i'm dreaming of a possibility to build own plugins for the maniaplanet which are running the whole time in the background or at least at some points (while being on a server for example)
i think that would be really cool because with the help of own manialinks you could add own information and tools to your interface and customize it even more
example addon:
- you want to know when players change their team
- the solutions which are currently available aren't really good solutions for a generic player (server controllers, inside game mode script)
-> better: you enable the feature inside your maniaplanet-plugin which runs while being on a server and it informs you about stuff like that
you could even build social media reader and so on (ingame notifications on emails, posts, messages from outside the maniaplanet)
of course they don't have to support everything but at least some features would be great, the class is already there and official plugins (like chat) are running all the time, just custom ones are missing

feedback would be appreciated
thanks
steff
