Suggestion: Atmo:// Protocol

[freekboy31]

Sharing levels is fun, I think we should implement this feature maybe some other time around.

In former game site, there were two methods on how you can play a level: web and standalone.

Web method seems possible in few months... but the standalone one is worth researching, because of its ability to share links.

One of the features that came with standalone version is its ability to read "atmo://" protocol. Once the "atmo://.....etc..." level link is clicked, it redirects you straight to the level itself in standalone.

Based on this javascript file (search with Ctrl + F and type "// Play Standalone"), the atmo:// protocol is composed of several parts.

Code: Select all

atmo://standalone' + href + '&userId=' + $('#uid').val() +'&username=' + $('#uname').val() + '&authToken=' + token + '&fbUserId=' + $('#fbUserId').val() + '&fbToken=' + $('#fbToken').val();

That's all. It takes time to explain this one. Also, this is just a heads up to our current developers.

bumper to bumper, hi Nin, kroltan and Entity (a.k.a team Troposphir), I'm looking forward for your feedback.

I am kind of confused as to what exactly this does, so I will leave that to those who understand this. So, is this something you've worked on or that the team has been working on? I was sort of confused by the wording :/

It's a suggestion, that the feature is included in-game but not actually implemented yet.

So how does this help you link levels? Posting the link in an info sticker? Or am I missing something here?

When you post a link on this thread, for example, Play my level! <-- when you click this, it redirects you to the game itself with the level you are playing.

ooooohhhh gotcha. I thought about linking levels together *facepalm*

So did I, which is why I held off on posting in this thread until someone else had that cleared up.

But anyway, I think Kroltan is working on this with the level browser. I think this'll probably be possible before too terribly long. You'd have to ask him to know for sure though.

As soon as I get on the winter break (South America, so not so far in time), I'll be able to finish the level browser and the launcher. And yes, it will support the Atmosphir protocol.

Wow, just now saw this. This is a great idea

[freekboy31]

Thanks "project troposphir" devs
