It's also super annoying to type out the bbcode Everytime cause the button ain't here anymore. Worse on mobile haha

Yeah, what's up with that? WHY NO MORE SPOILER BUTTON?!

Yes it looked mildly like a hazard sign of some kind.

Understandable. I'm just so used to typing it it's no big deal for me, especially just for the spoiler.

Mods in SMF are installed using an XML file that injects the code into the scripts. The problem is SMF doesn't really like dealing with backwards compatibility so older mods typically don't work. I'm not even sure there is a spoiler mod with a button for 2.0.15 or I would have brought it up a while ago. :(

Not having backwards compatibility when your modifications are done via XML is pretty impressive, given that it's a pretty descriptive format...

Yeah but it's still limited to what search can find and compare too.

Forgive my ignorance on board programming language, but how come the function itself works, then? Is it not a matter of assigning a shortcut to it?

Because the mod Strat got to work doesn't offer a button in the first place.

Sadly most of them don't. Like I'm no SMF expert but it's pretty easy to grasp Post is where the stream of information is converted from bbcode to actual HTML and devise your own code using string.Replace. I mean you basically do something like this.
Code: [Select]
string.replace( /[spoiler]/gi, "<button type="button" onclick="{ if ( document.getElementById('Spoiler1').style.display == 'block' ) { document.getElementById('Spoiler1').style.display = 'none'; } else { document.getElementById('Spoiler1').style.display = 'block'; } }">Spoiler: Show/Hide</button><div id="Spoiler1" style="display: none;">" );
string.replace( /[\/spoiler]/gi, "</div>" );
In php & jquery. So it's really simple to write any text substitute you want to create new tags. But adding a button is done through GenericControls which calls context and runs through an array and like I'd have to read into it to figure out where the heck you set up the onclicks for them because I have no idea. And apparently no many people bother with figuring that out either. The easy way is to just look at a mod that already does it, but meh.

And testing a different mod would require running it on the actual boards. If it ain't broke...

Think I've got a better idea now.

Do we still need to use spoilers considering everyone's together again?

Well if it's not convenient for you feel free to don't use it until the party splits again or Anomander shows signs of life again, whichever happens first.

I'm scrolling through recent thread and

So it's been an interesting morning so far.

Why does the map have space on the top and bottom?

The A makes it the female version of Matador in portuguese.

Huh, I could only get it recognised as czech.

Either way, killer. What a pleasant name.

Yes, the irony that their better ability scores mean they could bluff better than Hugo if they had invested in the skill does not escape me.  :P

Hey, we're talking about infiltrating different organizations/sides in a war. Lying is expected, Hugo just pointed out that most of the party can't really do it.  :P

Let's roll to see if you'd find out this is a lie.
