So I wasn't the only one who noticed Smile


RE: What we're doing - ThuGie - 02-21-2015

Nope, there is suddenly so much to read.
Normally i check once a day, to notice 1 or 2 posts or none sometimes.
Now i check twice a day to try and keep up.


RE: What we're doing - NiLSPACE - 02-21-2015

Small question about cPlayer:GetUUID()
The documentation says the string could be empty if a player doesn't have a Mojang account. Does that mean that if a player has a cracked account he won't have an UUID?


RE: What we're doing - xoft - 02-21-2015

No, cracked account are allowed only when the server is in offline mode, and in such a case the players get assigned a server-local hash instead of an UUID. Of course this doesn't protect from name-changers, but at least the system is still functional.

What the note means that it is possible that some future players may not have IDs at all - players such as server-side bots (NPCs). I'm not sure if we'll go that way, though, we may assign a server-local hash to such players, too. I guess You can safely ignore this remark; all my plugins ignore it as well.


RE: What we're doing - NiLSPACE - 02-21-2015

Thanks,

Now another question. When I wrote the Login plugin a while back the md5 plugin returned a normal string, but now it returns something compressed or something. I know the md5 function was changed to use polarssl, so is there any chance we could have it return a normal string as well?


RE: What we're doing - DiamondToaster - 02-21-2015

So, is it possible to create a player instance from a plugin? A PvP AI would be the coolest thing ever.


RE: What we're doing - xoft - 02-21-2015

@STR I guess the old md5 function returned the string in hex form? It now returns the raw binary data obtained by md5-ing. It should be pretty straightforward to convert the new one to the old one (use gsub to replace each character with its hex form); on the other hand we might just add a new API function, md5HexString(), that would do the conversion.

I'll do it, I wanted to do SHA1 anyway, so it'll be a nice piece of an addition.

@DiamondToaster: It's not currently possible, the cPlayer class is too dependent on the cClientHandle class, but it is a feature that is in the backlog (somewhere really far, but it's there Smile )

Yeah, we're not there yet. I'm starting an AI plugin, but there are some hooks and function calls in the main server that we still need.

This is a volunteer program, we all have lives. I'm a total newbie in this project (and environment) and the guys that do the brunt of the work are -- well, doing the brunt of the work when they can. Smile

But again, yes ... that is the direction the project is going down.


RE: What we're doing - xoft - 02-21-2015

@STR: Added in the CryptoHashAPI branch, here's the PR: https://github.com/mc-server/MCServer/pull/1758
I exported the functions in a new namespace, cCryptoHash, to avoid global namespace pollution. The old global md5 function is unchanged in functionality, but will log a warning that it is obsolete.

You guys take your time. Tongue I can definately wait. The progress you guys have already made is absolutely amazing. If it wasn't for lack of Forge support (I know that's a bit impossible), This would be the ONLY piece of Minecraft related software I would ever touch. Keep up the awesome work!
