[JASS] Basic Jass Chat System

[Kixer]

Ok the following is a Jass Chat system i designed...
The demo map isn’t completely finished but it still works...

The Jass is in the Chat Filter trigger in the demo map.

The basic use of this system is filtering. It blocks out curses ( defined by the user ) and colours player names and compliments ( also defined by the user ). The system is easy to edit and relativly fast ( i think ). It is AI friendly ( the demo map is a spam flame war between AI).

I'll have the demo done soon. It will contain the Chat filter, AI example, guide to implementation and credits ( atm it’s to Shadow1500 for the hiding chat tut on wc3campaigns.net)

The reason this is in the JASS section and not resource is because it is all about the script and how i can improve it? and advice is appreciated as this is my first JASS script.

Edit: Finished the demo map updated it here and in the maps folder
Edit: Updated to version 1.2. Added Changelog

Well, ofcourse u can ask for reputation,
But this is not like the helper/wc3campaigns their forums.
Once finished the map, you can post it by the maps until the spell section is ready.
Seems a decent chat system and I'll be watching for it.

Done updated here and in the maps section

This is an outstanding chat filter system. The code is well laid out and thoroughly documented. The included Read Me contains detailed, easy to follow installation instructions that even non JASS users should be able to follow.

I just checked your curse words.
U added dota in it.. NICE ONE !

 

[Kixer]

How could i not ?

 

[Kitabatake]

nice AI and colour stuff, but I see no use of that censcore funktion in games, because in the end, any words can be said a bit differently to give the message to another player. (And if all curse words have been banned, that is even worse, I once played a game with all known curse words banned and when I asked for wood in finnish, the system automatically replaced "wood" with #@%!)

Well that's just my opinion, I would never censcore my games or prevent the players from expressing themselves.

 

[Kixer]

well there is no real way to block out curses? the system is easily fooled but it is a deterant. If you have to change the words its that little bit more effort that you have to put in...

The main function of this filter is the command hidding and colouring. Many people may use this kind of filter ( i think ) just to block out the basics?

lol, i put about 400 words in the filter you made in my map basically blocks out everything, lol.

Nice, anyway it is possible to only hide chat messages that start with a -? I don't know if this is hard or if its just editing a little but if any can thatd be great.
