dUtilLib Ideas!

BlackCoyote · Aug 6, 2016

Hey guys

Me and Anthony are working on a script utility library meant to put a bunch of tedious tasks into one script package to make scripting a lot easier.

We're looking for procedural things mostly. things that just process data in a specific way for you where you throw in an argument and get something else back!

If you have any ideas for this library, please let us know!

It would be good idea to include a link so we know what dUtilLib already has ;)

the best place to see what currently is already included would probably be on the github page: https://github.com/BlackCoyote/dUtilLib

I suggest something that either checks or filter out symbols so an element only contains letters from 'a-z' and '0-9' and maybe _ as well for friendly use in flags or other things (such as the colorcode dUtilLib)

That is so dirt simple... I'll add it but once you see how easy it is you won't want to use the procedure script... you'll just want to do it directly...

Can even do it in a single line using a regex :P

Might still be worth adding just as a reference and example as to how it's used!

Yup ^

In addition to linked and then used utilities, sample code is a great thing to have available.

JUST ADD IT

also you should add those thingies that return a full list of colours and what not that you already had somewhere

This idea may sound a bit silly, but how about turning a text into a rainbow text?

10/10 best suggestion

WE NEED MORE IDEAS!

Recently I have experienced players done spelling mistakes and I want to correct their mistakes.
Examples with "/spawn" are: "/pawn" "/spawn%" "/spawn*" "/spa wn" "/spwatn"

A procedure that takes input as element-list and a element
This then should output an element, from the list, that is the closest element from the original.

There is already a tag that does this <[email protected]_all_partial[<element>]>

Code:

- define list 'li@spawn|home|town'
- narrate '<def[list].get[<def[list].find_all_partial[<context.command>].get[1]||1>]>'

I've put something together, but idk if I'm 100% satisfied with it. Thoughts?

find_all_partial is kind of lacking when it comes to this. I have a buncho code somewhere that simulates server.match_player[] but with regular lists, i think this is what he would find more useful. I'll be adding it in.
