question
 

[screen_name says:]

im new to NPC server scripting, so im trying to figure out what will work or not

lets see, will this make me have 90 gralats, make me say "I am screen_name!!", and set my body to body5 (my favoritest btw)??

NPC Code:

---

with (getplayer(screen_name))  {

playerrupees=90;

setplayerprop #c, I am screen_name!!;

setplayerprop #8, body5.png;

}

---

To be continued...

(suspensfully isn't it)

Yes, but only if you put it into an event, for example
if (created) {
// the stuff you posted.
}

[screen_name says:]

well of course

I'm gunna try get the .TXT file for NPC server Screen Name... that way w can learn a little

:megaeek: I found it on my computer, I thought I deleted it by mistake but here it is

[screen_name says:]

lets see, i found that file on my pc that i had dloaded from some site, anyway i have another question

NPC Code:

---

if (playerenters&&!hasweapon(System)) {

addweapon System;

}

if (isweapon) { timeout=.1; }

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (timeout) {

showimg 9,pandabear.png,50,50;

changeimgvis 9,4;

timeout=.1; }

---

is the //#CLIENTSIDE in the right spot??

i haven't learned much about how to use it

[screen_name says:]

lets see, another question

with the "with(getplayer(account))" command, will it still do something even if they are offline

NPC Code:

---

if (playersays(test)) {

with(getplayer(account)) {

  if (playeronline) {

     playerrupees+=100; 

  } else { playerrupees-=100; }

}

---

why else would Stefan add the flag, playeronline??

If you want an example for with(getplayer) here's one I typed up in a min (I'm trying to see if I can get someone with NPC Server acess to let me test it)
It's my Noobalizer
//NPC created by Jagen
if (created) {
// Initialize the attributes
showcharacter;
setcharprop #3,head0.png;
setcharprop #C0,orange;
setcharprop #C1,white;
setcharprop #C2,blue;
setcharprop #C3,red;
setcharprop #C4,black;
setcharprop #2,shield1.gif;
shieldpower = 1;
dir = 2;
}
if (playerchats&&startswith(noob,#c))
{tokenize #c;with(getplayer(#t(1)){
setplayerprop #C0,orange;
setplayerprop #C1,orange;
setplayerprop #C2,orange;
setplayerprop #C3,orange;
setplayerprop #C4,orange;
setplayerprop #1,sword1.png;
setplayerprop #2,shield1.png;
setplayerprop #3,head0.png;}
}

[screen_name says:]

i just want to know how to use //#CLIENTSIDE

hmm, I wist there was a npc program that is for NC and it shows ya how to convert simple scripts, then I could start converting my better ones

No, you don't put the weapons script into the NPC.
You just put if (playerenters) addweapon System; and use NC to add the weapon to the Database.

Nope, with (blah) only works for online players...

that is a great npc.

[screen_name says:]

will someone with NPC Server experience let me know if my last 2 scripts will work or not??

NPC Code:

---

if (playersays(test)) {

with(getplayer(account)) {

  if (playeronline) {

     playerrupees+=100; 

  } else { playerrupees-=100; }

}

---

NPC Code:

---

if (playerenters&&!hasweapon(System)) {

addweapon System;

}

if (isweapon) { timeout=.1; }

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (timeout) {

showimg 9,pandabear.png,50,50;

changeimgvis 9,4;

timeout=.1; }

---

It won't.

you shouldnt have posted that, those who have it arent supposed to give it out, though i doubt ne one will care, just reminding of rules :)

[screen_name says:]

okay, im working on divided kingdoms and i have npc server priveleges, so now im testing it out, but it doesnt work

here is the script

NPC Code:

---

if (playerchats) {

with (getplayer(#a)) {

setstring client.chatted,#c; }

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (weaponfired) {

say2 testing; }

---

and this doesn't work, will someone explain

NPC Code:

---

if (playerchats) {

  with (getplayer(#a)) {

    setstring client.chatted,#c;

  }

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (weaponfired) {

  say2 testing;

}

---

If that's a weapon and it doesn't exist in any level it won't ever recieve playerchats, and even if it is in a level, it'll only recieve it when the player is in the same level. Plus, I've heard that with (getplayer(#a)) { doesn't work.

x.x I didn't know that, I don't even know how I got it

hey, e-mail me, [email protected], and i can help...
