Look. I had a real simple theory for it all.
Have Stefan set up a special NPCServer where everything's assumed to be CLIENTSIDE unless it specfically says otherwise (like a clientside tag at the end). Where Toweapons still works, playerrupees++ was still a command, etcetera. Then we'd fix it one command at a time, and as we went, we'd disable the old clientside commands.
"Simple." And we'd stay motivated because we'd be making progress.
But Stefan said it was quite impossible, and so we had to convert three or four years essentially from scratch. Not just that but reinvent arrows for serverside. Swords for serverside. Hearts for serverside. MOVEMENT for serverside. BADDIES for serverside. BOMBS for serverside. ITEMS for serverside. FRELLING SIGNS FOR SERVERSIDE. "SAY 3" IS NO LONGER A COMMAND.
So my head exploded and I quit. And these young revolutionaries took it upon themselves to take my toil, three years of my life, dig it out of the dumpster and try and make it playable again.
Thank you. |
