Unread post Spoof Checking
Ive been reading through some great scripts and have started a few little personal projects of my own. One of the big things that I see still used in the game is traders trying to spoof anothers script, so for us new to TWX scripting what are some spoof checks we should be adding to our scripts? Ive also looked through some open source scripts and found some great checks, what are a few checks that the seasoned writers consider a must in their scripts?

I believe there is a file called stupid ANSI tricks on tw-cabal (navhaz.com) that can give you some ideas. If you play w/o ANSI then these ideas don't do much good though.

Take a look at the code for Dyn's aka Sing's scripts on Navhaz site.

his pdrop and foton have some checks in them.

Also word count matters alot... if its grabing something after like "(" and not using a count...it can be spoofed.

As far as Subspace... first word is always a "R" so thats a simple check to make sure its on your channel.
