Hey Romolus, I really liked your summary regarding MP synchronization in the [http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Talk:setVariable setVariable discussion]. Would you perhaps be interested in turning that into a real article for the Wiki? If you're not familiar with the formatting or classification here, just put it into your sandbox, and I'll help you with the rest. Thanks --[[User:Kronzky|Kronzky]] 03:18, 6 August 2006 (CEST)


:Sorry for the late answer, somehow the notification didn't work for this page.
:The list for the setVariable command was quickly put together only to remind what mess MP scripting currently is and how it would benefit from having the suggested changes. In no way this was meant to be a complete or even properly researched list. I just wrote it down from what I remembered.
:For writing an article about the topic, I would have to do some proper research and I don't know if I got the time for that right now.
:Just a list or some short explanation without mentioning the various pitfalls and being exact on those wouldn't really help for such a topic as it's exactly those pitfalls and special cases that make or break a method for a certain situation.
:But if someone would start a properly researched topic like that, I'ld be willing to contribute and do some further testing myself, as that's basically what my free time would allow right now. I just don't have the time to do it all alone and only putting up a rough framework for the sake of it isn't my idea of a quality contribution to a Wiki like this. --[[User:Romolus|rom]] 14:26, 10 August 2006 (CEST)
::Ahhh, that's too bad... You really seem to know your stuff ''and'' are capable of explaining it in a very clear and concise way (and that combination is pretty rare...)
::But when considering whether to write an article here or not, keep in mind that this ''is'' a Wiki. ;) While it is important for the stuff that's posted to be ''right'', it doesn't neccessarily have to be ''complete''. Your summary would make a perfect [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Stub Stub], for other people (or you, at a later time) to expand upon. That's how nearly all the content here is created. Somebody starts with just a few paragraphs, and then it will grow over time.
::If we all waited until we have the time to write the perfect article, I doubt anything would ever appear here...;) But that's the advantage of a Wiki: mistakes will get corrected, and gaps will be filled (as long as there is something to start out with...) --[[User:Kronzky|Kronzky]] 19:00, 10 August 2006 (CEST)
