Hi Zeb,
This error above - does this 'just' exist for the GetSoundSet or do we need to do these steps for all methods contained within this plugin?
I've been going through the dialog.tlk file, and have found some good things that I could replace my boot message with.
"The Dark River will take you!!" - (or something to that effect) 86044
If I understand correctly, the BootPCWithMsg method, should be able to display this on the players screen after a boot? |

It will show up if they connected through the Game Room and not just via a +connect command-line option (like the server has gone down message you get).
I use 3550 which is "Goodbye and good luck"  |

I just developed an ANTI_HACK system for my server, so I was actually looking for some sort of negative message to send to people who are attempting to hack their abiltiy scores.
At the minute, its just a plain old BootPC done on the player, and then it moves their character file to the hacked character vault for review.
I just thought it would be funny if there was some sort of dialog option which kicked them off, and let them know its was due to their hacking attempts.
I think there are some like
"Your character has illegal spells" or
"Character was not accepted" |

It definitely happens for GETPCPORT as well. I haven't tested the other methods, but it's good practice to delete them anyway, as it avoids leaving unneeded variables lying around.

One of acaos' plugins - I forget which, but I assume funcs - gives the BootPCWithMessage function, allowing you to send any message in the tlk.

This function has been copied to NWNX Funcs from NWNX Functions, so it exists in both.
