slot machines =0

Didnt near have slot machines before?

I approve!

He ish did he basically was the machine though, it wasn't plugin based.

Actually one of those CAN be built without a plugin or dispenser, like I did it. (but it certainly takes a lot of circuitry) The only thing it lacks is
automatic iconomy usage, of course, which is why I support it.



Pretty cool, huh?

Was that the same guy who did the Plants Versus Zombies? Same texture pack. (I'd look but can't be bothered if I'm honest ).

The only thing I don't like about it is it is a very specific plugin. Every plugin I add takes resources, and for something like slot machines, I don't know if the benefits outweigh the costs.

The more specific the less resource insensitive.

True, although this plugin does block modifications and jazz that I just think are extraneous.

well if you would like we can test out the performance difference on a test server and moninitor cpu and ram levels before and after.

Gota agree with pat there. Sure its nice, but is it realy worth it?

Yeah, No question if it's cool or not. However it seems pointless. Given I'm sure there could be some awesome uses for this but eh. Not really worth it.

It could be added for a week, see if it really is a resource hog and make a decision based on that. I think it'd be kinda cool to make a casino.

I know it wouldn't be *that* resource intensive, but I like to stay away from adding plugins that are situation specific like this.

It'd be fun though!

In other words, he is saying No. So just let it go cause I really doubt it's going to happen.

Yea adding plugins is a lot of hassle so it's not worth the effort if it's just something of a novelty.

^Forget what I said by there, with things like this we could try them, anything extra we can advertise that works is a plus if we want to keep paying for the server.
