Unread post Re-naming an inactive game remotely.
i recently tried to make a game in an attempt to bang it remotely. but when i tried to bang it i noticed that it was missing a word in the "title."

since i cannot access my game server as i am out of town at this time and don't know how to change the name of the game remotely. i guess the game won't go active until i get home and rename the game manually.

so my question is this. is there a way to rename a game remotely?

i already know TWGS 2.08 might allow this and i am using 2.07 at this time for the reasons stated earlier.

i would also like to know if i can do it remotely in twgs 2.07? if so how?

This is actually something I hadn't thought to include. It's a slow process getting all of the functionality into remote admin that needs to be there. It usually takes an op needing it and reporting about it. I'll add that to my list.

I was planning to add a special in-game scripting language to allow gameops to access and modify all game data directly from the game using commands like "get user.name" and "set user.credits = 10000". I actually had the basic functionality and it was just a matter of adding in all of the different records and fields to be exposed.

If you could add this type of functionality to tedit, I think it would be a great step forward for server side scripts. Like having a CIM mode in tedit.

i just hope i did not open pandora's box. with my question. it was mainly just a question of "is there a way to fix a typo in one of my inactive games remotely?" question.

Oh. No ;)

It's a feature that needs to be added.
