    @o3210: Go

    I thought active was active computers too,

    I thought that active just excluded player 15(hostile) and 0(neutral)

    my maps will always be Free. and Available to the public at the earliest possible date.

    If you need a tester feel free to ask IShadowWolf.258

    You can also catch me on the IRC most times.

    I believe All Players include players who have left too

    Nope, active includes all comp players in my experience.

    I think the difference is that if a player leaves the game, they are no longer considered active.

    I believe this is true.

    Some times for max verbosity in my maps, I've just looped through numbers 1 to 8 (assuming i've had 8 players), and check if that player number is playing, and not controlled by computer...

    p.s. I've quit mapping since Nov 2011.

    @OneTwoSC: Go

    This is a particularly good point. If I only want it to happen to players of a certain status I can always check the players and add them to a player group... Then remove them as they quit.

    Thanks.
