MSAC ScriptCore extensions

[Mr]

also u can add this script to MSAC.dll file, ya? it would be turning on/off by command

This is not possible due to how MSAC works. I can not just combine it with a script which is executed from memory. Please use the script on your server instead.

• msac-liststatus -> [Error] (45:1): Syntax error
• msac-liststatus -> [Error] (45:1): Unexpected end of file

I get the same error.
Re-downloaded and works fine now.Ty.

i've got two questions:
1) what is reliable way to determine whether MSAC is running o not
2) What the difference between GetPlayerStat(ID, 'MSAC.ClientInstalled') returning false and GetPlayerStat(ID, 'MSAC.Status') returning MSAC_STATUS_NO_CLIENT or MSAC_STATUS_NO_CLIENT_AND_WARNED? I mean is the second function just extended version of the first, or are they completely different?

[Mr]

To 1)
I have not implemented a method to check if the server itself is running MSAC yet as there is no way to do so for me. Adding a function to check this would break the scripts if they are running on non-MSAC servers since the function will not be defined there.
To check if MSAC it running, call GetPlayerStat(1, 'MSAC.GUID'). If it equals an empty or nonempty string, MSAC is running. If the type is not a string, MSAC is not running.

To 2)
You are right that GetPlayerStat(ID, 'MSAC.ClientInstalled') isn't anything but an alias to several MSAC.Status queries. However, in case that I ever add new status constants, MSAC.ClientInstalled will still return the correct value.

[Mr]

Important update for scripters:

The latest MSAC server (released just 5 minutes ago) fixes the GetPlayerStat(ID, 'MSAC.ClientInstalled') function. It now really returns a boolean, while an integer (0 or 1) has been returned before. If you were using GetPlyerStat(...) = 1 in your scripts before, remove the '= 1' please as else this call will always evaluate to false.

Kewl, I'll give it later a try (once I get my hand out of plaster thingy).
