seteffect aka daynight...

[theHAWKER]

Ok, i have a cave where it gets dark when you go inside (which works fine...), then when you walk out u link to the gmap. on the gmap i want it to be light again, but whatever i do it wont work >

This is what i have in the cave:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
if (created){
dontblock;
drawaslight;
setcoloreffect 1,1,0,0.50;
timeout = .5;
}
if (timeout) {
seteffect ,,,random(.30,.60);
sleep random(.2,.1);
timeout = .1;
} 


And i also have:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
if (playerleaves) {
seteffect 0,0,0,.0;
} 


non of this works... so on the gmap i have this script:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
if (created){
seteffect ,,,0;
}
if (playerenters){
seteffect ,,,0;
} 


and still it wont work x.x

can somone help me out?

Just make a master control system that sets lighteffects based on the levels you are in or so (a wNPC).

If you're on the map, then you'd do:

PHP Code:

if (isonmap)
{
 //seteffect here
}
else if (startswith(whatever_cave.gmap,#L))
{
 //seteffect here
} 


etc...

there would be alot of "else if's"...

Then make the system with a for loop. And have an array of level prefixes and seteffect parameters for the loop to use.

PHP Code:

setstring this.levels, level1.nw, level2.nw;
setstring this.level_level1.nw, 0, 0, 0, 1;
setstring this.level_level2.nw, 0, 0, 1, 1;
setstring this.start, overworld, cavegmap, elitehouse;
setstring this.start_overworld, 0, 0, 0, 1;
setstring this.start_cavegmap, 0, .5, .5, 1;
setstring this.start_elitehouse, 1, .5, 0, 1;
for ( a = 0; a < this.levels.size(); a++ ) // I don't know the GS1 size var for an array, sorry!
{
  if ( strequals( #L, #s( this.levels[a] ) ) )
  {
    setstring this.temp, this.( @ "level_" @ #s( this.levels[a] ) ); // Really sorry, not sure if this is possible in GS1
    seteffect this.temp[0], this.temp[1], this.temp[2], this.temp[3];
  }
}
for ( a = 0; a < this.start.size(); a++ ) // I don't know the GS1 size var for an array, sorry!
{
  if ( startswith( #s( this.start[a] ), #L ) )
  {
    setstring this.temp, this.( @ "start_" @ #s( this.start[a] ) ); // Really sorry, not sure if this is possible in GS1
    seteffect this.temp[0], this.temp[1], this.temp[2], this.temp[3];
  }
} 


A few things might need tweaked but I think that will work ...
