Deva Developement idea

[Gibbit]

jds's sysop topic just gave me an idea!

 

An official deva developelement test zone or maybe just arena, it would be a zone/arena with deva's setts and a bot to add maps and lvz's, the bot could automattically reload the original setts every 24 hours, and only people with L2+ access to the bot can do this (people that deva staff allow to use it).

 

people would have there idea's backed up on there comp if its good then they can give it to Xdoom or TM

plosable, but sketchy... who would all have access? because you'd be able to know the zone settings if you were in such a position (nothing worse than settings being leaked)

 

 

edit: just read your post in that thread of mine password idea is a good thing, but , another arena / zone still makes for a middle man getting all sets / gfx to xdoom

 

i guess i just wanted to weed out the middle man and just be able to do it on whim

But we do sort of have a 'test zone'... which would be Deva's ASSS zone. It's not like the settings change, so you needn't be afraid of ASSS.

We could put it to good use, since no one is able to develop it atm.

[JDS]

eh didnt know about that zone , supose it would be an idea

[Gibbit]

only trusted active players and staff would have access, I suppose that should help prevent a settings leak.

[Hakaku]

I don't trust myself, end of discussion!

[Gibbit]

sure you do

Wait what?

 

Make yourself clear, I do not understand.

 

 

What would this magic dev zone have that Deva doesn't have?

[PaRa$iTe]

Or you could have someone who doesn't have access BUT has played Deva alot guess all the values for zone settings.

Wouldn't be the original - so basically, risk free, since anyone could've done them - but would be close enough for developers.

It should work - at least it did for me in RS.

it would enable common players to be able to test there dev ideas to perfect them before bothering a sysop with them.

 

personally I think it would be cool but that it can be done with out but its one way to answer jds's issue.

im probly w/ sos on this one rather stick to my usual hanging in one zone :\

[Gibbit]

I think theres a way to give someone sysop powers limited to one arena.

but like I say I THINK I'm not sure at all.

 

also, your just being picky its no trouble to just drop into a test zone for a couple minutes to test your work then go back to deva.....

[Hakaku]

double client ftw

 

(and yes it's possible to assign limited powers to an arena)

[JDS]

big zones like tw, metalgear , eg have there own 'private test zones'

 

what in the world would a zone who cant even hold a 3 pop average want with a 2nd zone to suck its players into

suck its pop into? good joke.........

 

I'm sure only a few people would bother with it to test their stuff..

 

and like I said it could bwe a password protected zone, but I'm more for the dev arena with sysop powers limited to that arena, or a dev bot for that one arena.

close devastation! booo!
