    Advice to Scripters

    Don't use dropdown backpack selection instead you update script constantly..

    I saw several scripts that don't have Glooth Backpack, or the shop bag.

    So better to stay in TEXT backpack mode :P

    People often make mistakes while putting names in text mode so its better to have it in combobox

    Gladly very few of us are dyslexic.
    Never argue with idiots, they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    I'm sorry, but I disagree. Like pretty much every feature on a script, this is a trade-off between flexibility and usability (a.k.a. ease of use and preventing the user from shooting himself in the foot). I'm very often inclined to chose flexibility because that's what I prefer and I believe I can take the decreased usability for the extra flexibility. But the average user can't. More often than not you'll find yourself having users with negative experience because they didn't have enough intelligence to fill a stupid setting correctly. It doesn't seem like it, but it happens a lot. Not to mention that the user may or not be able to realize the issue by himself, which if he doesn't will either result in you wasting time investigating and explaining to him or he being left with a very negative image of your script, feeling it doesn't work well.

    TL;DR: your final user will usually be less disappointed that your script doesn't support using Glooth Backpacks than he will be if he has extra trouble using it.

    You would think so.
