Title: Use I.E. Configuration
Post by Decept on 11/12/03 at 06:43:41

well pretty simple add a option to use I.E. Configurations to log into nm this way for those who have to a proxy or what ever it would just use what ever settings you are using for I.E.

the only problem this would cause is ip baning

a simple salution is if a staff ban some one it would tell the client to send the information to the server i.e. true ip adress, computer hardware id something simple

also add in game

/ip (shows your ip adress)

If you mean allow nightmist to use your http proxy, this is generally a bad idea. Http proxies are not designed for this, and as a result usually go very slow. Often they time out after 10, 15, 30 minutes depending on how they're set, so you would be booted a lot. They're not designed for asynchronous connections.
