Autojoin the galaxychannel in Com Unit

Although the title really says it all, I'll explain it:

The GC (or MoC?) can add a galchannel (+ password if neccessary) in the politics screen. Then when opening your com unit and connecting to netgamers, it will automatically join the set galchannel. Easy to use and great for new players who don't understand IRC.

I have no idea if this is hard to code though...

Discuss!

Re: Autojoin the galaxychannel in Com Unit

Shouldn't be that difficult, they now join the #XX:XX chans automagically don't they?

Things would be simpler if #XX:XX channames couldnt be registered by private persons, but were so by planetarion itself. This way the galchan was always secure for those who joins this and that gal.

If you didn't notice Allfather, NetGamers != Planetarion. Whilst it is a good idea, it would require a separate channel service bot to control gal chans. NetGamers wouldn't be happy if 100+ chans were reserved for PA, as there are several other games resident on NG that use X:Y co-ords.

It's just an extra applet parameter for the java IRC client.

If the GC can set the channel and password for the galaxy in some area of the politics page then it should be trivial.

You're saying it's extremely easy to code? Then I would say the idea is accepted

Then make them #pa.1.1 #pa.1.2 etc.
And i know netgamers are not a part of pa.
