[ML-Scripting]Is this possible?

Can I determine if a player that is browsing my manialink is in a server or on menus? Some magical maniascript function maybe?

I'd like to change manialink stuff depending on player status

w/o getting MPWS players online_status, i'm not breaking any privacy stuff.

It's probably not bulletproof, but you could check the value of CurMap. If it's not Null, then there's a high chance that the player is on a server (or editing a map in the editor?).

Code: Select all

<script><!--
main() {
  while(True) {
    yield;
    
    if (CurMap != Null) {
      log(Now^"> I'm on a server");
    } else {
      log(Now^"> I'm not on a server");
    }
  }
}
--></script>

Ah! Nice idea, I'll give it a try :thx:

Do I need to #include something?
