Windows XML into LUA?

[Protegy]

Is it possible to make the LUA files into XML? If so what would this mean for the server? Would it be beneficial?

 

[Bogart]

maybe like mods ?

 

[Protegy]

I dunno, that's why I'm asking lol, maybe you can be a bit more specific?

Make them into mod files. Why do you want them in XML?

trolo

<function name="onUse" param1="cid" param2="item">
<doCreatureAddHealth cid="cid" health="100"/>
<doRemoveItem uid="item"/>
</function>

Oh yea.

Anyway, I've also never seen any useful part of the invented "mods" thingy.
If you can't even edit something without colored stuff (everything orange?) it's so annoying. And the files are so huge.

Right, it's better to write everything in LUA.

The big advantage of having all custom scripts in mods is that its extremely easy to upgrade distro to newer versions.

All you have to do is to place the map and mods folder into latest distro and it will run perfect.

This way, you can easily be among the first ones on etc otservlist when a new client version comes out. Giving your OT server a very high popularity because you are early out.

Putting stuff into the data folder/editing some xml files isn't hard as well..
You are probably able to copy-paste the whole datapack.

And still, you see any 9.1 servers around? I don't. Mainly because most people don't know about a 9.1 ip changer. Even 8.7 is not known by everyone.
