Request: Playerenters

[Bl0nkt]

Can this event/function be called when a player logs on in a room please? It'd be so useful at times.

[Warcaptain]

It should be called when a player enters a room for any reason, even if its because they just logged on.

Does it not already do this?

[Bl0nkt]

It doesn't call it when you login in that room.

[Admins]

It should

[Bl0nkt]

Here's an example.

Pic 1 - I enter the room. When playerenters it loads those tiledefs.
Pic 2 - I reconnect in that same room. Notice the tiledefs not loading.

I can find other examples if need be.

[Warcaptain]

Perhaps it is not loading the tiledefs right then, you should try debugging it with some echo() in the playerenters

ie:

PHP Code:

function onPlayerEnters(){
  echo("welcome to the room");
} 


enter the room normally and by logging on and appearing in that room and seeing if it echo's that

btw, echo is your best friend for debugging, use it.

Oddly enough, that worked both serverside and clientside. However, I've had difficulty using playerenters when trying to add weapons to a player entering the level.

That is because Era's login routine clears weapons out and readds them as necessary during logon. You are probably adding them before the routine finishes.

is tyhere another function or command like onPlayerLogin you could also use?
