Problem with moving a class-npc

So I have something made in a class-npc (a particle effect, placed in a weapon with putnpc2) and I would like the entire NPC to be moved by any means. (ive tried all ways and only setting its x and y work but they reset the particle). Anyways, I'm looking for a way to move the npc smoothly preferably with the move() function but it does not seem to be working...

PHP Code:


		
			
//#CLIENTSIDE

function onCreated() {

  setshape(1, 32, 32);

  with (findimg(1)) {

    with (findplayer("pig132")) {



      x = player.x;

      y = player.y;

      

      layer = 2;

      

      emitter.delaymin = 0.1;

      emitter.delaymax = 0.1;

      emitter.nrofparticles = 2;

      emitter.maxparticles = 100;

      

      emitter.particle.lifetime = 4;

      emitter.particle.image = "g4_particle_tornado.png";

      emitter.particle.mode = 1;

      emitter.particle.zoom = 1;

      emitter.particle.alpha = 0.3;

      

      emitter.particle.angle = pi / 2;

      emitter.particle.speed = 4.8;

      emitter.addglobalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "angle", "add", 0, 0);

      emitter.addemitmodifier("impulse", 0, 0, "movex", "replace", -0.75, 0.75);

      emitter.addlocalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "rotation", "replace", 0, 7);

      

      emitter.addlocalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "zoom", "replace", 0.6, 0.6);

      

      emitter.addlocalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "spin", "replace", 8.3, 10.3);

      emitter.addlocalmodifier("range", 0.15, 4, "zoom", "add", 0.2, 2);

      emitter.addlocalmodifier("range", 3, 3, "alpha", "replace", 0.5, 0.1);

    }

  }

}

not sure if it really matters but there is my code. using move() does not work at all

Put your particle emitter in a gani. I.e:

yourserver_effect.gani

PHP Code:


		
			
GANI0001



SCRIPT

function onPlayerEnters() {

  with (findimg(1)) {



    attachtoowner = true;



    layer = 2;



    emitter.delaymin = 0.1;

    emitter.delaymax = 0.1;

    emitter.nrofparticles = 2;

    emitter.maxparticles = 100;



    emitter.particle.lifetime = 4;

    emitter.particle.image = "g4_particle_tornado.png";

    emitter.particle.mode = 1;

    emitter.particle.zoom = 1;

    emitter.particle.alpha = 0.3;



    emitter.particle.angle = pi / 2;

    emitter.particle.speed = 4.8;

    emitter.addglobalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "angle", "add", 0, 0);

    emitter.addemitmodifier("impulse", 0, 0, "movex", "replace", -0.75, 0.75);

    emitter.addlocalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "rotation", "replace", 0, 7);



    emitter.addlocalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "zoom", "replace", 0.6, 0.6);



    emitter.addlocalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "spin", "replace", 8.3, 10.3);

    emitter.addlocalmodifier("range", 0.15, 4, "zoom", "add", 0.2, 2);

    emitter.addlocalmodifier("range", 3, 3, "alpha", "replace", 0.5, 0.1);



  }

}

Then use showani, setani, shoot, or store it in a attr.

Oh sorry I should have said this up front. I'm not looking for it to move with me, just move where i specify like in the move command. If i were to use a gani, I would have to make the npc that was placed show the gani, and then what? Its still in the class and for whatever reason move() doesn't want to work

move() move's the npc not necessarily the showimg/findimg it creates. You can attach the findimg to the npc like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
//#CLIENTSIDE

function onCreated() {

  with (findimg(200)) {

    image = "block.png";

    x = thiso.x;

    y = thiso.y;

    // The magic 'attach' command you want:

    attachtoowner = true;

  }

  move(0, 10, 1.6, 0);

}

Exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much!

Just another quick question. Does the move() command only show it moving for the client? i've tried on both the clientside and serverside and still others do not see it moving.

move on the client-side will only move it for you.

move on the server-side will show for everyone.

Post the code you're using if it doesn't work properly when u move on the server-side.

Actually just got it, thanks so much again!!
