I would prefer they be kept, but have links pointing to them struck out with the <del> tag. I'll comment more in the morning when I'm awake! Thanks for your work.

Where is the talk page for the functions page? Missing. :-) Talk page links have to be manually added, and I obviously missed that one. Some of the functions that end up in the forum thread also end up in CommonFunctions.xml, just namespaced and sometimes with a different name. Yes, I noticed that....

I've added some of the helper functions from the forum thread and elsewhere to the wiki. (See bottom part of this page ). You can post here if there is anything in particular you'd like to see included there. I'd also like to encourage people to sign up for the wiki so they can use the talk pages, a...

I like that there are very few bots and spammers in this forum. If a real person can't take the time to send an email after they sign up to say "Hi, I just signed up and I'm a real person, can you accept my registration?" or wait a few days then too bad. Which is all very well except 'a few days' m...

If you've got something like ... <ItemTable UNID="&trConsumables10;"> <RandomItem criteria= "fmut +Consumable; -Illegal;" level= "10" levelCurve= "2" /> </ItemTable> Is it possible to tell what the criteria, level and level curve are for the table with UNID &trConsumables10; using tscript? e.g. some...

nearly spam-free forums thanks to those restrictive rules. That's one area where there is room for improvement. There doesn't seem to be any basis for telling whether someone is a) human or b) sincere in his interest in transcendence. All you know is their username (and possibly email). It would be...

By the way... I am thinking of making a rewrite of this mod. It was written quite a time ago, and there are several things that can be done to simplify it, and make it more usable (hackable)... Are there some changes you have made that you would like included in it? Well I'm not sure my code is wor...

The tension of not wanting to miss vital messages makes me pay better attention to the game so I don't get killed by stupidity to often.

Oh! I just noticed that you use (plyMessage ..), not (dbgLog ..). I think you will find some information in the log already, but in any case it is much simpler to just keep an eye on the log, rather than the player messages. Yeah, I know it's not efficient - but I like actually _playing_ while debu...

Ah! I really should have thought of that. Thanks!

Nevermind - I think I've figured out the problem GalacticTraders.xml only uses the gt_GetStationRandomItemRules function not the gt_GetStationStaticItemRules or gt_GetStationLookupItemRules functions (although they are defined). So basically static items (e.g. fuel station) and lookup items (e.g. mi...

I've been experimenting with the very interesting mod by alterecco, Galactic Traders . I've played around with the code a bit and generally made some progress in adjusting it to my personal preferences, but now I'm a little stuck. It appears that 'sell only' stations are not getting any new stock wh...

I took advantage of the contact link in Xelerus and asked if he could get in touch with an admin here. Thanks again, bmbl.

I hope that makes sense :) Yeah, thanks. ^ ^; Er, so apart from choosing a really bad example _and_ making a mistake in the code - what about my original question? :oops: The block function description says ...

OK, I'm just confirming things here really, but say you had code like ...
