Fish Selling System Help
 

Ok, so I have this fish buying system. It's a gui I made with the f6 gui editor. It basically has like 20 buttons and if you have that fish and you want to sell it, you click on the name of the fish and it sells the fish to the npc 1 at a time.


It seems like it's working but right after it adds you money, it takes it away.

Example: You fish for a catfish, you click "sell catfish", you get 10 dollars for the fish, then 1 millisecond later, you get it taken away and it goes back to the original amount of money you had before selling it.

Here is the script.

//#CLIENTSIDE

MyGUI_Window1.visible = true;

check out towards the end to see the script I have. Please someone help me fix it. thanks [;

Money changes, with other important stats (such as health, magic, etc) can only be changed on the serverside portion of the script.

Look into triggerserver and the onActionServerside() event :)

Use please

On the topic of usability, you may want to consider a simpler dialog with three elements: a quantity, a drop down box (for fix selection) and a confirmation button.

I couldn't find the article I was looking for on the wiki, so I'll summarize for you.

You need to change the player's money serverside. The best way to do this would be to trigger serverside like this

Then, at the top of your script (on serverside), you need to determine how much salmon the player has, then figure out how much to pay them. Take away the salmon, then pay the player.

This is a basic outline of what you want to do. If you were to add the rest of your script, it would look like this:


However, an easier way to do the serverside bit would be

This just saves work, and makes it easier to change things later on. If that method confuses you, use the first one. Remember you're going to have to change the variables around to fit your server (e.g. clientr.money, clientr.fish.name)

Lovely post, I'd do my selling of the fish differently though

The code you posted is wrong, actually. You'd need to do this (you forgot to take that index out of the array):

My way is probably more efficient, however, since the engine isn't having to check through the array once to find the index, add one to the index, then loop through the array again to find the other index. However, it'd be such a miniscule difference it would work fine either way.

Oh, you're right haha. How dumb of me =p
