Haha. No problem. It just looked a bit weird with every other sentence in bold, italics or underlined. Nothing to worry about though.

should the spelling of the period be implemented? it could very well be that it WAS by instead of bij, though i doubt it.

These improvements is great Pieter!

I have 3-4 more ideas for Build Mod can I post it here or that open new topic?

Best to start a new thread. If discussions go off-topic, even if the new discussion is interesting, it still makes it confusing and hard-to-find.
I applied above changes to my game now. Not tested though. Should work, I think.

You added the model assignment, I see. I was actually messing around with that yesterday. I've written a function to give models to the player and I also did some inventarizing of the officer uniforms we already have and where they should be assigned. I put it all in an Excel file that I will show you when I get back home (I'm at school right now). In any case: work is being done on that, the code is already written. It just needs to be finished and tested.

Now I restored all posts from this topic. This restoring way is very STUPID.
Why WEBMASTERS can't simple copy all topic from temporal forum to the this forum?!! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />

Thanks for reposting. I agree that it's really annoying that we can't just copy the posts. Trust me: If we could have, we would have. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
