ShootMania:
to increase the usability of the storm it would be great if you could set the center point of the storm with coordinates and not just with block ids

one thing that would be really really helpful is a library for actual json conversation
currently we can only craft our own json string that can be SENT to a server but FETCHING data from a server is soo incredibly dirty because we would have to parse it step by step etc

of course it's kind of difficult to decode a json without dynamic objects but it's still possible
either with associative arrays or with key-value coding


does anyone have an idea for a clean way to parse a data string with a constant structure but with a dynamic length and with unpredictable values?

[w1lla]

Code: Select all

 public function __construct($json = false) {
        if ($json)
            $this->set(json_decode($json, true));
    }

    public function set($data) {
        foreach ($data AS $key => $value) {
            if (is_array($value)) {
                $sub = new RpcObject();
                $sub->set($value);
                $value = $sub;
            }
            $key = lcfirst($key);
            $this->{$key} = $value;
        }
    }

This is what i did... Then just get the variables which are sent by the array.

i'm talking about maniascript and not about php

//edit: i guess i will have to mess around with xml

XML is like violence: if it doesn’t solve your problem, you aren’t using enough of it.

Medium/High:

Bug of Nickname of Players that are too long in ScoreTable.

The NickName of Players isn't filled properly or are too big. In for example siege, players nicknames are combined with the armors they have left. Which is quite unreadable.

Bug of Nickname of Players that are too long in ScoreTable.

It's fixed in the next version. Do you have other examples than in Siege? With a screenshot if possible.

a Color Property for the class CMlGauge would be great
so you don't have to create a new manialink all the time (for a changed color="" attribute)

[steeffeen]

i thought it has been requested already but i couldn't find the thread

- please make it possible to close the current manialink from maniascript
with that i mean that the complete manialink browser closes as if you would have hit the Escape key or clicked on a control with action="0"
