Hidden Command Line Password (Or Backdoor?)

Wed, 17 Mar 2010 07:35:51 +0000

I'm trying to find a way to make some sort of backdoor sequence I can use in-game to access a username+password input to grant myself admin without worrying about what key/computer/internet I'm using on my game. I understand this can cause security risks. I'm fine with that.

Input with an exit button?

Wed, 24 Feb 2010 15:45:17 +0000

How do I make an input with an exit button? The closest I get is going

as null|anything in list

Which doesn't help me in my case whatsoever, because I'm making a text input.
Oh! And that doesn't give me an X button! :( Help!

Big Icon Density?

Mon, 15 Feb 2010 12:38:36 +0000

How do I apply an object's density for every tile of it's icon? For instance my dense Plasma TV spans 3 tiles horizontally, yet I am able to walk on the last 2 tiles of its icon. I've tried defining Entered() as return 0, but the results were inconclusive.

Any ideas?

Quick And Easy? MouseDrop() Selection Icon

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 14:48:22 +0000

turf
    MouseDrop(turf/a,turf/b)
        for(var/turf/T in block(a,b))
            del T

Basically I just need a way to show a selection icon when you drag your mouse across a block of turfs... Not quite sure how to use these, learning them just now. :)

Save System Error

Tue, 19 Jan 2010 03:16:39 +0000

Alright, I know my save system isn't the best, but it works well for me and I don't care to use any libs, including characterhandling. My one problem is that every once in a while someone will relog and I get the following runtime error:

runtime error: cannot append to list
proc name: Load (/mob/proc/Load)
  usr: Robin6675 (/mob/player)
  src: Robin6675 (/mob/player)
  call stack:
Robin6675 (/mob/player): Load()
Robin6675 (/mob/player): Login()

Here's my saving and loading code. If there's any way to alter anything I'm doing or even get around that problem I'd love to hear any suggestions:

mob
    proc
        Save()
            if(src.loggedin==null) return
            var/start = 1
            var/end = 2
            var/first_initial = copytext(src.ckey, start, end)
            var/savefile/F=new("players/[first_initial]/[src.ckey].sav")
            src.Write(F)        
            F["lastx"] << src.x 
            F["lasty"] << src.y 
            F["lastz"] << src.z 
            F["V"]<< src.verbs

        Load()
            var/start = 1
            var/end = 2
            var/first_initial = copytext(src.ckey, start, end)
            var/savefile/F=new("players/[first_initial]/[src.ckey].sav")
            src<<"<font color=black size=-1><b>Welcome Back!"
            world << "<font color='#191970'><FONT SIZE=+1><FONT FACE='Curlz MT'><B>[usr] has logged in!"
            src.Read(F)             
            var/newX
            var/newY
            var/newZ
            F["lastx"] >> newX
            F["lasty"] >> newY
            F["lastz"] >> newZ
            var/verbz
            F["V"]>>verbz
            if(verbz) src.verbs+=verbz
            src.loc=locate(newX,newY,newZ)  
            src.LoadHUD()
            src.LoginHUD()

Converting a list of objs to a number?

Sat, 16 Jan 2010 00:43:14 +0000

mob/verb/Object()
 var/obj/build/B=locate() in src.loc
 for(B)
  if(/*Object Amount?*/>=6)
   src<<"You cannot build more than 5 objects in this spot!"
   return
  else
   var/O=new/obj/Build/BuildObject(src.loc)
   etc etc etc...

That was just an example of what I want, but this is what I have, and I'm wondering if there's a way to make it work in a similar way to mine.

mob
    Build1
        verb
            Dresser()
                set category="Build"
                if(locate(/obj/Build/Dresser) in loc) return//Prevents overlapping
                var/a = new/obj/Build/Dresser(usr.loc)
                a:owner = "[usr.key]"

Topic Help

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 08:12:13 +0000

My topics aren't responding whatsoever, they used to work and I'm relatively new to them, so I need a bit of help...

client
    Topic(href,href_list[])
        switch(href_list["action"])
            if("grantadminchannel")
                src<<browse(null,"window=grant")
                usr.grantaccess(href_list["target"])
            if("revokeadminchannel")
                src<<browse(null,"window=revoke")
                usr.revokeaccess(href_list["target"])
            if("Call")
                usr.replyCall(href_list["target"])

Here's the object used to "call" someone, which has a link on the name so you can easily reply.

Block Overlap Building??

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 05:29:29 +0000

I've been trying to find a way to make sure people cant log in to my game and spam the same object in one spot, but apparently I suck. Can anyone help?

Here's the proc:

proc/overlaycheck(loc,a)
    var/t=0
    for(var/atom/T in loc)
        if("[m]"=="[a]"&&t==0)
            t+=1
            usr<<"No Overlapping."
            del(a)
            if(m1==1) {del(b);m1=0;return};if(m1==2) {del(c);m1=0;return}
            if(m1==3) {m1=0;return 1}
            return
        else
            m=a
            return

And here is how I worked it all in:

mob/player
    Build3
        verb
            Book_Shelf2()
                set category="Build"
                var/a = new/obj/Build/Book_Shelf2(usr.loc)
                a:owner = "[usr.key]"
                overlaycheck(loc,a)

If you're going to comment on how [please watch your language] my coding is, I don't care to hear it, please help me in my tiring endeavor! :(

HTML Form Timer? (Number Inputs?)

Fri, 11 Sep 2009 23:50:57 +0000

I need to make a text input that only allows numbers, and make it into a timer that works as such:

(HH:MM)

It should work like this:

If only numbers used - Timer works on hours, unless otherwise indicated with a colon, and 1 minute would look like this: (either 00:01, or :01)

If there are any demos or references for this I would greatly appreciate a link :)

\icon State?

Sun, 23 Aug 2009 09:03:37 +0000

How do you set a state with \icon?

And if you cant... Is there a way to just display an icon's entire file in a browser? I'm making a display icon verb.
