Localized tables autoload
Why they aren't just added to official server entries in servers.txt, instead of being tied to ST? That way they would be more configurable and kRO ones will not be used with kRO ST (which is used for many private servers) by default.

Re: Localized tables autoload
thats fine with me
One ST0 to rule them all? One PE viewer to find them!
One ST_kRO to bring them all and in the darkness bind them...

Re: Localized tables autoload
Current sources of table dirs:
1. --tables list OR default "tables" is not specified
2. all table dirs get a copy with named ST suffix (messing with any configuration that uses kRO ST or has suitable dirs in list specified with --tables)
3. addTableFolders from servers.txt (no way to unset these with --tables)
My opinion:
* when there is --tables, do not add anything from ST/servers.txt (maybe add some "base tables" option for redefining only one dir and getting everything)
* implement [2] with [3] for official servers' entries in servers.txt

Because these files are different for different servers.EternalHarvest wrote:Why there is no monsters, npcs in trunk tables?

Re: Localized tables autoload
So there isn't any "default" tablepack anymore?
There is no skillnametable too, but statusnametable is here, should it be removed?

Re: Localized tables autoload
Nope, as we want to encourage people to update kore's monsters.txt, npcs.txt and etc. for their specific official server.EternalHarvest wrote:So there isn't any "default" tablepack anymore?
Making them use the right tables is the first step in that process.
Also, i think we should keep the server specific tables separated from the non-server specific ones.
statusnametable is also server specific. So yea, it should be moved to the folders that contain the server specific files.EternalHarvest wrote:There is no skillnametable too, but statusnametable is here, should it be removed?

Re: Localized tables autoload
About Server and Non Server specific tables.
There is One big problem in Current SVN.
the Private Server support.
Also I suggest:
1) Disable Server Specific Auto loading of tables IF there is option to load custom tables in servers.txt
2) Disable Server Specific Auto loading of tables IF more then one folder set by cmd option "--tables"
3) Enable Server Specific Auto loading only if above rules return False.

Re: Localized tables autoload
We need to sort out issues with tables directories and make the stable branch already.
