well you have to use add a control and timer for each bot right? If your
first bot is controled by the control called sdk1 and sdk2 and so on then
you can set which bot it is controling by putting sdk1. before it or sdk2.
if you want to control the second bot. I may not make sense to you but i
know what im talking about lol.

in vb if you use grimms aw sdk control you have to make a new control and
timer for each bot you plan to make. You contorl the bots by making each
control have a similar name but whith a number for example for if you name
then by sdk# then you put sdk1. to control bot1 and sdk2. to control bot
two.

i was just about to post about that. I'm making a new game that involved
minipulating objects with a "create name" in their action field. And i
really need to learn how to query a small arena type section and chaneg the
action and description fields of them.

I've included a very simple ini module. It's just one funtion for saving to
an ini and one to read from it.
For colored chat youd need to use a richtext box which you can find in
the....compents (?) menu. Its called RichText box or something of that
nature and it looks like a textbox but you can change colors and fonts and
all that junk. I've never actually used it so don't ask me how to ACUTALLY
change colors on it.

Lol...
if there IS a registry it means there is enroahcment when someone builds on
another perosn area....no registry means theres no way to detect enroahcment
so peopel can build anywhere even over or under anothers.

are you sure the bot is even running on the same citnumber as the
feild....maybe you made the feidl bigger then you actually made it...theres
tons of reasons that couldve happened and the community knows its a beta so
thats warning enough.

May 25, 2002, 7:41pm
I'm trying to use a RichTextBox in a bot (this is vb btw) i'm making that i
can *hopefully* get done an release so it needs to look good. Im using one
for the chat window since i need colors and bold and all that. Thing is, i
don't know how to change the colors, make it bold, make indents, or
anything. I did find some code but it was for a text editor type prog where
you select the text and press the button. I need something where you can
chaneg the color through code before i change the text property.
Also a way to save the chat in a simple text file for logging purposes. One
part is whenever the chatevent is triggered it would add the line to the
file and another place where there is a button that saves all the chat
visible in the richtextbox into a text file.
Thanks

Sorry one more thing...
I have world files ("\data\worlds\" & sdk.AwWorldName & ".zwd") that hold
information about worlds that needs to be retratived when entering a world.
I have this under world attributes event so that when the bot enters the
world this event should trigger and have a check for this file to see if it
exists. If it does exist then it has data for this world and if not it will
set new data (i already have those parts). How do i check to see if this
file exists?

Scratch that my fault. Seems it DOES return a value but also will create it
at the same time. Problem was the world attributes calls too soon, i think
even before it has a change to change its state. I cna easily fix that
though sorry.

And another thing is the bot cannot use aw_say while invisible since there
is no avatar for it to come from. It cannot recevive whispers either since
it won't show in the whisper list. The main way to communicate while
invisibile is console messages.

Maybe this is a Windows XP thing becuase none of my bots using the new dll
do that in win98.

As you probably do not know...the AW Browser uses the same SDK as bots do.
Telegram events are used by the browser and cannot be used by bots, hence
why they arent in the help *duh* >:P

i dont want to keep repeating what everyone else says but dont use html for
text-only questions. Your one question took about 20k when that with just
text would only have taken about 1k. That 19k graphic and font information
is useless and just takes longer to download.
