Dashboard vs GoldenGates V2

[Dashboard]

I'm pissed.

 

Code sample of 'his' file format (available by him from the Script Tester's section):

0#0,0,0,0,0#Dat Flax Picker,null,null,null,null

43#2724,3493,0,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null

Code sample of my file format as of SSF 1.0 (which was released on a jar, the code can be copied from it, which is where I assume he's getting these things from):

1#0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null
4#1733,1734,1745,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null
5#1745,26,0,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null
2#0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null
15#1733,1745,0,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null
8#104,399,0,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null
10#0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null
8#100,454,0,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null
9#0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null
18#0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0#null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null

Explanation - SSF loads files line by line as if they were commands. It follows the format of:

ACTION_ID#INT,INT,INT,INT,INT,INT,INT,INT#STRING,STRING,STRING,STRING,STRING,STRING,STRING,STRING

What's exceptionally remarkable is that both his and my script have 8 slots each for ints. What is also interesting is that both start with action ids, then go to int data, then go to String data in the same order. Another interesting fact is that both scripts use the "#" character to separate these bunches of data, which has no significance other than it being a personal choice that I made a few months ago out of preference to that character. There is no legit reason for him to use "#" to divide the data other than a VERY coincidental thought that was the same as mine.

 

My file format is just one way of HUNDREDS of possible routes that GoldenGates could have taken for his own script saving/loading, but it seems that his is an EXACT match to mine, which is extremely fishy.

 

Another thing that I must mention (old evidence to add to this) is:

 

His GUI:

 

 

My GUI:

 

GUI is nearly an EXACT match aside from slight changes to the names of the menus (instead of "new action", he made it "add action").

 

 

I'd like something done about this as @GoldenGates is clearly copying my work (not only the idea!) to sell it for profit. This is outrageous and something MUST be done.

 

Thanks,

Looks like you got some competition bud ;)

I shouldn't have to fight my own product.

And he shouldn't be able to profit off of my work by claiming it as his own.

[Baller]

Im pretty sure he changed his GUI

Both valid points. If he did copy that's a huge D move, but hey your the one who wrote it so you know the inner workings right?

 

My dads friends with a guy who started a company helping people on healthcare sue the government (or some shit like that) for money they deserved, and eventually it got huge. He then sold the company and created another to combat the company he just sold, and it took off because he knew exactly how the other company went out the lawsuits as he was the one who built it. He then sold that to and owns like 5 mansions.

 

What I'm saying is if your the one who built it use that to your advantage. You know the flaws and areas it lacks in, create a script that does better in those areas so people are forced into buying your product over his.

He still originally had the same GUI which shows that he's been building it around my program, similar to how one could use an RSPS source (or at least ripping code out of it).

Maybe he wouldn't copy your idea if you didn't make is so goddamn expensive?

 

umadbro?

It's $14.99 lifetime and comes with a full website and 4 live support workers.

It's hard to argue that it's expensive.

Hopefully this is not the case as I was excited to see two scripts compete against eachother.

Dude I'm so sorry for that, golden gates isn't a white night and I've seen it before...

Last week it was $25. Now that @GoldenGates script is coming out, you lowered it by 10 dollars. This is really saying something.

[Ricky]

You should just quit your whining and pm @Raflesia instead of taking this public...

Also..

SSF isn't even that good. I don't see what people see in it. For the first month it was great, but it becomes tedious. Its better to have a script that does a specific function rather than SSF. I regret purchasing tbh (I used to work for SSF isnt that ironic?)

It's a sale that we've been planning since October 11th. 834 people posted on our thread, and there were 105 likes asking for the sale. It had nothing to do with GoldenGates.

I've already notified Raflesia, and he's going to look at it when he wakes up.

And I've always said that SSF won't be a script made with Java, and that it's useful because it doesn't require an actual script writer to have to write the script for you (among some other related reasons).
