I downloaded the k_news script from grimys and it seem to lock up my twx.

ive tried it a couple times..

The same thing happens with 'news' commands in latest mombot when there are pages and pages of planet busting.

Post subject:  Re: k_news
well Ill fix my code and leave the Mom guys to theirs.

two things that I want to add to the script is maximum planet bust limit and compare corpies on the possible pods to filter out the SDT/SST furbing as this creates to much spam.


Server name and game where this is happening to either script please. I dont frequent ORE Whore style games or unlim's so...

server name and game letter please

from a test game. The script does run for 12 seconds before output...Is that what you mean by Locked up?


I did find one small bug but it shouldn't cause anyone to lock up. I go out of my way to prevent endless loops when possible.

The update as been posted to grimy's

That sounds like a lot of processing, or is that an intentional delay?

I has to read the daily log, which in some games can be quite long. Not sure if he has the read time buffered or not.

Code is posted.

http://www.classictw.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=25344

I lot of things must be sorted , counted , padded for output and then output.

I have never had it lock up a twx.

Waiting for the server addy and game letter to verify claim.

Legion was right the script locked up the TWX...however the dailies log constisted of 4 corps planet pimping for 20 hours straight in an umlim/truce thing. Just to READ the dailies took 8 minutes to scroll through.

Obviously Twx hit some kind of limit on its ability to process and filter the info. Looking into a fix.

Post subject:  Re: k_news
I have limited the output to max of 400 planets.
After this I doubt there is any useful info.
This seems to have solved the issue.

Re uploaded to Grimy's.

Thx for the bug report.
