Passing Actions
 

Alright, I have this NPC

// NPC made by Lord Helmut
if (created) {
x+=.4;
y+=.7;
}
if (playerenters) {
message Player 1;
}
if (playertouchsme) {
setani idle,;
disabledefmovement;
setstring server.axeplayer1,#a;
setfocus 31,28;
}

then I have this one

// Graal2002 NPC by Stefan Knorr
if (created) {
showcharacter;
setcharprop #3,head0.png;
setcharprop #C0,orange;
setcharprop #C1,white;
setcharprop #C2,blue;
setcharprop #C3,red;
setcharprop #C4,black;
setcharprop #2,noshield.gif;
dir = 3;
}
if(playerenters){
timeout=.05;
}
if(timeout){
if(strequals(#a,server.axeplayer1)){
if(keydown(3)){
x+=5;
timeout=.05;
}
timeout=.05;
}
}

the first NPC is a controlled and the second is supposed to move when the first one is used. Like, the first is a button, im trying to make it so that if they push right it moves the NPC in the ring. Any idea why it wont pass the action?

callnpc index,event;

i guess that would work

Babylon is a free server. Callnpc is only for p2p last time I checked. Why not use the server string as a number. first use it as 1 then use other script as 2?

The code
 

if(strequals(#a,server.axeplayer1)){
is comparing your account name to the word server.axeplayer1.

if(strequals(#a,#s(server.axeplayer1))){
would more likely run.

Re: The code
 

thanks, I will try it :D

im confused

first off, what was your ? lordhelmut

second, callnpc isn't only for p2p is it??

You probably mean getnpc...

lets hope so

Yeah that is very true, whenever you express something like a string like server.playeri you have to put #s() around it otherwise the code checks on the string server.playeri not the value of the string server.playeri.

except when using the string arrays functions, like lindexof or sarraylen

well, yeah, but some people may not know that

hmmm
 

I aint sure what you are trying to achiev, but i have created a sniper rifle using a simliar thing but using Keydowns rather than call npc and all that stuff,

Re: hmmm
 

a sniper rifle? for a 2d game, man why would you want something like that

because it is a weapon not currently used, it isn't a TRUE sniper rifle as in you hit them one place and it only takes so much off, but you cant kill someone with it,
i guess you could call it a long range riffle but then wouldn't sound as good :P

what??

i guess you will have to wait and see

cant wait,
