Hello everybody, T64|Skyline and I are coding a new Bot for the LFDS. This Bot will support RH7 and RH8.
It is programmed inside the Scripts-RH8.so/Scripts.rh7.so
It has already an IRC Output, Announcesystem and will support an XWIS Server/Client like the Windows FDS it has.(I hope we get the bugs fixed when XWISP is released and we can look for the problem)
Heres a Commandlist of the Bot whats already in it:
NEW LFDS Console Commands:
*=Available in Version 1.1
wpage, wlocate
setfps*, gameon*, gameoff* -> (Gameon -> Gameplay allowed, good for Linux COOP Server)
IRC Commands: !help !bstats !cmd(Sends directly Commands to the Console) !version !rules !qkick !setmoney !setrules !curveh !testcin !flys !endmap (!gameover) !rainon !rainoff !time !msg !announce !ginfo (!gi) !setannounce !kill !getbw !getping !getip !vlimit !setvlimit !mlimit !setmlimit !wpage <text> !wlocate <user> !gdipage <message> !nodpage <message> !gdiwin !nodwin
WOLUSERJoin Announce for IRC or Ingame
(example utCampa is trying to join the Game via WOL.)
When we fix the NAT Stuff with XWISP we are going to update Adminsystem which is already simply included.(It announces an Admin who is defined in admins.txt with Name(Admin) join the Server.)
Secondly it will have an Live Server Stats Output. (Not directly live maybe 5 seconds later than. It is so that nobody can abuse the Server status)
For this visit http://pb-live.team64.eu/
More information to this will be added later.
For the XWIS thing I will say there is everything except the NAT Thing is working fine. It will only support these 2 Commands not any more.
The Bot will also Support a own Veteran System, and it will allow to play a test_cinematics from irc.(For everyone who dont know what that is-> CnC_C130drop.txt)Simple by !testcin "filename.txt" then it plays the test_cinematic from the filename in Zone:
X(0) Y(0) Z(0). Test Cinematics for the Nod Base, GDI Base will be added in a later Version.
You can enable or disable every of these Command via the config.ini.
Please dont confuse If this text includes a few spelling mistake or time mistakes my english isnt perfect.
Now I`m waiting for your Comments 
Visit and dream about it http://pb-live.team64.eu

Thanks for the positive comments 
To the Questions:
Yes I think we will completely rebuild the xwisp functions to c++.
And yes We will release updates when a new scripts.dll version come out. (Its currently based on Scripts 2.9)
Next Question: We have rebuild the SSAOW a bit so that it will work for Linux, so it works fine for us.
We dont think that we make the Bot on Winows there are other people like Blackintel which already
have Renegade Bots that Connect other Scripts.dll to IRC.
And finally the question about releasing the Source...
For this I can say you We dont know it yet.
If you want I can send you a beta version of the Bot (which includes the ssaow) to test it with XWISP.

Well we have build our own SSAOW because this own thats currently available have many things thats very strange(and includes many memory leaks) we didnt copy any code of it, and only looked how they made it. If we really need to release something then only
the new SSAOW part not the full bot source.

SSAOW is under GPL because the scripts.dll is under GPL. Using any code from the scripts.dll means the source will have to be released.
Let all your wishes be granted except one, so you will still have something to strieve for.

"Technically" since scripts.dll is GPL any derived work of it (anything created afterwards that uses its code or interfaces with it) would also be subject to the GPL and thus would have to have full source released. I'm sure this is why WhiteDragon releases the source for SSAOW (and probably so people can learn from it).
I say "technically" because I doubt jonwil would call the GPL lawyers and initiate an expensive court battle over it. Also scripts.dll itself is a grey area, as in - can you GPL something that is based upon reverse engineering (which is what jonwils scripts.dll is) of a copyrighted product (Westwood's code)?
I would suggest releasing the source just to "play nice", and who knows, perhaps other folks will look at your code and suggest improvements, or make them themselves, and release it back to the public, or learn some cool C++ tricks...you know, the whole spirit of open source thing
I know that some people don't like the idea of someone "stealing" their ideas/code/whatever. But I guess you have to decide if what you are making is private for you, or are you releasing it publically. If its for "everyone" to use, then why not release the source so that they can see how it works, and customize it (within the limits of the GPL), and help improve it. It makes it easier on everyone. For instance, when WD builds a new ssaow, he just grabs the latest publically available source of jonwils scripts.dll to compile with it. If jonwil kept the code secret, then releasing things that work with it would be much more difficult, and we likely would see less great things like SSAOW be created.

I'm gasping on what SK said:

I doubt the scripts.dll license is valid at all is it is based on reverseengineering.
|
That the GPL license on the scripts.dll possible isn't even valid.

Update:
I think there is still a crashbug but i dont know how to run the renserver with a debugger like gdb so i thought somebody can do that? Would be happy of it..
And when he could tell me what crashes and maybe which lines creates the crash. On linux theres no crashlog file so jonwil couldnt look for my problem.
I will release a Beta Version with full opensource within this or next weekend.
Added Functions:
!nomusica
!play "file" <- plays a mp3 file out of your data folder.
Added Commands:
wtopic - Changes the currently WOLTOPIC (could be useful..)
If somebody got an Idea about a feature I should include. Just tell me what and maybe it will be included 
Things to fix:
For XWIS:
Maphash in Topic, Maphash in :GINFO:(would also be cool if someone could do that for me Im currently replacing the mapname which is ugly..)
For the Main Code of PwnageBot:
The SSAOW/CCM Bug or the XWis bug i just mentoint which crashes the Game.
