Encancements on package manager.

Dwight Spencer — Fri, 18 Mar 2005 00:02:07 -0000

I've been playing around with the package manager. Very
nice tool. But there's a set back.

I've been mirroring the packages on my server for a
bit now.
and while I do see the good in having each package globbed
in a single repository. It's a pain for administration.
It would be
nice to add in server side multi-directory support into
'gccg_parser'.. This will be of a great help seeing
since I've
been trying to give each package it's own directory.

Also, I have been working to extend this my selt, yet I'm
having trouble because of the xml parser is hard-wired
in. Very
nice for portiblity and ease of usage, just seems a bit
hard to
maintain. I'm going to try and see if I can clean up
the code a
bit thought it looks like I may need a rewrite to do
so. In which
case I'll be using perl modules, and that would most
likely
defeat the idea behind the portibility.

Thanks,

Change the Delaration system for multiplayer games

Anonymous — Mon, 27 Sep 2004 06:23:18 -0000

The ability to delare /lose when your loss, and then this counting as
an auto-ok for any win or undecided or draw declarations by other
players would be greatly appreciated. If all but one player
declared /lose, then the remaining player sohuld automatically be
declared /win.

This would alleviate the problem whereby players go afk when they
lose games, and dont return, leaving the game unable to be
resolved.

'Escrow service'

Andreas Wesik — Sun, 26 Sep 2004 01:34:18 -0000

When trading with ppl at the moment one has to trust
the other person.

A kind of 'escrow service' would be cool.

Example:
Both persons give it's goods (cards or money) to the
escrow with '/trade add'.
When both parties demands have been fulfiled both
parties issue some command like '/trade ok' and the
goods get traded.

Of course both parties can at any time before '/trade
ok' '/trade cancel' and both players goods go back to
the original owner.

/help bind bindk and unbind

Andreas Wesik — Sun, 26 Sep 2004 01:20:26 -0000

A mention of the command /unbind would be good to have
in the /help bind and bindk commands.

It would atleast make ppl like me look less like idiots
after managing to bind something to the Escape-button. :-)

Copy&paste from/to client-chat

Andreas Wesik — Sun, 26 Sep 2004 00:10:26 -0000

The possibilty to copy text to and from the clients
chat would be appreciated.

Of course OS-standards would be nice (like ctrl+v and
those for Windows).

Hand revealed notification

Andreas Wesik — Sun, 26 Sep 2004 00:03:57 -0000

(I play only M:TG so I will use it's terms although the
feature is for all kinds of games)

I'd really like to see some kind of notification that
once hand is revealed to other players.

All to often my opponent casts a spell so I have to
reveal my hand.
He looks at the hand, chooses something to discard or
whatever then he ends his turn.

Without thinking, I begin my turn and draws a new card
and on the chat my opponent says 'hey. . hide your hand'.

Perhaps the borders of the cards revealed could change
or something like that?

Some kind of marker that a card is revealed at least.

Same feature would be nice for cards put on the table too.

implementing 'ante' or easy trade

Anonymous — Thu, 05 Aug 2004 20:31:25 -0000

I am missing the options to ante and trade cards it
would be very nice to have an option to specify what
the winner gets .)

Apprentice formats

Onur Tugcu — Thu, 15 May 2003 12:17:01 -0000

apprentice (dragonstudios) is a win32 program for
playing magic: the gathering CCG over tcp/ip or solo.
As a feature, I'd like to see support the file formats
of that popular program. Perhaps I can help parsing them.

CVS

Paul Choquette — Sat, 15 Feb 2003 21:02:23 -0000

CVS would be nice for those that wish to help in the
development.

Version Rollback

Paul Choquette — Sat, 15 Feb 2003 20:54:52 -0000

It'd be nice to have version rollback implemented so that
if code doesn't work on a distribution, you can simply
revert back to the last working distribution.
