Linked Server with Website

[Jcy]

Hello! I wanted to have some enlightment on this subject. I wanted to make users that register on my site, to be registered in-game with the same info, and to enable a shop that automatically changes the server's database like  items levels or even membership. I can always edit the database using Navicat or MySQL but how to do it automatically? I've seen posts similar to this but nothing that actually helped explain.Thanks :)))))

It's not really possible at this time.... your best bet is to wait for B5 and beyond where we will expand out an official API to communicate with the server.

Alright, so it will be possible? And about memberships, that might sound silly.. but let's say you pay for member, the site unlocks a certain page, could the engine check if that page is unlocked or not? Or something similar lol that makes communication. Or as u said gotta wait also?

When they get the membership the server would set a player switch to true.. and set it to false when the membership expires.

 

In game all you would need are events to check that switch and then it could show/hide stuff based on its value. Pretty simple.

 

(And of course, all of this can get insanely more robust and complex once the source code is available)

That actually 'sounds' so much simpler is it possible at this time or when source is out?

 

Edit: Just realised you still need to make communication with the server, maybe make some sort of shop in-game if possible?
