Serverside onActionProjectile?

[Pheonixfire]

Allow me to clarify. I would add a clientside section with the "function OnActionProjectile()" code, and inside that function put a triggerserver() for a weapon. You could try a triggeraction() since it's not a weapon, and put the onaction in the serverside part of the code. That should work...

Ugh so I tried a trigger, why wont this work?
hurtenemy is a function I made in the serverside section of the script that does some other functions. I intentionally left out a few params on the triggeraction, just for testing purposes. Doesn't work though.

NPC Code:

---

function onActionClientproj() {

      hurtenemy();

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onActionProjectile() {

  triggeraction(x + 0.5, y + 0.5, "Clientproj"); 

}

As Stan said, set the shape, but also, you should use this.x and this.y since this is GS2.

You don't need to use this.x and this.y when there's no other scopes involved (This is for npcs, not for players). It's about personal preference.

Also, you need a setshape serverside for the serverside to detect triggers and a setshape clientside for the clientside to detect triggers

onActionProjectile() triggers clientside when the player is hit with it. You should use onActionProjectile2() I guess, not sure if onActionProjectile() works for NPCs.
For onActionProjectile2():
params[0] is the x where the projectile lands
params[1] is the y
params[2 .. n] are the shoot paramaters (setShootParams() I think)

People actually take that as personal preference?

That's just being lazy in my opinion, and it can make it hard to go back and edit.

Lazy? All scripters are lazy, so what's your point? =D

I don't see anything wrong with it, and it's not really being lazy either. Sometimes it adds to the readability of a formula or something similar.
