Here what I have, door.png for a test...

NPC Code:



if (playertouchsme) {

  toweapons Lamp;

}

if (weaponfired) {

  if (!client.on) {

    set client.on;

    replaceani idle,lamp_idle;

    replaceani walk,lamp_walk;

    timeout=.05;

  }

}



else

  {

  unset client.on;

  replaceani idle,idle;

  replaceani walk,walk;

  hideimg 023;

}

if (timeout) {

  if (client.on) {

    showimg 023,door.png,playerx,playery;

    timeout=.05;

  }

}

Whats wrong, it dont show up!?

for one, to shorten the script for the on/off part, use something like
this.on=abs(this.on-1);
if(this.on==1){
//stuff
}
also, you sure the showimg part is right? try setting a drawing height
and
right now the else statement is unsetting the flag if something other than weaponfired happened

"client." is like a "local." flag.

Stored in the user's account, able to be changed by the client, and read by the server.

I think..

Thats why they shouldn't be confused with each other.

Just move the else part to be after the if (!client.on) instead.

You don't need to set a drawing height for showimg, if you don't set one it automattically get's set to a drawing height of 2.

He was the one that helped the most, Thankyou! And thanks to the rest of you for trying to help.. Ill get full code done with working lights in 20mins and give it out for you all...

Damn still stuck, the index of light 2, i cant get it to set lighteffect of 023 index,

NPC Code:



if (playertouchsme) {

  toweapons bob;

}

if (weaponfired) {

  if (!client.on) {

    set client.on;

    replaceani idle,lamp_idle;

    replaceani walk,lamp_walk;

    timeout=.05;

  }

else

  {

  unset client.on;

  replaceani idle,idle;

  replaceani walk,walk;

  hideimg 023;

}

}

if (timeout) {

  if (client.on) {

    showimg 023,light2.png,playerx-1,playery-1.5;

changecoloreffects 023,1,0,0,0; //Unknown Command?

  drawaslight;

dontblock;

    timeout=.05;

  }

}

Also t does not reconise this command, what other ways can you do it:

NPC Code:



changecoloreffects 023,1,0,0,0; //Unknown Command?
