Question about (case) in coding NPCDialog!

While his response was worded a bit rude, he's kinda right. To do anything properly with a server you will NEED to learn some basic programming and computer skills.

What korv was saying is correct, you are running the wrong exe files. There are two folders, one for debug, one for the actual compiled version.

Personally I'd just use the debug version for your server until it's 'finished'. As such just push f6 to debug/run it and then log in and test.

Once you've made all your changes and got the server done you can worry about using the actual compiled .exe files. He may disagree with me here, it just seems like the simplest/fastest solution when still designing the server basics and provides the highest level of error reporting.

What if it's his first time to use it? You can't expect him to know everything. What if I give you some program and tell you to do something. You won't know it before you either research or ask about it.

Indeed, so they are under prepared and should not be attempt to perform source modifications before learning how to use the tools they will need to use in order to do that. Its once again a simple case of trying to do too much too fast without learning what needs to be learnt first.

And yes i expect them to know how to use the tools if they want to make modifications, everyone should expect that and it should be encouraged.

For programming you have to learn to walk before you attempt to run.
