[Release] Event Commands

[TheSpidey]

This will allow players to quickly teleport to the event location, without the need to .summon every one of them.
A GM says #eventon where he wants players to port to, and from now all players can say #event to teleport there.
After the event ends the GM says #eventoff to disable the #event command (which will now show a message - "There's no active event at the moment.").

This works perfectly, I use it on my own server and it's getting huge success. Players much rather say #event than whisper the GMs, and my GMs thanked me because it saved them countless .summons.

Nice man, but any setup.h and StdAfx.h ?

One of my lead developers made something exactly liek this months and months ago. Posted now.

[Gastricpenguin]

If only i could rep you again :P

[мιяаgє]

Gastric, I have a feeling this is a script leak because my server has had this exact same script for ages, it was coded by our top coder and he did it himself.. =S

[TheSpidey]

I made this back in April, and yes I made it myself.

As for Setup.cpp and Setup.h, I just shove custom scripts in existing projects because i'm too lazy to make Setup.cpp/h for every script, and the structure is pretty much the same.
StdAfx.h is in your core.

[Power of Illuminati]

I see, will +Rep you tomorrow, given out to much rep today it seems like. =S

[мιяаgє]

[pachuco55]

would it be possible to implement a separation of alliance and horde? as in horde would be ported to one spot and alliance to another?

[Bloodsin]

Why not just do .mass summon or .mass

[TheSpidey]

.mass - players can accidently click it or cancel it.
#event - players can use it whenever they want as long as the event is open.

Why not just do .mass summon or .mass

Because often players are either not on yet or not paying attention, so you would need multiple mass summons. With this, the player can come whenever they want, or until the gm turns off the command.
