Statue Bug
 

Server:Delteria
Level:Multiple levels but for the sake of convience gphangout_halloffame.nw
Occurance:Whenever the level is updated
Other People:Yes, everyone using V4 that I have spoken to are having this issue
Steps to follow:Just have one of the staff update level and if there is a statue in it set to X+.5 (ie:x=13.5 and it positions the statues @ 13)
Graal version:4.0.3.2

I am the current GP Captain on Delteria and am responsible for updating this statue room. This is getting quite annoying because everytime I upload the level or say update level this issue occurs, it is getting quite cumbersome. These are not extravigant scripts, acctually they are quite the opposite.
Example of Code:

NPC Code:

---

// NPC made by Bumbo Drakken (GP Captain)

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (created) {

  // Initialize the attributes

  showcharacter;

  setcharprop #3,secure--bumbo--head1.png;

  setcharprop #C0,orange;

  setcharprop #C1,black;

  setcharprop #C2,black;

  setcharprop #C3,black;

  setcharprop #C4,black;

  setcharprop #n,Bumbo;

  setcharprop #2,bibleburners-shield.png;

  setcharprop #8,cainbody.png;

  setcharprop #P(1),hat104.png;

  shieldpower = 1;

  ap=100;

  dir = 2;

  x=54.5;

}

What exactly is happening? Also why don't you put that code on serverside (remove the //#CLIENTSIDE line) ?

I think he means positions are being messed up somehow.

Often happens to me that someone has to do upload level before NPCs with an x+=.5; script or whatever appear at their right location...Only with v4.

yes, this is exactly what I mean

In the case of the NPC I posted; instead of showing up at 54.5 it was showing up at 54.

I have changed the NPC over to Serverside and it seems to have fixed the problem.
(P.S. I always thought that Statue NPCs were supposed to be Clientside)

Eventually the script is executed before the position is received, I don't recommend changing the npc attributes in the created-statement of the client side at all.

Lol Stefan :> You know Enton...I know that you know him xD. He always said satue NPCs should be clientside :p.
