Help with modding game

In my club penguin game if you insult someone or you say a swear word you get banned (until you click the green flag)

If I put:
If answer= (the swear word)
broadcast ban

would I get reported if someone downloads it?

Re: Help with modding game

Lol, I think that would be funny, but since people can see swear words in the script, I wouldn't do it.

Re: Help with modding game

I still don't think it's a good idea.

Re: Help with modding game

I just thought of something. It just might be possible to cover the swear words with a comment that says,"Warning: there is a swear word under here!"

Re: Help with modding game

Use lists?

Code:

[When Green Flap Pressed]
[Forever]
[][If <(CString contains SList)>
[][][Broadcast "Ban"]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]

CString = Chat String
SList = Swear List

If someone were to modify the code directly they'd see it, so if you're working with someone you should probably add it after you're done.  smile

I've tried to cover up code before with other scripts that don't seem to have anything but I always do "Clean Up" and lines everything up. So I'd like have a "Password" for a game then put a script that is used in the game and put it on top so it won't look suspicious.

Re: Help with modding game

I just read your Mesh part lol... With Mesh there is a Host and Client(s) so you could make a "server" in Scratch and when people send messages it will be sent from the Client and then to the Host then the Host scans the chat string then clears out any swear words then send that message back to all then Client(s) so only if you give out the "Server" then you still don't have much of a chance of getting banned, if you get BYOB 2.0, it has Mesh so you can play around with that, and also make blocks to cover up the swear words even more, with an even more less of a chance getting banned. I'm willing to help with ALL multiplayer games, so come by sometime and we can work something out!  smile

Re: Help with modding game

Yes, using BYOB to make blocks that have swear words in the code is a good idea. You could even name the block: Warning: there is a swear word in the code.

Re: Help with modding game

But, as I said in my other post, you have a Host and client(s), just make it so when they send a message, it will go to the Host the broadcast it out to the client(s). Look at my Chat project I made in BYOB, you will see, that in the Chat project it sends the message you typed and broadcasts it, the Host project it receives the message then sends it out, so you could change that so when it receives the message it will filter the message then send it, and then only you will see the swear words unless you give out the Host for others to change and use, but to completely cover up the swear words, you can make a .exe so the code can't be seen.  smile
