WAIT!

Why can't we make a simple applescript app that does this? When started, this AS app will run on a continuous loop every fraction of a second. What it will do is read a text file named "varname". If the text file has anything but "Done" or "Shut off" in it, it will activate some code that I will personally put in. After it accesses that code, it will save a variable from that code into a text file named "vardata". If the "varname" file says "Done" than it will continue the loop but do nothing. If it says "Shut off" than the applescript file will exit and shut off.

Plagiarism! Or, coincidence... one of those. Anyways, are we changing the name?

Actually, ours came first.

I never said that it didn't, I just said that we probally couldn't prove it and shut down their game:P

Also, we need to get ranked on google which might be a poblem against that game... :P

That sounds good. Although Applescript, although (I think) faster than GM, is not as fast as an compiled app, so if you could get a compiled app that does it all than that would be the best.

Thanks

Hmm. I'm not sure about speed, but I do know that I don't know how to do all of that in Xcode. Wait...   Xcode can have applescript in the regular apps but it will run just like a regular applescript app.

I'm not too good with applescript so I'm asking around. Apps not made yet.

Hey Mistron, is the Lw online data thing made? We could probably start some more on Lw before getting that As app.

I used to have a collection of applescripts that would do most of everything. I might PM them to U

I have them, though, I don't like having more than 1 As to do all the work. Maybe, we can rebuild Lw to the specifications of the As script Hendo is making. What do you think?

We already have a website at http://lostwind.redrasor.com/

I am planning on making a PSP (Player See Player) system very soon, however I will need a few things from you guys (mostly silver)

Silver: Once upon a time you had programmed a simple thing in which you had two games talk to eachother through textfiles and show two different people walking around. If you could upgrade that to v6 and send me it that would be apreciated.

Everyone Else: Support and good comments will be useful. But please brace yourself for redoing some stuff to make it fit with the PSP system.
