BlackSpectre Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Anyone know how to use the /getglobalsilent <CharacterName> command? For the life of me I can't figure it out! Information I've unearthed so far is that the command was created for Paragon Chat way back in 2015 (along with Get_Global_Name), with the intention to use it in conjunction with creating player notes (by using a player's global name I assume). When I use the command in game, it doesn't error out. So it appears to "function" but I can't see it do anything. Other commands like this that didn't error out but also didn't work, turned out to only work when a different, specific window was open. Maybe this works in the same way? But what window???

I didn't look closely when he brought this one up. I think it's either obsolete or a synonym for getglobalnamesilent, which definitely is. I should remove it from the cross reference list, the only place it appears. v3.20 Technical Guide (27p3)... 140 pages of complete, comprehensive and validated info on on the nuts and bolts!ALSO: GABB Bindfile · BadgeDRADIS · City of Zeroes · Teleport Guide all at www.Shenanigunner.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's either obsolete or a synonym for getglobalnamesilent, which definitely is. I should remove it from the cross reference list, the only place it appears. Neither. get_global_name_silent isn't a command and doesn't exist. get_global_silent does the same thing as get_global_name except it doesn't print the results to the chat window. So it's not useful as a manually typed slash command. It's used internally by the player note system to retrieve the global name when you add a note to a character the client doesn't already know the global for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSpectre Posted June 18, 2022 Author Share Posted June 18, 2022 Thanks guys! I've been so busy lately that I haven't have a chance to check back at the forums. The good news is, starting tomorrow, things are going to slow down. 🙂 OK. Crossing getglobalsilent off my list. That's actually a relief!
