Can a client force open another program?

[bWolfie]

Hi,

I am wondering if it is possible for a client to force open something? I am interested in having an atcommand which can open a command prompt and initiate some commands.

Thanks

@Myriad, Im not quite sure but I think this isn't possible.  :neutral:

Hm okay, was wondering since a server I played long ago had a command which would open a command prompt then initiate a ping test.

Cyro in the Discord server linked an old source release on rathena re: ping command. I will check it out and investigate.

@Myriad I guess it needs src mod/plugins to achieve that. Anyways, I found @ping command "request" for plugin way back 2015, here's the link:

As I mentioned in topic, it works on 2011/12 client.

However there's some new packets in 2015/16/(17? Haven't tested), which would allow the ping-type of request.

Else the best method is hook a DLL and allow ping with custom made packet, so it works with all clients.
