In the following thread:

you refer to a way to "shut down the ban system."

How exactly do you shut the ban system down? We don't need the ban ability that is built into smartfox, but we get the following error quite ...

<StripCharacters><![CDATA[,.;:_!$%&/#*-+]]></StripCharacters>

Yes - that's what I was inspired by glad you got it sorted out.

And no - I was definitely not paid to post that!

I do not have the space character in the <stripCharacters> yet it seems to be included. I'm on SFS 1.5.5 and not 1.5.8c but I didn't see anything mentioned in the release notes.

Is there a way to exclude it or will I need to write my own filtering function into my extension?

Thanks!

I would like to take a moment to say that I have been nothing but THRILLED with the service provided by the Smartfox Team.

Both before and after purchasing a license they have been extremely helpful. Responses are unbelievably prompt and accurate.

Keep up the great work!

Thanks for the prompt response!

one step closer ...

the "setPrivateChatUserID" function takes an array to 'initialize' the chatbox component, and I am able to sneak messages in that way - but unfortunately that requires using private chat and I'm trying to do this for public chat

anyhow if there was just some way to do the same ...

also - even if I maniuplate chatbox_mc.chatTextArea.text - as soon as the next message comes in, it gets wiped. if the client side message queue were read-write instead of just read, maybe i could sneak the messages in there?

Hello -
I've written a server side extension to keep track of the chat history by intercepting public messages. I am at the point now where I can receive the text in the flash client using a listener for onExtensionResponse. my question is - how do I add the lines of chat to the chatbox_mc? I know ...

All of the game rooms in this particular zone are acting that way, yeah.

Do they have to be temporary rooms as well?

Hello -
I'm running SFS 1.5.5 and we have game rooms that aren't auto-deleting once they're empty. I know it's a game room since it says "game:true" in the admin tool.

Has anyone run into this? Thanks

just an fyi

i think it has to be

This is very useful. Thanks!

I this appears to be the case, but i wanted to make sure - if you're using a game room, does room.getAllUsers() automatically sort them by playerIndex?

If you pass an object that is not a user to _server.sendResponse, it gives you an error like "couldnt find functiong getChannel". Took me a while to figure out what was going on since I couldn't find any reference to getChannel in my code.
