After a conversation with EvilMike on #jdc, I decided to post this topic. It's mostly a compaign to get more active programmers since JJ2 could use a few more utilities.

Unreleased/Unfinished Programs

Console: Probably Overlord's most useful program he's ever made, and yet there isn't a sign of it being released any time soon. It has a wide variety of features that can be used by a server and a few things I'm particularly interested in, including idle kicking and random levels.

Chatlog for XP: Link might have been released this program already had he found a better method for recording chat in JJ2. If you have any ideas, it would be highly appreciated.

Episode Maker: So Zapper and others can stop complaining once and for all. (I'm indifferent otherwise, so just let Violet do his work.)

JJ2 Bot: Personally I'm not expecting much from any such project, but JJ2 would truly benefit if someone succeeded. The bots will probably have to be given some extra advantages because of AI issues.

Programs Never Made

A Fake Health Solution: JJ2 is long overdue for a program that tries to offer a solution for fake health. I have some idea of how it could work, like a client will get updated health according to what the server sees. Clients wouldn't need to run this program, but it would be in their best interest. In #jj2, it was mentioned that a server would have to run a program as well, although I don't see as too much of a program. There was another suggestion for a fix in #jj2, but I wouldn't know exactly how it works. (Sorry for not giving credits to those who gave suggestions.)

A Stats Program: Assuming Console doesn't do this already, it would be nice if at least one program has this capability. It has the same problems as Chatlog though, because recording information through memory is buggy. A program like this would be especially useful for JDC, and I personally would like the ability to record roasts in a team game.

Respawn for loose weapons Built into jazz2.exe See third post. A one-time fix basically means no one can forget to run the needed program whenever hosting.

Lower Priority Programs

Trigger Stopwatch: Basically it records time for the server according to whenever a global trigger is activated. The stopwatch is activated once a specific crate is triggered. It would have to be customizable with a seperate text file that lists usable levels (particularly for Assault) and what each trigger does in each level. Therefore, each level would have to designate a start trigger as well as every other trigger (possibly for each team).

On a side note, Pyromanus is supposed to release some things to public, but there's no telling when.

More programs will be added to this list as more reasonable suggestions are made.
