Problem with simple script

PHP Code:


		
			
//#CLIENTSIDE

function onPlayerchats(){

  if(player.level in serverr.socialzones){

    client.exp += 1;

  }

}

the level I'm testing is in serverr.socialzones, I've tried both with and without quotes but no luck. when I try putting an else{player.chat = player.level SPC serverr.socialzones;} the results visibly match.

What's going on?

player.level.name in serverr.socialzones

Also try..

temp.socialzones = serverr.socialzones.tokenize(",");

in case your "array" isn't properly formatted.

player.level.name fixed it, thanks. I must ask of course, what did .name do exactly? returning player.level and player.level.name though chat yield visually the same thing.

Player.level is an object, not a string. Thus, you must access the 'name' variable of the object by appending '.name' to the end of 'player.level'.

As a part of the dynamic typing in GScript, if you try and represent an object as a string (which would have been what you did when you set player.chat = player.level;), then it automatically is showing the object name. However, this does not happen when you are working with the object itself because there is no such type conversion taking place, therefore you need to access the name attribute manually.

I'm new to this, but shouldn't the experience be stored in a clientr. variable so it is safe?

Yes (note that this would require triggering serverside to set it.)

Wordy yes.

Yes thats a perfectly fine way to do it, as long as it's being validated on the server-side.

Provided the EXP system is checking EXP on the server-side after it's added then there's no problem with trainers/CEs since they can only change the visible value to the client.

Unless they manipulate the client in such a way that it allows them to exploit a method to earn exp.
