Need help with setting up an additional textbox

[Guest]

I need help with setting up an additional textbox to send different messages to. What do i need to do as far as hard coding it to the source.

I'm looking to send my quest an skill messages to this textbox on the frm.mirage

example: call playermsg2(index, "test", 1) and send it to

example: frmMirage.txtChat2
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What exactly is the point of creating a 2nd topic?

Yup :P

[Guest]

you guys must not get what I am asking.

As I said, what you are pointing out is not what I am looking for, and it tells me nothing.

My question is exactly the same… with the exception of the place
Making a 2nd chatbox...

its almost what he wants, i think hes saying it isnt the same because it sends ALL server messages not just quest and skill ones

If so, why would he want a new one? the server does that already :S

modglobal (server), also in clscommands

sub playermsg2(byval index as long, byval message as string, byval color as long)
    call senddatato(index, "Msg2" & sep_char & message & sep_char & color & sep_char & end_char)
end sub

and in modclienttcp i think, you need to ad something like

if casestring = "msg2" then
    frmMirage.txtChat2.txt = trim(parse(1))
end if

note this is pseudo code, true to finish it (not that hard)

**Isn't this modHandleData?**
_Doesn't this shows only 1 line of text? _if casestring = "msg2" then
      frmMirage.txtChat2.txt = frmMirage.txtChat2.txt + trim(parse(1))
End if

The only thing i'm not sure about if this will set a new rule.__

[unnown]

yeah like i said pseudocode :p

What command is to start a new line?

[unnown]

i don't know check the normal playermsg sub
(server side)

then see if you can find the call senddattato thing
and cope the "word" and try to find that in the client,
keep following the code until you get to where it actually alters the normal textbox
