TServerPlayer.onNickChanges(str, str)

TServerPlayer.onNickChanges(str, str) event - nick changes: new and old nick name

I'm having trouble using this...Does anyone know how it works, or if it even works at all?

onPlayerNickChanges(pl) works, but it only passes a player object in the parameters so I would have to keep track of the players old nickname manually. That seems silly to do when there's supposed to be another event that does exactly what I need.

I believe you have to catch the event. I told Chris this but I don't know if he ever relayed the message to you.

Try something like:

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() {
  this.catchEvent(findplayer("salesman"), "onNickChanges", "onNickChanged");
}

function onNickChanged(pl, old, new) {
  echo(pl.account @ "'s old name: " @ old @ " new name: " @ new);
}

Yeah we tried that, and I just tried it again...no luck. Unless I'm doing something wrong; does it matter where I put that? Control-NPC?

Edit: I'm wondering if this has something to do with having a custom nickname system on era?
Edit x2: enabled default nicknames and it still didn't work, so scratch that

I tried as well with no luck, both serverside and clientside. I also searched the wiki for onNickChanges, with no results.
There is no mention of it in graal -listscriptfunctions either, but that doesn't list events at all, so no surprises there I guess.

Maybe it just somehow got added into /scripthelp without the event actually being triggered, or maybe it's just not catchable.

Maybe it just doesn't work, or maybe it will work in the new version.

*bump*

Looks like this haven´t been fixed. I also tried the code Tig posted (serverside and clientside)

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() {
  this.catchEvent(findplayer("callimuc"), "onNickChanges", "onNickChanged");
}
function onNickChanged(pl, old, newn) {
  echo(pl.account @ "'s old name: " @ old @ " new name: " @ newn);
}

Any way Stefan is adding it? Seems like he mentioned he will add it into the next npcserver update, but thats also 2 years ago now.

You could do a check like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
//#CLIENTSIDE

function ChatBar.onAction() {

  if (ChatBar.text.starts("setnick")) {

    temp.new_nickname = ChatBar.text.substring("setnick".length());

    temp.old_nickname = player.nick;

  }

}
