TicTacToe public game (fixed by me)

[rosc2112]

This is a version of Tic Tac Toe that is playable on channel. I did various fixes to it so that it actually works, draws the board correctly, etc. Thought some others might be interested. It does give me some ideas about how to do other boardgames for irc, so maybe eventually I'll have something more impressive than just a plain tictactoe game to offer

I haven't tested your fixes yet, but I am glad you did (it had many problems), I tried fixing it once, but it was too messed up for me. Thanks, I'll tell you what I think after I have some time to test it.

hey rosc

ive just tried this mate and it dosent seem to be working.
game starts fine and i type a square number IE .tic 5
the board then rewrites but no x or o in square 5 and another player can still choose square 5 with no "square is already occupied" message, but his x or o dosent appear either.
anyway i can fix this?
cheers mate.

It works on my copy, are you using the one posted in the url above? The original version in the tcl archive has the problems you mentioned.. I'll upload an update in any case, I don't think I made many changes between versions, except a little more formatting. Might also be a bug in the irc client with the color codes, I've noticed some clients act weird when certain characters appear right after a color code.. Lemme know if the new copy from the url above still has problems.

cheers mate.
much appreciated

[rosc2112]

Fixed.. In my overzealous code-consolidation I renamed a var, and that's what broke the script

best regards
