OpenURL and High-score posting, and more...?

[BeyondtheTech]

I've been asked by my customers to implement a high-score board for Bubble Buster Advanced.

I was hoping to go one step further by customizing a URL that would include their high score...

Code: Select all

OpenURL("http://www.mywebsite.com/product/postscore.php?initials=JOE&score=123456");

While that code could be done, can you implement a feature that would download variables or a textfile from the internet?

Code: Select all

LoadNetVars("http://www.mywebsite.com/product/highscores.dat","highscoredata");

This would really open up possibilities!

Here's a new version of a really powerful program called MortScript:

It allows you to perform batch commands on the Pocket PC. I currently use it for rotating the screen on my HTC Universal when I run particular programs, but a couple of commands really intrigued me and inspired me to think that similar code could be implemented in Game Editor...

Code: Select all

Download "http://www.sto-helit.de/test.txt", "\Storage\text.txt"

I'm for this feature too.

Sharing highscores really adds a dimension to people playing the same game.

Hopefully, you'll be able to set this up soon..
