Before I forget -again- ...

Terra made a very nice chat function that will replace the missing archiver functionality. It's already running, but needs an introduction. You can check it ingame by typing 'help' or '?' in the shout channel.

Terra, do the honours?

Oh, sorry. Missed this thread. But yesm functions is as follows:

f_file ? - to list the functions.

f_file [show] [archive/vault] - this will list your vault or archive vault.

f_file [store] [filename] - this will put a character from the servervault to the archivevault.

f_file [restore] [filename] - Same as the store function but from the archive to the server vault.

f_file [rename] [filename] [new filename] - This will rename a bic-file in the archive vault, no extension or path needs to be included in the new filename, special characters are stripped and max length is 16 letters.

Notes:

*The parameter that takes a "filename" also accepts a number from previously generated lists from the "show" function.

*Rename only works on files in the archive folder.

*Vault is the vault that you see and those character that you can play, archive is the place where characters goes to rest that you don't want cluttering your character list.

*Cannot archive the character you're currently logged in with.

*Cannot overwrite or delete files.

*Please report any bugs you notice if any!

Does this mean we can safely archive old versions of PCs, rename them and then use the old name on the rebuilt one?

Yep, should work! Someone could try that though, I don't think we did.

I wuz just messing about in Ultrinnan since I'm all alone, not even the NPC barkeep to chat with. (I suppose I should hunt at some point.. :/ Meh!)

I made 103 characters :X

My only complaint is archive/vault say the same thing to me as a secondary params
