REQUEST: triggerplayer

I'm requesting a 'triggerplayer' command, or even giving the 'trigger' command the ability to target players.
I want to be able to do this from the clientside.

There have been many times I wanted to trigger a player with a triggeraction, but I couldn't. Dropping a triggeraction on the target player's x and y doesn't work all the time if the target has a bit of lag or is moving faster than normal.

Is there any way this command could be added?

EDIT: Napo reminded me to mention this: It can be done on the serverside, yes, but I want to be able to do it from the clientside. Like a triggeraction.

Example (when the weapon is fired, it triggers 'DoDamage' on anyone without 'Server' in their guild tag)

HTML Code:

Weapon

function onWeaponFired() {

  for (a: players) {

    if (!a.guild.contains("Server")) {

      a.trigger("DoDamage", 4);

    }

  }

}

HTML Code:

System

function onActionDoDamage(dmg) {

  hurt(dmg);

}

Does anything need clarifying?

Can't you use a player joined class and do player.function(foo)?

Exactly ;).

Era exposes a .doDamage() function in its player class. As well as many other utilities :)

It's a very nice method for streamlining player functionality.

Ahh, I see your point now ;). In that case, then it's not such a bad idea.

I would suggest making a serverside HP system, it's more secure and having the same effect.

I don't want it for a HP System, I just used it as an example..
It could be used in a lot of different NPCs. :/
