Custom world entry does nothing.

You see the scripts that have the custom world feature, but if you enter the world you want to be in, it doesn't use the select world page on runescape. Infact, half of the scripts I use can't even use the world select screen to choose a world anymore. It has to timeout and click "play now" to enter a random world.

Try removing any favorite worlds you have selected.

when the script usually asks for a world its the server that actually loaded into smart, so server 80 or whatever, i dont think (havent looked) there is one to choose a specific world.

its the server that its getting all the data from.

this is only what i think it is, dont quote me on it.

I think Bob is mostly right.. The point is that if you choose world 6, it won't go to world 6 (unless world six is somehow the best world for you, which I don't see how it ever would be).

And it's not random, it's Jagex's doing. They point you to the 'best' world for your location, amount of players, etc.

I'm assuming most scripts will ask for the SMART server, in which case, no, it won't log in to the world you set it to. You have to set world info. for each player if you want them to log in to specific worlds:

// from TUser (SRL's players.scar)
WorldInfo: TVariantArray; // * [Members {Boolean}, World {Integer}, PVP {Boolean}]

// used like
Players[0].WorldInfo := [Players[0].Member, 152, False];
PVP should probably be removed since there are no PVP worlds, but it doesn't really matter right now.

Yes just to confirm what everyone is saying, it loads the server not the world. The reason for this is if you have multiple SMART's running, you use different servers. This allows the multi-logins (there are other ways but this is easiest).

I'm sure it could. I would have to look into it though as I'm not sure how the world switching works. I don't have time right now, but I'm sure it's not a difficult change.

Right now it detects the window that pops up as a warning for high risk worlds and switches worlds if it's found. Should be a fairly small alteration.

ive updated the worlds info and uploaded it, the high - risk wilderness worlds have pvp set to true because im hoping we can change them to the new pvp worlds if you do the detection. also a few worlds were removed/added by jagex and many worlds are switched from f2p/mem to the other.

i updated it today so right now its accurate maybe we should put the most recent date it was updated in the file itself so we know how up to date/outdated it really is.

If you have custom worlds, it will cause it to time out and click play now.

You mean favourite worlds? I'm not sure why that is, so I'd have to take a look a that as well. Feel free to look yourself if you have the knowledge. ;)

My guess is it works by having a picture of the world selection page without the favorite worlds used to guide the script. Having favorite worlds would make it look different than what is used. I don't know how the thing works though, Im just guessing.:p

It won't be a picture as that would be a HUGE bitmap, but you're on the right track. It probably just does some kind of color check in a certain area and that area changes when there are favourite worlds selected.

When I log on to rs right after a system update it puts me on world 6 because the world 6 server is here in southern california.

Well. The rest of my post was mostly right, so whatever.
