Hiya GTK,

DG5 is excellent thank you very much (Y)

i have a few :P;) tweaks i personally would like if its possible its my wish list :D and i hope you may see one or two useful.

 

Tweaks.

 

Dogcollar\Auto Room Joiner\ Can we have a GO button which will join the selected rooms immediately?

 

Dogcollar\keys\Room name\ Is it possible for this to have a dropdown selection of the rooms in the Autoroom joiner?

 

ChokeChain\Room Locks\Modes\ Is it possible to be able to remove the tick from the Kick\Dehost option, at the moment they toggle? So it is monitoring the mode changes and the "React message" could be either displayed in the room or just in my screen, this would be independant of AOP list, is it possible to have an optional sound for it?

 

ChokeChain\Room Locks\Topic&OnJoin\ Sames as Modes, and can we have a GET current topic or OnJoin, it then could be edited right there and reposted

 

ChokeChain\Room Locks\Keys\Same as Modes, This isnt working for me, the values dont hold

 

ChokeChain\Room Locks\ownerhost\ Same as modes

 

ChokeChain\Flood\knocks\ Can we have an option that when a flood is detected, that GD reacts to also stop the flood by changing room modes, in this case GD5 would do a -u for a duration, in a genuine flood no person can do it, but GD could before its an issue?

 

ChokeChain\Join Options\Non-Sub\ Can we have the "Do not apply" functioning as i can bring in a non-sub into my room and if its in the room accesslist it has the ability to funtion as a host, just cant talk, and i dont want to kick it out?

 

Clone Protect\Protection\ Is it possible to have this as a monitor the "Message" can be selected via tick boxes for kick , display in room , or display just for me?

 

Scriptkicker\ can we have an option where the script info is displayed in just my room screen and a sound added so i can monitor whats joining, monitoring wouldnt be stopped if it was a Admin or Local Owner etc?

 

Dogcollar\Auto Room Joiner\ Can we have a GO button which will join the selected rooms immediately?

Ok, will do, i have added it to DogCollar Connection, it will come in the next update.

 

Dogcollar\keys\Room name\ Is it possible for this to have a dropdown selection of the rooms in the Autoroom joiner?

Unsure what this comment is about.

 

ChokeChain\Room Locks\Modes\ Is it possible to be able to remove the tick from the Kick\Dehost option, at the moment they toggle? So it is monitoring the mode changes and the "React message" could be either displayed in the room or just in my screen, this would be independant of AOP list, is it possible to have an optional sound for it?

I will impliment this in, i understand what you mean.

 

ChokeChain\Room Locks\Topic&OnJoin\ Sames as Modes, and can we have a GET current topic or OnJoin, it then could be edited right there and reposted

Same as above, though i'm not sure if i will bother with Get Current topic, because it requires a bit of work, and can get confusing when your in more than 1 room, that was the main reason why i didn't put in the get current topic/onjoin.

 

ChokeChain\Room Locks\Keys\Same as Modes, This isnt working for me, the values dont hold

 

ChokeChain\Room Locks\ownerhost\ Same as modes

Unsure what you mean by these comments.

 

ChokeChain\Flood\knocks\ Can we have an option that when a flood is detected, that GD reacts to also stop the flood by changing room modes, in this case GD5 would do a -u for a duration, in a genuine flood no person can do it, but GD could before its an issue?

The code is half there, with the next update, it will be there, it will turn knocks off and that. But you can enable knock flood protection which should help for the time being.

 

ChokeChain\Join Options\Non-Sub\ Can we have the "Do not apply" functioning as i can bring in a non-sub into my room and if its in the room accesslist it has the ability to funtion as a host, just cant talk, and i dont want to kick it out?

I left it disabled so that it would have maximum performance when a flood occurred. That is why it has been disabled, same with long nicks and guests.

 

Clone Protect\Protection\ Is it possible to have this as a monitor the "Message" can be selected via tick boxes for kick , display in room , or display just for me?

It is possible, guess i would have to modify the dialog a bit to fit it in, so it may not come with the next update, but after exams i could do it (approx 6 week wait).

 

Scriptkicker\ can we have an option where the script info is displayed in just my room screen and a sound added so i can monitor whats joining, monitoring wouldnt be stopped if it was a Admin or Local Owner etc?

Same as above, can be done, will most likely be looked at after my exams.

Sorry, where i wrote "Same as modes" i meant that i personally would like the tweaks being applied to

ChokeChain\Room Locks\Modes\ to be applied here too.

