why use ElseIf: it's correct programming syntax! Even if you CAN just use
If, EndIf, If, EndIf, that isn't the CORRECT way to do it...

there's another VR chatting app called Blaxxun Explorer around...also based
on SnowCrash (before they changed their name they called themself
BlackSun)...it's a plugin...anyway, only the AWCI could've done it (they'd
NEVER give the source-code to anyone else to do THAT), so post this in the
wishlist NG :-))

Got some news from the MBE/KAHBOT :-)) we're developping an ActiveX control
for VB, that will allow VB bots to be networked. We made this because all
bots could benefit as a great tool like the Xelagot server, but since that
only works for Xelagots, we're making a general tool. VBUBN stands for
Visual Basic Universal Bot Network and v1.0 beta will be released shortly
:-)) check out www.kahbot.com for all our bots :-))

well, looks like there are quite a lotta bot networks around...well, I
looked at Bone, but since it was C and because there was no reference to any
VB port, I discarded it. I got the idea from the Xelagot network (as
described on the website) but I also discarded it as it was Delphi, I didn't
know of m a k a v e l i's thingy (anyway, I started working on this project
months ago, and NO I didn't use months to write the VBUBN2 control, I
rewrote it on Friday).
And I just released VBUBN2 version 1.1.0 :-))

List1.text?? and if you store names only, you can't do it (whispers are sent
to session numbers). Brant released some code for making session tables a
few days ago, check that out. and you have to use something like this if you
want to retrieve a session # from a list:
receive = List1.ListItem(List1.ListIndex)

now, if you actually tought before posting, you would realize that if nobody
posts there, the situation won't change. if you HAD posted there, other ppl
would see it, possibly answer you and ppl would start frequenting the NG.
but if you say that because there are no posts there, you won't post, you're
just being silly! even this SDK NG started off with 0 posts in it, you know!
it's really annoying trying to provide a nice service to ppl and then they
jump on you cuzz nobody has posted there, cuzz when they got what they
wanted they didn't care anymore!

NGs...
KAH
May 26, 2001, 1:07pm
I have a similar mechanisn on an RPG bot I'm making: it has a var called
AvCount. when an av enters you have AvCount +1 and when an av leaves you
have AvCount - 1. all tough I don't use this for logging in and out, I use
it for tporting the bot, so that it joins somebody when they come, and goes
back to the standby position when they leave/register an account. I had that
problem as well when I was new to bots, it's because of
QuickStart/QuickStop. I'd rather use sdk.AwDestroy if I were you... and to
be sure, use the full login code...
