AW_WORLD_RESTRICTED_RADIUS

Dec 23, 1998, 1:28am
Are you sure of that, Walter? In Atlantis, my Hambots were sent 220 m
up in the sky when near GZ. I supposed that's their idea of muting...

chat string processing curiosa

A difference in 2.0 and 2.1 worlds' chat string processing?

I had a little trick with my bot, which doesn't work any more in 2.1
worlds. In my explanation, i'll symbolise the newline character with
{n}, and the tab with {t}.

If have my bot [Delph] send the following chatline:

How are you, table?{n}Table:{t}Very well, thank you Delph.{n}{t}And
how are you today?

The chatline would appear in the browser so (still does in 2.0
worlds):

[Delph]: How are you, table?
Table: Very well, thank you Delph.
And how are you today?


I could have inanimated objects respond in this way. This trick does
not work in AW, presumably this has been changed in 2.1 worlds to
avoid abuse. Yet, it's a pity, you could also format text with
newlines in this way. Is this to be a permanent feature?

Another thing that has disappeared is the degrees sign (I havn't
tested other high ASCII symbols). I still have it in 2.0 worlds...

Roland, may I suggest the following:

If it's only a matter of preventing abuse, you could preserve the
formatting ablility by:

a. firstly supressing all tabs
b. changing all newlines to newline + tab

This would align the text properly. Since you are allready
substituting, it should not be too difficult or time consuming to do.
Its a pity to loose the newline altogether.
