players in room

[bashjgovers]

hey i wanna make a event house where the people dont need ET to play events. I wanna make the doors will open automatic when there are enough players in the room. Can anyone help me with this?

Use a for loop and the playercount variable.

[Snakeandy7]

Wasnt there a command like
if (playerscount == 2){..}
Bla, But i'd listen to kiirar, the loop is the best direction to go

...That's close to what Kirrar's saying.

Use a for loop and the playercount variable.

And you mean a timeout loop?

[Neoreno]

No. I mean a for loop.


Edit: I re-read what they wanted, a timeout loop would be more useful in this case.

ok... i'm no scripting genius, heck, i can barelly make a door

but wouldn't it look like this?

NPC Code:

---

timeout=0.5;



if (timeout && playercount>5){

  do something;

  timeout=0.5;

}

---

but I don't know, i've never used player count, and heck, i suck at scripting..

Don't declare flags/variables etc. outside of code blocks. In addition, do not have an event check and a conditional check in the same if (statement). I suggest defining timeout in playerenters.

[Neoreno]

Well. The timeout is too infrequent. A timeout of 0.05 would do.
The variable is playerscount I believe. Not to mention it doesn't conform to KSI-GS standards.

The logic behind this is...?

[marcoR]

not the standards!? NO!!! *cuts hand off* it was an example, sheesh, and what's wrong with doing that? (give me a good reason and i'll never do it again)

[edit]
sorry about the timeout I always do that.. I don't even know why, I meant 0.05 tho.

It is neater. Read KSI-GS standards thread.

[marcoR]

meh, I guess I'll fall to the wrain of kai...

so would it be like this?

NPC Code:

---

timeout=0.05;



if (timeout){

  if(playerscount>5){

     do something, please!;

   }

  timeout=0.05;

}

---

atleast that's how I understood it...

You should still need to define timeout in a code block.

[marcoR]

than like this!?

NPC Code:

---

if (created){

  timeout=0.05;

}



if (timeout){

  if(playerscount>5){

     do something, please!;

   }

  timeout=0.05;

}

---

!?

Yes.
