I believe he did but I'm not quite sure how to implement his into Visual Studio, nor would I be fond of looking through the coding and deciphering what does what before taking it apart and reassembling it to fulfill the tasks I want it to complete.
Don't get me wrong
viewtopic.php?f=609&t=144946 it's a really good program, but I want to try to expand it a bit and perhaps add a bit of flavour to the design of it along with action compatibility to reduce the workload for moderators. Mind you the action compatibility would be limited as it'd require EVERY role that it tracks to be programmed in what it does. Since a lot of us make up unique roles, that just wouldn't be possible.
I'm going to be looking at a mess by the time I'm done with a presentable copy of the program but I'll do my best to keep the code nice and tidy for anyone who wishes access to it later on and I'll also try to include comments in the code itself for those who cannot figure out what a line of code is doing to the program.
But there is a problem that I will be running into if I do not get some assistance with (wont be needing help now, but before it's released I'll need some help) is to be able to open and save data onto the computer so that way when someone uses the program it will not restart from scratch every single time it is opened up. That will be the biggest challenge of the entire thing from my point of view at the moment.
Updates on the program I'll try to provide every week with what's going on and asking for help if I am stuck with something. For those who haven't used it but are aware of programming languages it mostly uses C and C++ coding, although others are able if you download an add-on to upgrade it.
Although I do not want to sound rude when I say this, but if statements like:
"Dim Counter As Integer"
"If Counter > Total Then
MsgBox("Player " & Player & " has been lynched.")
End If"
^ If those two functions look completely alien to you and you have no clue what it means, then I ask that you do not waste my time when I ask for help with programming this. I do not mind helping other beginners out with learning to program, but don't waste my time with do this or do that if you can't grasp how hard it is to program very simplistic programs. I'll be putting my time into this and making sure it runes smoothly with very few bugs and/or crash errors. So if your message to me starts off with "Add x amount of roles to your program" I am literally going to close the message and ignore it. With the time frame I'm setting for myself at this moment, I'll be lucky to have what I want in it by the time I need it to be operational.
Sorry if the above offends anyone, I don't mean to sound like an ass, but I have myself under a pretty strict timeline to get a functional version of this out and it's less than 6 weeks away.
