| Hi, Based on the other post "More organised system for module tweaks" I have an idea. If you press "Syncronise modules" in BlitzMax, a window opens with username and password. If you enter the details, a new window opens: [MODULE CATEGORIES] [official] 1. Official BR modules [community] 2. BotBuilders additions 3. Halo's tweaks 4. Antony's modules etc... The numbers are actually checkboxes, the state is remembered. Blitz research checkbox is on by default. There is an option to scroll down/up or filter by name. You can also filter by category. On the website, everyone is then able to keep a list of their own modules. Basicly, you subscribe to a member. Imagine a user creating a category: Module category name: BotBuilder's lab Category 1: OpenGL 3D (Dropdown menu) Category 2: Collision detection And then you can upload multiple modules. The version number, description, etc is parsed from the uploaded filename (BlitzMax has special stuff for this purpose...) Module name: blah Module description: blah Date: blah |

| The way jEdit works with regards it's "plugin" adding/updating is nice, I think. You have a choice - show new ones that you don't have / look for updates to your current ones. Then you can select which you'd like to install (a list of checkable items, with full descriptions) and download them. All quite seemless, and incredibly easy to use. :-) |