 

With ChokeChain\Room Locks\Keys\ i ticked the "Held OwnerKey" "Held Hostkey" and keyed in values then closed ChokeChain and re-open it and the values werent there, i just tested it again and what i get repeated now is the value for the HostKey is gone-clear, and the value that was in HostKey is now in OwnerKey

Yeah i understand what your saying, is it possible to have a tickbox to enable or disable it?

 

Thank you very much GTK for your time and quick reply.

 

ST4

see how when you see there are checkboxes next to the join options (like flood protection and that), just untick that box, and it shouldn't kick non-subs.

 

I will look into the other problems and see what i can do to fix them.

Hiya GTK,

Clone protect\protection

We do have a few people who constantly change their nicks and i would like to run this so it displays in my room screen, but i think if i tick that box it also enables the kick function, i dont want to kick them, is it possible to have a tickbox for kick enable as well?

 

ST4.

it should only kick if the user takes another user's nickname.

it should only kick if the user takes another user's nickname.

 

Hiya GTK,

I can see that in a room that is having trouble with cloners it would be good to kick any incidence of it, but on the other hand a safe room that has a number of ppl using scripts a honest clonning of a "nickname" like "test" could easily happen and the ONLY way i can know about it is when they are kicked.

 

Just a thought generally, i dont like turning kicks on until ive tested it, that it actually only does what its supposed to before i use it in an active room. The monitoring aspects of GD5 are excellent i love them, but where its tied to a UNconditional kick i cant use it in the rooms i host in. Its the same sort of issue with kicking non-subs, IF the rooms i host in ever go to kicking non-subs, i wouldnt be able to set it in GD5 because we have hosts that ARE non-subs, my hands are tied in what i can do for the room then.

 

I hope this helps,

 

ST4

yea i understand your point of view. It's a complex situation, i'll consider it a bit down the track, but for now i wont do much more than update what i need to, as in fix up the errors that get sent in and that, as i have my half yearly exams in 2 weeks or so.

Hiya GTK,

Totally agree with your priorities

Hiya GTK,

Can i add to my wish list??? :D

 

Create ~ room name

could we have this enlarged to make full use of whatever MSN will allow?

 

 

Create ~ Topic

I have a room that i delibrately have a long topic and ive found that there is a limit in the "Create - topic" which is smaller than the topic i can change to if im already in the room, next time i reload GD5 and it comes to autocreating the room it errors.

Can the Create - topic be enlarged plz??

 

 

Dogcollar ~ Setup ~ Keys

i found that i could only delete one at a time and it didnt fresh, i had to go out of setup and back in to refresh, is it possible to select multiple entries for delete etc??

 

 

:taz:

ST4

 

create room has it's limitations because i don't want the room list filling up with !!!!, but you guys keep harassing me, so i might put it in just to shut you up :P

 

The topic create has to be short because the sockwrite experiences problems if it's to long.

 

I will look into the keys problem.

Oh yeah one thing I noticed, you cant chose the area you want your room to be, like EN-CA , FR-CA and so on.

yea, i thought it wasn't really a requirement, as majority of places can't get sign ups, only US (from knowledge).

What about us canadians? :oops:

arr stick you guys... :P Jokes.

 

I'll add it when i go to remodify the dialog again, as i'll re do the load previous settings and that.

Hiya GTK,

I dunno if this is tweak or small addon , i wanted to load the info of a room into the room database, so if the room moofed it would autocreate, is there a "room datadase editor", to load/change the info just like the create popup, which i think is the primary way its loaded?

 

:taz:

ST4

 

It does that already, if room doesnt exsit and you have it saved in room create, it'll auto create room/s.

yep molson is right. GuarDDog already has that.

 

To use it, goto DogCollar Connection [Main] > Create Room

 

Put in all your details, before clicking OK, see on the bottom left of that dialog it says Save Settings? tick that box. Then click create (even if the room is already created, it will save the settings for you). That's it. After that, if you attempt to join the room, and it isn't there, it will automatically create it, and join it for you. If you have the latest updates, you can select an access list, meaning that it will auto import an access list for you.

Hiya GTK,

(even if the room is already created, it will save the settings for you)

 

Thanks it workers.

 

Is it possible to add a check box or 2 for modes like +u, +m , save having to manually do it every time?

yea i guess i could add those in, but i don't want to do to much to it as i don't want users having every possible feature available, as you could imagine how abusive that could be.
