Skins List Text File.
« on: June 16, 2017, 01:59:57 PM »
Is it possible to include a function in the hanger that will inventory your skins folder, then drop a text file in the settings folder itemizing up to date skins, out of date skins, and missing skins as of the last skins update batch for auto download?

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

*shouldn't* require more than a few lines of code to /print or /post to a .txt a list of what is in a folder with an /if previous item in list is not present then print red text. It could also pull up the data from the files as to when they were downloaded.

As far as how old they are from when they were initially added would require some record of such in the server database and would take more work.

Missing or out of date skins show up as red.

Aye, but within a generated text file as bustr was requesting.
