Easy access to in game browser
 

I'm sure many have figured this out, or even a better way, but it took a little messing around to make it easy for my own use. The code to do it I found here on the forums (sorry, I forget who posted it).

Using the Underfoot client, I can now access the in-game browser with "/say internet"

In:
EQEmulator->quests->global->global_player.pl

I added:
sub EVENT_SAY {
if($text=~/internet/i) {
$client->SendWebLink("https://www.google.com");
}
}

You can change the address to whatever of course. But now I can look stuff up no matter where my characters are without having to window out. Handy, and thanks for tips that lead me to this!

Keep in mind, with global_player.pl you must have a player.pl in the zone folder for whatever zone you're in, regardless of whether or not the player.pl is empty, it is required for the global_player.pl to parse.

That is not the case. They run dual stack.

It was the case, it may not be the case anymore though. It used to require player.pl.

For future reference, the issue to which I was referring was fixed in this commit: https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/comm...6647cfcc4d8fec
