Im going to put down a few suggestions which (IMO) will help the server admin control the game.
1) being able to ban IP's
2) playing the game from the server window
3) a toggle button to show logs (On and Off, but logs should still be recorded, although not visable)
4) to be able to use commands from the server window, which are used throughout the game.
5) to be able to add custom commands to Qnet (teleporting, banning, map editing, and other random commands)
6) Saving the game. If QuestNet is able to read the changes players have made to the game (I.E. creating rooms, and the character state), then before the server closes, the game could either be saved automatically (to a seperate file, incase u need to restore the old file) or by having a save option.
so far this is all i can come up with lol. ill post more later.

I've answered all of these except for 6 in the other thread. And a save facility is already on the "to do" list :)

custom commands
Gautier UK posted 26-04-2003 01:02 BST
The ability to create a character/account. the character is saved, and you can log into that character/account through the Quest client. Also, add the ability to Delete characters aswel.

Already possible, just have to right the script. You can have accounts that are saved as well as anything else, you can have a fully persistent world as long as you can keep the server up, questnet works perfectly in that aspect. Once it crashes though... Don't know if questnet supports writing to the error log through script commands, but if it does, you could easily have account information(id, password, etc.) all stored in in game variables as well as written to a text file on your computer. With a good immortal command system and a whole lot of copy'n'pasting you could have a whole games worth of accounts back up in a decent amount of time.
eh, I'm rambling... blah blah blah.

This is a questnet forum, I was posting information about questnet and that one(probably most) of your suggestions is already possible.
