  • Adding Actions

    From Todd Holcomb@3:770/3 to All on Sun Mar 13 14:37:11 2022
    Is there a way to add more Actions which are viewed in Nodespy and Who's on the BBS? For example, mps door games like Double-up will show the user is "Playing Double-Up!" in Nodespy, and that information is contained within that game's script. Is there
    a way of showing what game a user is playing for non mps door games, like by using a command in the Theme/Prompt or Menu Editor?

    Thanks!

    Yes you can add whatever you want when you configure your door in the menu editor. In this case you would add an action before running the program to set the node action, like this:

    Hotkey: 1
    Text : (1) My Game

    Action List:
    (NA) Set Node Action Playing My Game
    (DD) Execute external program c:\bbs\mygame.bat

    This will set the node action for that user to Playing My Name and then run the game.
