Trivial little thing
 

I'll be the first to say that i'm not a scripter. I've never been a scripter.
But I do make events pretty good, and I need a little bit of help.
I have a script where it works exactly how I want it to, except it can't be seen by all other players.
So im asking the experts, how would I make this so that it does the same thing, (if player touches a block, it shoots an arrow with a .5 second cool down time), except it can be seen/hurt other players?

This is what I have so far:

NPC Code:

---

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (playertouchsme) {

 if (!this.mytimer) {

  shootarrow 3;

  set this.mytimer;

  timeout = .5;

 }

}

if (timeout) {

 unset this.mytimer;

}

---

When I unclientside it, the entire thing just doesn't work.
I know timeout and playertouchsme don't work together.
Help? :(

Lol I think I put this in the wrong part of this forum, if someone could move it (if its in the wrong place) that'd be nice =x

WHat do you mean by unclientside?
dont just delete the clientside put serverside....thats the best i can do to help

When //#CLIENTSIDE does not exist in a script the NPC server reads it as serverside.

And your problem is: shootarrow() is a clientside-only script. It will not work serverside. It would be a smart idea to check the wiki before posting.

Zzz. I know shootarrow is clientside only, I'm wondering if there's an easy way to edit the script so that people can see it.
It's a legitimate thread, don't patronise me with the wiki.

Anyone have a -good- contribution?
A "Yes it can be done" or a "No it can't" would be helpful.

Do not give bad advice.

//#SERVERSIDE does NOT exist. What Kronan says is correct.
Using shoot() is an alternative, however, you would have to design the projectile yourself and hurt the player when received, say, in a weapon.
