, not which setting it is... lol (and it's displayed in /stats <username> now)

btw i'm in the winmxworld room atm and will be for a short while...

just for anyone wondering, he came in and I found the problem quite quickly, it's down to #c10# and the way WCS handles the newline in b12/13, it will be fixed in the next version but it's only a minor bug as there are plenty more grey colours to chose from so no reason someone has to use #c10#

Bearded Blunder · « **Reply #8 on:** May 18, 2007, 10:27:25 am »

#c10# is quite pretty on other servers.. lots of ppl use it it comes out the same as #c51#

KM · « **Reply #9 on:** May 18, 2007, 11:28:09 am »

it's grey on WCS, the same as #c9#

but of course if you do want #c10# for that purpose..

Replace=#c10#=#c9#

although if you do have users doing that with their names i'd suggest Replace=#c10#=#c51# and while you're at it might as well do the others as well

lol nice nobody blamed my room, it was my room after all lol
I tought it was something id done and tried to fix. but got too tired and went to bed,never thought for a sec it was a bug. Ill have to blame KM more often instead of trusting your usuall good work lol

KM · « **Reply #11 on:** May 18, 2007, 11:54:10 am »

blame ouka for users using that code

it's just due to a few changes with how it handles multiple lines now (done at the same time i added #\n#), #c10 comes out as colour code followed by byte 10, byte 10 would be a line break - which just happens to be what I picked to use for splitting up lines in multi-line text, heh

Bearded Blunder · « **Reply #12 on:** May 18, 2007, 02:48:55 pm »

lol, i hadn't seen the issue , but already had all the ouka codes in replace to wcs ones (as indeed my ouka room has all the wcs ones set to return the expected colour for wcs users) in a perfect world wcs would support both sets of numbers (ok it supports them... just all as grey).. but it would be nice if both sets functioned, it's no problem using replace in room for text.. but it does rather spoil the effect for names when an ouka user wanders in a wcs room or vice-versa

KM · « **Reply #13 on:** May 18, 2007, 07:06:53 pm »

actually I knew fxserver support both types of color code, and had assumed ouka did as well... so didn't see any point, heh

Bearded Blunder · « **Reply #14 on:** May 18, 2007, 09:06:34 pm »

well Ouka Chat Server, Ver.5.40a certainly doesn't & I havn't seen an anouncement of support for wcs codes being added, or i would have upgraded..... i know he added #c?# in addition to #cx# but that is the extent of compatibility i know of for certain......

since WCS's "bot friendly" output seems to only be readable by *some* bots *sometimes* it looks like i may be sticking with ouka & find out if the current one suports WCS codes in use.. at least Ouka's server messages CAN be read by metis..

a shame, because at least on paper WCS *looks* the way better option

Micromecca · « **Reply #15 on:** May 18, 2007, 10:07:37 pm »

I's love to see all colours added to WCS especilly c37

KM · « **Reply #16 on:** May 19, 2007, 03:17:49 am »

all outputs are basically sent as normal messages from the server, it should be extremely easy for bots to pick up every single output from it (obviously /notice it won't matter, due to the nature of the command)... which outputs are you having a problem with? there are a few people who do quite a bit of stuff with their bots who have been playing about with b12/b13 and none of them have mentioned any outputs not being easy to read so far... in fact the exact opposite response from them :-S

Stevi · « **Reply #17 on:** May 19, 2007, 06:09:06 am »

Well I have another one for you KM.

Every time i reload the room without rebooting it the MOTD shows up 2 times when using MOTDLine=. This happened to me 2 times. Every time I hit the reload button it puts a new MOTD up. I dont know what is going on here. I hope it is a glitch in wcs and not me. lol

[Edit by Omega] It seems as though if you dont have MOTD= aswell this problem occurs. If that is the way it is supposed to be I am sorry for wasting your time[/Edit]

* Bearded Blunder has the bug it turns out

don't waste a lot of time trying to reproduce this.. however if you do want to, the methd is.. stay awake a long time, so you don't realise you're editing the xml files in the backup copy of metis you made to recover in case of total screwups.. while running the main copy.. it also helps to have many instances of notepad open..

but i do second the idea it would be nice to see the ouka codes actually added.. although i see no particular reason to add them to the /colour command (being duplicates) merely to have them work

nylly444 · « **Reply #19 on:** May 19, 2007, 09:05:29 am »

@ Omega:

I had the same happen and after asking KM he said the MOTDLine is supposed to be added to the MOTD.
It works fine if you do that, it just needs to be documented properly

* nylly444 blames KM
