Q&A

Script

Q: Which language does MyG4mes run on?

A: MyG4mes is written using Python, but the games run in JavaScript (Java or JS for short). It will *convert* all your code with the wires into this language. The games do not work without converting the Script-O connections into a particular language. For example, creating a moving person would take these steps using the JS language:

// Too easy to make??

Person(pos=(GetPos(obj=))
set_cam(LERP(from=Camera)(to=(GetPos(obj=(Person object ID))
press_key?(key=Right)
  move_by(obj=(Person object ID))(direction=(Direction(direction=0.1,0,0))
press_key?(key=Left)
  move_by(obj=(Person object ID))(direction=(Direction(direction=-0.1,0,0))

MyG4mes Service

Q: What is the sharing platform?

A: It is the MyG4mes World! For a list of popular games on the service, see the MyG4mesMatrix.

Q: How old do I have to be in order to use the service?

A: All ages can use the service.

Q: What should I do when I find a mean user (MyG4mer) or an inappropriate game?

A: Report the MyG4mer or game. If it is a game, the TOG plus the moderation team will refuse it's classification with MARS to allow only over 18s to play the game, and immediately delete it after 3 days. If it is a MyG4mer, we will block the user and prevent anyone using their IP from creating a new account.

Q: How can I share a game?

A: Follow these steps:

1. If you haven't, sign in to MyG4mes. New to MyG4mes? Sign up.
2. In Free Programming, click the arrow next to the + button.
3. Choose "Share to community", not "Share with somebody".
4. Select the game you want to share. You cannot share a game you downloaded on the MyG4mes world, unless you are the owner of that game, previously unshared it on the device you are using, and is currently unshared.
5. Select "Share this game!" if you agree to the community guidelines. Otherwise, select "Decline, don't share".
6. Wait until your game is shared.

Note: All games are rated using our MARS system. The process takes a while, then you will find the rating. You will be notified via email when your game is rated by the moderation team.

Q: Am I blocked when my account is now controlled by a hacker?

A: To protect your account, we block you indefinitely when a hacker logs into your account. Use the MBAS or email Tyler to verify that you are now in control, and you will be unblocked.

TOG

Q: How can I apply to be a TOG member?

A: Make sure you are a user of GitHub (and if you want to develop MyG4mes, make sure you have an account on it as well), then request to be one on the TOG GitHub profile. You will not be sent to an organisation, this is GitHub-only.
