About weapons...(stefan please respond)
 

Ok well I am trying to make a way were hte system weapon will update for everyone when I update the system weapon...

I have tried this in the npc server...

join system

the in system I have something like

//#CLIENTSIDE
if(playerenters&&isweapon&&!hasweapon(-system)){
toweapons -system
}
//Rest of system coding...

when I do this it gives me a message like
illegal data or something like that and disconnects me

on rc it says
Frolic_Admin2 has added weapon (Hacker?)

so then on rc I have to
/open Frolic_Admin2
then I have to warp my self befor I can get back on

what can I do to make it work for the system weapon

so..
 

so I should do something like

if(playerenters&&isweapon&&!hasweapon(-system)){
toweapons -system
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
//Rest of system coding...

I am going to test it out later on tonight... If I get any more problems I will post them

NO! Nothing that goes toweapons should have //#CLIENTSIDE anywhere in the script. When an NPC goes toweapons it takes on a special form of clientside-ness.

Yes weapons are special
When the toweapons thing is called then
the whole npc script is taken as weapon
script and copied to database + sent to the player.

You can have //#CLIENSIDE stuff for the npc,
but it will not appear in the weapon.
Don't call 'toweapons' on client-side, that
will be recognized as cheating and you will
be disconnected.

addweapon is just adding the name of the weapon
to the weapon list of the player, so it doesn't change
weapons, and only works when the weapon already
exists

Weapons are automatically updated whenever a player reconnects. I think that's as easy as it gets...

I thought you couldnt use join when your dealing with weapons...

get out the advil
 

You guys r giving me a head ache w/ all this script stuff! 0.o

Re: get out the advil
 

Then dont read the stuff that we say on the NPC server topic. lol

The Database should be more accesible to all servers.

it would help a great deal I believe.

I never heard of addweapon until recently.

it prabably should be the only command used.

I mean why not just make adding weapons to the database something staff do. rather than adding it every time anyone gets any weapon with toweapons.

once is enough.. sheesh....

uh... oops
Im Rogue Shadow
thnx past for letting me use this. =)

wow this post is really old... Back when I was first learning how to script with the npc server...

humm and you brought it back :-\

lol..

lol yeah I never look at dates I just ran a search.


I never scripted for p2p so It's new to me lol.

It's lousy that only guys with p2p worlds accepted can even hope to learn to script for p2p.

Without a way to script it and test it offline you just can't do it. just like you can't script for online if you only have offline.



I gotta get my own upgraded account soon lol

Actually weapons arnt updated each time a player logs on
When someone changes it on NPC Server Control its automaticaly updated to every play carrying it, there is no need to relog on to get the new weapon :-P Great for testing weapons online quickly

heh
