That last one is probably a good method - it universally works. While the client could do some of the work, it (at least the C client) currently doesn't watch commands that much. It watches it to the extent to know if it is a command it should execute or a command that it should pass to the server, but beyond that, it just passes the data on to the server. Since the server currently says 'you ready abc', putting in a note that it has components doesn't really add much in the way of extra messages, and seems like a pretty easy solution. _______________________________________________ crossfire mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.metalforge.org/mailman/listinfo/crossfire
