Program to Lock, Unlock, and end games

Dec 06, 2003 19:18 Program to Lock, Unlock, and end games

I got the first part of a program to lock, unlock, and end games done.

the way I want to implement it is it will be a single step program that is supplied the port the game is running on, attaches to it and sends commands to it via the command line interface.

The commands will be LOCK, UNLOCK, and QUIT.

The way I want it to work is like this:

wbdsmgr 62100 LOCK

First argument is the port the game is running on, second is the function.

Still got some problems with it, will let y'all know when I'm ready for a guinea pig to try it out on. Wonka looks at Sheeps. hehe.

When I'm done, I'll make the source available on .us, so if anyone wishes to enhance it they can.

Madd Maxx if you understood what it is you would realize that bot owners need it so they can provide functions like sheepbot lock etc

Dec 07, 2003 01:28

exactly... right on Wonka!

Dec 07, 2003 02:35

......and we could also get it for ourselfs.....itd be like sj spawner only it kills games too......

Dec 07, 2003 02:41

SJ, i thought that bot owners already can provide such functions...?

If they hire a midget to type it into winbolods, or run linux

They can, becuase other people have build similar programs. (Myself and SJ have both built programs that do the same thing.)

then why do we needs a new one min?

Dec 07, 2003 22:11

Because Min and I have programmed them and we are the black sheep shunned by the winbolo community, andything we have written cannot be good. and it would be somewhat supporting .us so i wouldn't hand it out unless the person was a good trustworthy person. And finding them is a pretty rough task in .us.

well, there is nothing wrong with wonka making another one .... but I do find it funny how him making one gets such fanfare, and yet the ones me and sj made (which was freely availible on my website until fairly recently) got ignored.

So you two think that if you re-released you'res.. you wouldnt be praised?

Dec 08, 2003 15:39

Lets all take a moment to remember the thread about this and sheepbot.

Good luck Wonka

Min, I know what you are saying. There are a lot of unsung heroes who have made some valuable contributions; and outside of a handfull of people, those contributions go unnoticed.

There are the people who contributed MIPS and bandwidth for the game bots, the map editors, the borgs, tournament operators, map contests, pix contests, supporting apps, IRC operators, script writers, Elvis, people who teach newbies how to play, and a seemingly endless list of other contributors.

You are right Min, they get to little recognition for their contributions.

I want to say thanks to all.

jhood we most likely wouldn't, some cockheaded newb like ren would be like "wonka already made this why are you releasing new ones". So developers.......your time is better spent working on something else ..... not on this game

Dec 08, 2003 23:36

Sj, stop speaking for me and go hang out with your Boy Friend, Flad.

Dec 09, 2003 01:43

Dec 09, 2003 02:38

and it proves your stupid enough to respond to it..

and yet ... sheepsbot started using sj's instead of mine ... what was the problem again? everyone else is free to use mine as much as they like .. just lrl, sheeps, and fi don't have my permission. I wonder why? ...

Once again your one of the few who understands the point I was trying to make. Thank you for that. Good luck with your programming projects. And I wish upon you more appreciation that I ever got ...
