[V-Man]

OK, I found the list I've been adding to!

1 - IP info and teamtalk embedded in demos
This will make it easier to collect information for blacklisting, as well as verification of official clan matches.

2 - Command which allows access to a specific line of console output

[SELECT ALL] Code:

alias "what_i_last_did" (conline "you")

2.5 - Other commands associated with "conline"

[SELECT ALL] Code:

whois (cn (at (conline "im hacking") 0)); alias "captured_IP" (at (skipconline "WHOIS" 2) 1)

Thousands of scripts are waiting to be made once access to console output is enabled. Scripts could be activated the moment a specific phrase comes onto the console (saving time and keybinds). Warnings could be automatically issued for racism or vulgarity, friends can be greeted without interrupting gameplay, one-line scripts can be shared more easily, cheat advertisers can be auto-banned... the list goes on.

3 - Command to write or add to config files in-game

[SELECT ALL] Code:

/makecfg "test.cfg" [alias starttime (millis); sleep ($test) [echo "test complete!"; echo (- (millis) $starttime)]]
/addcfg "test.cfg" [echo "version 0.1"]

Meta-scripting will be much easier with this; for example, a personal preferences cfg file crafted using a menu; or even a cfg file containing notes made during the session.

[SELECT ALL] Code:

/addcfg "gamenotes.cfg" [clan match with TyD tomorrow at high noon]

4 - Command to "undefine" aliases
(not just give them empty definitions) this would enable a script to clean up saved.cfg, for instance

5 - Command which allows access to contents of keybinds

[SELECT ALL] Code:

/echo (keybind "J")

returns "zoom 1; echo zooming; onrelease [zoom 0; echo zoom out]" (if that's what "J" is bound to)

6 - Variable ident to describe whether server is in mastermode

[SELECT ALL] Code:

/echo $privatemode

returns 0 if server is open.

7 - Variable ident to describe whether a given alias exists

[SELECT ALL] Code:

/echo (checkalias "testalias")

returns 0 if alias does not exist.

Oh yes! And
8 - Variables that describe how many frags and deaths you currently have.
