Random Short Weird Tips

Had that too rancho, a clean install of archlinux fixed it for me :|


Here's how to check if a file exists for a client

The "FileExists" function is server only, as stupid as that is.
For the "ForEachFile" sintax, just type the command in console.
The "file_exists" variable is a custom one, but there are other "file_*" variables that are used by the "ForEachFile" command if you are interested in having a look.

Set file_exists false
ForEachFile * /path/to/file filename true "Set file_exists true"

UI equivalent:

Set('file_exists',0);
ForEachFile('*','/path/to/file','filename',true,Set('file_exists',1));

You can also GetCheckSum but it prints an error if file is not found.

I had a //string; lets ... comment in my script and was wondering why warnings were written

Another way to break a comment:

//Set active #IsEntityActive(|#index#)#

The function will be called even though it's supposed to be a comment. way to waste time.

I noticed this first way, the second is new to me. Thank you for sharing .

Avoid using 7zip to open .s2z files. I started using it and Savage 2 refused to read the .cfg files I edited, so I vividly recommend WinRAR.

For the .cfg files it works with Winrar, however if you want to work with the interfaces, they will get corrupted once you zip(winrar'd) them :-/

Since Holleau mentionned Total Commander a while back, since then, im using it no problem!

Ooh, that's good to know.
