callnpc param's

[Warcaptain]

NPC Code:

---

for (i=0;i<npcscount;i++){

   callnpc i,hit,50;

}

---

now how do i make an npc read the param 50 for the flag hit?

i never knew callnpc had params..

normal callnpc (and i think u know this)
if just like

callnpc whatever,hi;

then on the npc
if (hi) { setcharprop #c,hi; }

They dont

[LiquidIce00]

triggeraction is like
triggeraction playerx,playery,trigger,;

then on the npc ..

if (actiontrigger) {
whatever
}

but i dunno how to use the param on it

Triggeraction params are like gani aparms almost. ITs all string based so if you wanted a triggeraction to hit a person for like 1 damage (Would make more sence with hitobjects though) then...

NPC Code:

---

triggeraction targetx,targety,hitperson,1;

---

and the other person must have a weapon with contains

NPC Code:

---

if(actionhitperson) {

  hurt strtofloat(#p(0));

}

thats what I thought
i hardly ever use trigger action and when I do I dont really need params

!Error
From experience, it sends strings, not integers.
triggeraction this.testx,this.testy,hit,#v(50);

if(actionhit){
if(this.justhit<1){
this.justhit=50;
hearts-=strtofloat(#p(0));
}
}
if(playerenters||timeout){
if(this.justhit>0) this.justhit--;
timeout=0.05;
}

huh ....

Sorry, that should be #v(swordpower)...
if you're sending a variable, you gotta wrap it in #v() or it'll just send the name of the variable, ie "1" instead of "swordpower"

triggeraction this.testx,this.testy,fish,#v(this.oldpower);
this.damage=strtofloat(#p(0));
