Changing the Mail System to display your Game Name

This is the shortest source tutorial you will ever see, so I might add more to this until it becomes big.

I noticed that P2D's source didn't show your game name in the mail center, instead it said Potato Engine Mail Center.

Under frmMailMenu, in Private Sub Form_Load(), add at the bottom, before the End Sub:

Code:

    frmMailMenu.lblTitle.Caption = GAME_NAME & " Mail Center"

Compile, and open the Mail Center, it should say your game's name Mail Center!

Why doesn't it work?

If this did not work for you, do the following:


Make sure that in data.ini, the game name isn't Potato Engine , change that to your game name.
Make sure you restarted the server after changing the game name.

Dammit, I was so sure I added that xD

Haha .

I'm working on something short so I'll post it here too.

Here's my new one, it shows the Game name, the player name, and their level at the top of the screen (caption bar) when the click on the screen.

This part is Client-side:

Under Sub HandleKeyPresses of ModInput:

Code:

                Case "/hidecaption"
                    frmMirage.Caption = ""
                Case "/showcaption"
                    frmMirage.Caption = GAME_NAME & " - " & GetPlayerName(MyIndex) & " Level: " & GetPlayerLevel(MyIndex)

Under Sub SetPlayerLevel in ModDatabase:

Code:

    frmMirage.Caption = GAME_NAME & " - " & GetPlayerName(MyIndex) & " Level: " & GetPlayerLevel(MyIndex)

I made this because I was tired of clicking stats to see my stats.
What it does:

At the topic of the screen it will say
[Game_Name] " - " PlayerName " Level: " PlayerLevel.

I was going for something bigger but it didn't work.

But, why does it activate when you click pic screen? It won't auto update and it won't disappear...

Don't know what I was doing :/. Fixing.

EDIT: Fixed it, it's better now.

Yeah, alot better ^^
