TriviaBot

13 - MyQuestions

We need to create a system who could integrate Question files from a folder.
this is related the MyQuestions plugin.

all Question packs from MyQuestions should be in /Triviabot/MyQuestions
so Triviabot needs to load all Question Packs in that folder if the Users has set true on the option in the Triviabot Menu called "MyQuestions Installed".

This is a Critical issue please integrate it in to the 2.7 version.

Good work :D

    However, we still cannot edit the list programatically, the user will still need to copy and paste into these files (tmq_questionlist.lua) manually.

    We can easily load a default list of files (we do this in 2.4.4) without LUA throwing a fit. However if we give it one file, the user will have to manually manage that file.

    Comes down to three things, write a base framework for Triviabot (idea is for the lulz, frameworks are not for casual coding, not that it's difficult, but it starts to become a job, not a hobby), or write the features of MyQuestions into TriviaBot, or include instructions in MyQuestions on how to manually export the file lists (and still NONE of these will allow our editors access to people's lists).


    That or get Blizzard to give us file access.

    LUA with WoW doesn't allow for folder scanning, nor dynamic file includes.
