Ah I didn't think of the readme lol thanks [Num].
Why is it so quiet today?

[Edit] I also can't find the readme you mean, I have the sysvars word document but that doesnt have velscalar or bodgain/bodlos in it.

[Edit edit] Whoa thanks Shen! I completely missed your post the first time; thanks a ton!  :lol:  :lol:

Num, have you considered tidying up the sysvars? I know your concerened about backwards compatibility but most reeeeally old bots dont work in the latest versions anyway, and it seems like the next version is going to be a big upgrade anyway so it might be worth it doing it now.

Besides theres loads of fairly useless or duplicated sysvars. Pain and pleas are essentially the same, same with bodloss/gain. Depth and Ypos are the same. Vel and velup. Plus all the millions of tie commands that only semi work.

I have and I've been leaning towards it.  trefvars will be obsolete likely by next version, and some things, like *.fixed and *.fixpos can be combined into one since you're not allowed to modify memory locations until all genes have executed.

Problem is the backwards compatibility problem.

Here's the readme, it's been updated for every major release, so newer stuff should be there.

Woooohoooooo! I have done the database and a quick ASP page to test it.

Click Here!

I was wondering if anyone could read through it lol, I know it's long but I need to know which descriptions are wrong or too vague. Maybe you could write them down then post them here then I can change them. Thanks!

Nice database but I am a little concerned that each time I click your link I am hit with a really nasty virus attack. Luckily my firewall catches it and warns me.

The "about.blank" worm.

This little bastard hijacks your home page and sends you to some bogus site with links to all kinds of products that you don't want, then gives you lots and lots and lots of lovely popups which you just can't quite seem to make stay closed. Eventually it starts to make all your explorer programs fail bit by bit. First IE then then Windows explorer and finally the dialog boxes in your applications.

I have had this thing twice at home.
The first time I had to format the hard drive to get rid of it.
The second time I found a program called StopZilla which finally trashed it. No other spyware or virus program would touch it.
There are 10 kinds of people in the world
Those who understand binary.
and those who don't
