Question involving triggeractions

[Gman4pwnu]

Just wondering, how can I go to serverside script in button b to open door a which is a class clientside? I tried sending actiongrab which is what it normally opens on to its x+.5,y+.5. It wouldn't work. Any help?

Triggeraction can't be used to send things clientside between NPCs. Well, I don't know about two different NPCs, but trying to trigger the same NPC's clientside part doesn't work. (NPC weapons are an exception to this though... they can use triggeraction 0,0,clientside,weaponname the same way you do triggeraction 0,0,serverside,weaponname.)

A solution would be to set a save[] var or client.string to whatever you need. You can have a timeout checking that clientside to see if it has changed. If it has, do whatever you want to do.. obviously. :P If you use a client.string, be sure to unset it so the player doesn't get an extra flag left on their account. *waits for hacker-paranoid people to come and gripe at him about suggesting client.*

I think he wants to go from clientside to serverside?

Did you do setshape on the serverside?

Haha, now that I reread it, I'm not sure either. "Go to serverside" "to open door a which is class clientside"

Erm it's easy

NPC Code:

---

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (keybispressed){

triggeraction 0,0,serverside,open_door;

}

---

NPC Code:

---

if (actionserverside){

if (strequals(#p(0),open_door)){

open_door();

}

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

function open_door(){

It is not that easy.
