Because some of you ask often...


Replex has quit AC and I will be taking over development of his Spies plugin.


Unfortunately, I'm just beginning a very demanding semester (6 classes, 4 with labs) and I've just skimmed through the code, so I'm not sure how soon I'm going to have a fully functional release out. I will be actively working on it, though.


The good news is that it's in a semi-usable state.


I am also going to be removing the PK target detection code, as I feel it's an exploit. (This code spammed the window if someone has you targeted and is casted a war or vuln.)

OMG.. YOU TOOK THE MAIN FUNCTIONALITY OUT OF ANOTHER PLUGIN AND CUSTOMIZED IT FOR YOUR OWN NEEDS!!!!!!


Oh sorry.. just thought I'd chime in before everyone else did. I don't use, nor will I ever since it doesn't have any features I need, Spies.

how the heck is that an exploit??


I was looking forward to this cause I get ganked allot. Very annoying to get slapped in the back with some unknown war spell.

Wow, great news Paraduck, and an excellent decision on removing war detect. I'm currently using the previous version of Spies and enjoy all of the features, but I'm still having to run a different buff plugin. I'm just hoping to get everything into one plugin, as only running 1 thing seems to cut down on the majority of my lag.


Anyway, thanks.

In my opinion, every plugin is an exploit. They are offer advantages over the players who simply use their fingers or eyes to do things every plugin does. But I guess Paraduck's more of a paradox when it comes to deciding what is or isn't exploitatious programming for plugins that are all offer exploits for every player that uses them ...

Funny story... may name was originally going to be Paradox, but someone took it.
