client. format

[Deathborn123]

Hey There!

I just tried to call a public function with a client.var but probably wont work.
I guess its because the client.var got the wrong format.

What doesn't work ( calling the public function via the client.var)

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onCreated()
{
client.test = "test" //test would be the name of the Weapon where the public function is in. 
client.test.test2(); //test2 would be the public function. 
} 


What would work ( calling the public function via the normal WeaponName)

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onCreated()
{
"test".test2(); //test2 would be the public function. 
} 


Support please

I think I know what you're trying to do.

If you have a weapon called "myWeapon", you can just call it like this:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  myWeapon.testFunc();
} 


if the weapon name has any weird characters/spaces, etc in it, you can do

PHP Code:

(@ "-System/My Weapon").testFunc(); 


for example.

Not quite exactly, but it worked thanks

If you still want to use client.vars, do the following:

PHP Code:

( @ client.var).func();

Wrong.

PHP Code:

client.(@var @ "_propersyntax").(@subvar @ "_isawesome").(@etc) 


To call a function from a string, this would be best:

PHP Code:

temp.weapon_name = "myWeapon";
temp.function_name = "myFunction";

// Weapon based on string
(@temp.weapon_name).myFunction(param1, param2, etc);
// Function based on string
myWeapon.(@temp.functon_name)(param1, param2, etc);
// Weapon AND function based on string
(@temp.weapon_name).(@temp.function_name)(param1, param2, etc); 


Threw in some extra examples.

Not at all. Let's assume that client.var holds the string "-System", the name of the weapon npc (let's also assume that weapon npc exists). You could then either do:

PHP Code:

( @ "-System").func(); 


or:

PHP Code:

( @ client.var).func();

It's probably not a good idea to leave it open-ended (client.var) like that though, and it's a waste of a client variable.
