Spring RTS Engine

Would it be possible to link PM messages to a little box ingame? So when someone PMs you whilst you are ingame you can read or maybe reply to them whilst in game from the HUD?

can the autohost interface be used for a normal lobby?

I believe AF was pissed about having to find out about the autohost interface through luck, since the workable lobby applications weren't considered and only autohost people were told. In short, yes dependent on a rather soft memory of mine.

Yes, but only for the host, so relaying lobby private messages for the other players wouldn't work.

Well, personnaly I don't think I needed anything else than the EVENT enumeration type which is detailed in the first lines of the AutohostInterface.cpp file.

Can I get a unified lobby/client/autohost/spring/singleplayer/windows/linux/mac program PLEASE.

Lolspringlobby?

That covers everything except the autohost.

Something that also includes all of the good features of every single lobby client made to date?

springlobby...

Seriously, where have you been?

I didnt implement the autohost interface entirely in the end because there was no available spring release that it worked correctly in except SVN.

When the next spring release occurs Ill likely put it in a script of some kind.

Autohost interface does not work properly atm..
We need next spring.

Springie is not using it to achieve 'autohost interface' functionality, it's hacking..
