Considering we can now just invoke the command line parser so it's like you typed the text into it... we are probably not going to keep the billion of tell memlocs that aren't really necessary now.
IE, instead of sending a tell with Hooks->SendTellEx( "name", "message" ); you can use Hooks->InvokeChatCommand( "/t name, message" );

Woot, I was waiting for that option. It opens up lots of options for plugins. My personal one will be one that allows you to Zoom in to a target by changing Field of View.

To keep from breaking some older plugins, wouldn't it make sense to keep Hooks->SendTellEx( "name", "message" );, which would then just make an internal call to Hooks->InvokeChatCommand( "/t name, message" ); ?
That would keep the calls to the client simpler, and yet not break old apps as much...

This is not a flame. I'm just curious as to how that would be useful.  |

What effect do you think it will do with a persons ability to chat?

I was thinking more like for fun (like a sniper scope for my bow). I would get a better look at the situation. Not all plugins have to be useful.

My opinion is that the majority of plugins are going to break. Dont waste time on backwards compatability. Just get it working the best that it can.

Yes, since everything is broken anyway there's no real point in keeping compatibility.
BTW, the /render fov option does not actually function as far as I know (in TD). AC sure looks weird at FOVs greater than 360 though (from back when I had the FOV memloc in pre-TD AC).
