As I can tell right now, you can only go to 20 on the spacing (to move your output from the left side of your page). It'd be neat to be able to set it higher so you could set up miniwindows on your left side of the screen as well as the right side (ala wow).

So you'd have like:


----------------------------
| hp  |              | map |
| g1  |              |     |
| g2  |              |     |
| g3  |              |     |
| g4  |              |     |
| g5  | Actual game  |     |
|     |              |stats|
|chat |              |misc |
|     |              |info |
----------------------------
input
----------------------------

As of right now, you can just put stuff to the right. Just a suggestion.

TextRectangle

The documentation for the TextRectangle script function is available online. It is also in the MUSHclient help file.

TextRectangle (155, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0x000000, 0, 0x000000, 0)

Example (with my own two plugins): http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/1741/leftside.png

Look up the TextRectangle function, it does pretty much exactly what you're asking for.

EDIT: Ouch, ninja'd.

Ninja indeed ;)

That is a great looking set-up there Twisol. Nick, I wasn't aware that Mush Client could do such things. Makes a basic text mud look a lot more interesting for the newer generation mmo players. Maybe my Girlfriend would stop playing LotRO and play a mud I frequent if I could get it like that =)

Time to do some more reading =)

*grin* Dusty (from Achaea) came up with the set of images, Trevize (from Achaea) [1] scripted the two plugins originally, and now I'm officially maintaining them. The only visible change I made was the percentages on the gauges, everything else was just design/structure. So applaud them, not me! ;D

The images themselves, by the way, were likely adapted from the official Nexus client supplied by Iron Realms for Achaea.

[1] The Trevize on these forums is a different person, please don't confuse the two.
