Lange, could you add a simple matchmaking system? As in, a player can use !add and choose a quickplay option to join the first arena that has only 1 player in it. This will allow people to pair up easily with random partners if many people are connected and remove some unnecessary manual labour (even if it's not very hard work to look for a partner manually).

Add me on steam and I'll take a look if you don't mind giving me access: http://steamcommunity.com/id/langeh

Its already in the plugin, just type "!first" to be taken to the quickest available arena (if no fast arenas are found it will just display the menu). Though be warned right now it is buggy in that if you are currently in an arena when you do it, it will not function as intended. It only works if you are not currently in an arena.

Could you have an update including it in the !mgemod/!add menu? It'd be most welcome, my players don't know of that command.

The purpose of !first is to bypass the menu. I will not be adding it.

I discovered a few spots in teh WebUI that prevented the site from working. I will post the changes I had to make below in order to get it to work with our setup. Based on what the changes are, I suspect that everyone would have to make the same changes in order to get things going.

Edited mgeapi/object.php Changed line 37:
From: $conn = mysql_connect(($this->host.":".$this->mysql_port), $this->mysql_user, $this->mysql_pass);
To: $conn = mysql_connect(($this->mysql_host.":".$this->mysql_port), $this->mysql_user, $this->mysql_pass);

Edited dynamic.php Changed lines 549,600,740,785,828,994:
Changed the variable From: $mysql_server
To: $mysql_host

I hope this helps others.

Hmm, my WebUI has worked properly since I installed it a couple days ago, although it takes a few minutes to load a player's profile for some reason. Other than that the recent duels and players list functions seem to work. I'm just using NFO's webhosting and the built-in database function they provide. Should I still make the changes anyway?

[jameless]

The WebUI would work perfectly if the database is on the same server as the website. Because when it couldn't find the value specified by the variable it would default to localhost. So if you ever move your database to a remote location you will want to make the changes. But if they are on the same server it's a moot point. In any case I believe Lange plans to merge the changes into the WebUI so new downloads should contain the proper code.

[Lange]

Yeah if you run the WebUI off the same server as the MySQL database, then the changes aren't necessary.

Jameless' changes have been committed to the repository, and the downloadable .zip will be updated later tonight after I'm back from class.

Sounds good. Aside from the things I mentioned previously, MGE 1.0.3 + WebUI seems to be working great and players are enjoying it (even more than 0.0.5 I suppose, which I was running until I stumbled upon your repositories as I had no idea there were newer versions). I still need to get my SOAP server going, but I'm glad you are keeping these great mods maintained. Thanks!

1.0.4 released. OP has been updated with changelog.
