I suspect, though I have not tested, that fcopy_rsc(file("...")) can place a server-side file into the dynamic .rsc.

You can use them in exactly the same way as standard '' files, no?
var/static_file = 'static.dmi' | |
fcopy_rsc doesn't return the file, it returns 1 or 0; whether or not it succeeded.
| |
Ref says it returns the cache entry reference.
Format: - http://www.byond.com/docs/ref/info.html#/proc/fcopy_rsc | |
Oh yeah, didn't realize that(what was I looking at?). Well that just confirms the feasibility of this request.
| |
You might've been looking right above it; fcopy() returns 1 on success, 0 on failure.
| |
Yeah probably, my eyes failed me.

Bump? It'd be useful for my scripting language, so that people can access all icon files in the rsc if they know the name. I could generate an associative list, but that's requires two extra intermediate steps (packaging the src so I only get the files in the game, then running the folder through a script).

Bump. This would be super helpful.
