Gui Text Edit Problem

[clarke119]

Hey Guys,

As you may understand - I have recently returned to Graal and I am trying to learn Scripting again.

My problem is probably simple, however I do not remember how to solve this:

I have two text edit boxes on my Gang System, one for account name and the other for rank. The Account works fine when adding via the add. But the problem is how do I make the account work with the rank.

Think of it like this:

Account name: [account1.txt - Text Edit]
Rank: [rank1.txt Text Edit]

(Update Button)

I am finding the account via:

PHP Code:

 temp.pl = findplayerbycommunityname(params[1]);
    if (pl != NULL){
  }
 } 


I thought it Would be as simple as something like: pl.clientr.gangrank = rank1.txt but obviously not.

Please help me resolve this issue,

Thanks in advance,
Clarke.

When you click the button, send the text to serverside to set the clientr player variables.

Almost this same question was asked a few weeks ago:

You can read more about serverside, clientside, and triggers here.

You can find a simple example of responding to clicks on GUI buttons here.

Neither of them have what I'm looking for? Basically I'm just trying to get pl.clientr.gangrank = rank1.txt, but its deleting the clientr.gangrank flag altogether?

Both of them contain pieces of what you're looking for. Where are you stuck? Post your code so far.

This is the involved parts - not the full script. This is the last attempt I made at trying to do this..

PHP Code:

function onActionServerside(){
 if(params[0] == "rankchanger"){
    temp.pl = findplayerbycommunityname(params[1]);
    if (pl != NULL){
        rank = pl.clientr.gangrank;
        rights = pl.clientr.gangrights;
 }
}
      else{
      player.chat = "Player not found.";
 }
}

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
 new GuiTextEditCtrl("account1") {
      profile = GuiBlueTextEditProfile;
      height = 20;
      width = 120;
      x = 70;
      y = 40;
    }
    new GuiTextEditCtrl("rank1") {
      profile = GuiBlueTextEditProfile;
      height = 20;
      width = 120;
      x = 70;
      y = 70;
    }
new GuiTextEditCtrl("rights1") {
      profile = GuiBlueTextEditProfile;
      height = 20;
      width = 30;
      x = 94;
      y = 96;
    }

function UpdateButton.onAction() {
 temp.rank = rank1.txt;
 temp.rights = rights1.txt;
  triggerserver("gui",this.name,"rankchanger",account1.text,temp.rank,temp.rights);
}

Good idea, we could use more gang servers.

[clarke119]

Haha, I laughed at them two comments:L - Anyone know how to fix this then?

[Tim_Rocks]

I know what the issue is, if you want help I'll do so later. My iPhone makes it difficult to help right now.

should be

PHP Code:

 temp.rank = rank1.text;
 temp.rights = rights1.text; 


It might be because it's just a part of the code and you cutted stuff out but you also forgot the closing bracket } for the onCreated() part.

You also should give your guis another naming. Check this thread for some help
