Hello, what do you find a flaw in my idea? It would be great to hear some suggestions and why you do not support it

Although this could be done down the line, development should be focussing on server stability.

Hi, as much as I agree with improving stability should be a priority; it shouldn't be so much that user experience and community input to ideas is reduced. Perhaps a separate post on how development should focus on server stability would better fair, I'd happily +support that suggestion

How would you add an individual law then ?

Would you have to copy and paste your new text file into it or would you just be able to add it on the bottom ?

I personally don’t mind the current law system. But I’ve been on FL for 5 years now and it’s always been like this I guessed it’s just norm ?

Most of us have scripts etc any that’s used and makes it 10x easier. There was a how to guide a long time ago in the Help & Support section.

It sounds like a nice idea to me.

I guess that it could just broadcast when a file is imported, which should settle the issue that Barry suggested.

Regarding Marty's concern, it would be possible to add a law to the bottom or re-import.

I reckon if you were able to add individual laws to the bottom etc. Or even better, replace laws or edit them while in game or change order etc with having to tab out and re import a text file I see that as being a decent improvement to the current system.

The question is though, is it possible lol.

Everything is possible.

Suppose it could be quite good. Easy for new players to understand, doesn't take a lot of time to edit if adding extra laws, doesn't require any code knowledge as the need for a script would become nil.
I think there should however be a limit on how many lines a user can add, and a character limit per line else users could create stupidly long all in one paragraph rather than how it is currently. It could also be used to crash the server if users start uploading large txt files full of complete shit.

If done correctly, +support
