NOT what I needed to know.
I know that its like graal://Zone/, but what about the extra thing?
e.g.

graal://Zone/whatever

[Gambet]

graal://servername

I.E:

graal://Zone


Type it into a web-browser to have the client automatically open and log you in to the specified server.


You can also create a website shortcut icon and release it on the forums of your own server so that you can just double click the icon to be logged into your own server without having to open the client and scroll through servers and so forth.

You can check for this parameter when a player logs on.

Say you put in graal://Playerworld1234/event4 and made the hyperlink say "Play CTF". When you login the npcserver goes event4 = warp them to 15 25 ctf.nw and voila, you're playing CTF striaght from your browser.

Cool. I can totally find some way to abuse this.

[Tyhm]

Only if you have NPCServer controls...

I've always wanted to ask this also, how do you check the param?

PHP Code:

function onActionPlayerOnline(which, param, is, it) 


[cbk1994]

You could try in NPC-Control

PHP Code:

function onActionPlayerOnline()
{
  echo( params );
} 


[Inverness]

Text: Do Not Click This
URL: graal://Aeon/jailplayer

[Admins]

I think it is

PHP Code:

function onActionServerStartParams() {
  echo("start parameters: " @ params);
} 


in the Control-NPC (or if (actionserverstartparams) ... in GS1). It is actually triggered by the server list script.

Superbump. Is this no longer supported by the game client, or is it a Windows 7 thing?

Uh it still works for me.

Confirmed by testing myself with RC message to myself in-game. v6, Windows 7.

<a href="graal://Login">Click me!</a>

or

Click me!

Would send you a message saying "Click me!" in a lighter text with underline (like in the second example), making it apparent to be a link to the above, sending you to the Login Server.

Text between the html tags can also be changed to an Image which you can click for the same effect (Great for jokes and iconic messages)

Is there any way to do this with the RC client?

You have to include the direct link in the shortcut to Graal6.exe. There's an example in Dusty's thread about this I think.

No, RC takes only text messages. Any HTML you'd use would only show what you tried to send in its text form.

like I mentioned above,

Click me!

Would end up being

<a href="graal://Login">Click me!</a>

in the RC message. Unless you mean Client RC, then I have no idea.

So does my mobile <3

[Fulg0reSama]

Also about that image piece, this can also be done with images too.



Click my adorable avatar to go straight to the login server!

Of course this is simply the forum codes version.

the HTML version is merely <a href="directory or website link here">"content of message / link here</a>

Turns out it's just Chrome that refuses to recognize it when I type it manually, thanks.

This is true.

If you're creating a shortcut to link to Graal.

What you do is once the shortcut is created.

Right Click the Shortcut>Properties>Target> Should say something like this. (Reversing the \ so that it won't make smileys)

Drive Letter:/Users/PC Name/Graal/Graal6.exe

All you do to make it link the client to what server you wish to go to is

Drive Letter:/Users/PC Name/Graal/Graal6.exe graal://servernamehere

-EDIT-: Of course this is how it installed onto my drive, depending on operating system and other odd variables dependant on you, it could be directed differently, this could b a whole different process on something other then Windows.

Because I can't edit my last post, I have to make a double post, regarding to the problem ziro thought he had.

I wish to refer to this thread.
