sethead not working

ArchAngelTCN_P2P · #1 08-16-2002, 06:16 AM

Two days ago SL got the NPC Server. Since then sethead doesn't work. When a player tries to change there head it gets set to the newbie head. Is there a server option that has to be used to allow it because our Scripter's can't figure out what the problem is.

This is only a hunch...
Theres a serveroption called "setbodyallowed"
There could be a setheadallowed=true too

Might as well try it, you have nothing to lose

npc server has a 'race' string, only humans are allowed to sethead and such, add this to the control-npc (it is in the database)
if(actionplayeronline){
setstring client.race,human;
}
and it should work
BTW: DONOT delete the Control-NPC, doing so shuts the npc server down

I still can't seem to get sethead to work. I'm not sure if that race thing is working or if I have to wait some time for the options to kick in. But it doesn't seem to work. I guess I'll have to wait and see.

are you sure the people have the string? try opening someone their attributes and see if the string client.race=human is in their flag list

yes, its in my account. Also in everyone else, but I still can't set my head.

Edit: Nevermind, it works. Thank you for your help.

why does the npc server have a race string for all servers??

Probably because it was made for 2k1 which has Bomy's and Humans. Thats just a guess though.

maybe they custom scripted it in the *Player-System thing

Delteria had an NPC Server long before the rest. So Stefan most likely made it custom and spent time on it. It seems as though Stefan copied and altert the 2k1 NPC Server for the rest of the servers for some reason. Perhaps it had more things or was just easier that way.

delteria hasnt had an npc server for awhile....I think it was custom scripted tho, all the servers that recently got npcs servers, (Delteria, babylon, npulse, etc) have a different version than servers like Frolic, 2k1, etc (the servers that DONT go down when the USA3 server breaks) the newer npc servers dont take up as much resources
