Yay!

Oh, so we need to make our own system NPC to check if the functions exist? fun... o_o

Why on Earth would you make a system NPC just to perform "magicFunction".lower() in this.getfunctions()?

[Chandler]

Because functions can be edited, isn't that why Stefan created this...?

I'm confused, and I am not sure where you are going with that.

if ("magicFunction".lower() in this.getfunctions()) tells you if the function magicFunction() has been defined somewhere on the current object (normally the script/NPC). Change the this. to some other object to check if the function is defined in that object instead.

It's only one line, and it certainly does not need a system NPC creating to use it.

[Chandler]

However, we need to add this to each of our system npcs.

What, why?

[Chandler]

To check if the functions actually exist.
If people can edit function names via memory editing, we are checking to see if they exist.
Correct me if I have perceived this thread totally wrong...

There is no real reason to add this to every function call, because the function won't get called anyway if someone has "edited" it by memory editing.

The main use for it I guess is checking if functions are present from joined classes or so.

Please do correct me if I'm wrong, but I've always been told EVERYTHING clientsided can be edited with memory editing - not just function names.

Skyld, I see. object.isinclass isn't good enough

xXZiroXx, kind of, not all.

Clientside = in memory = editable, some things are just harder.

If you have something stupid to say.. don't say it.

Anyway:

Changing onwall/2 makes it so you can walk on walls because it will return false ( no longer exists )

Would be cool if non-existing functions returned like -1.

In that example, it was that!

TGraalVar.hasFunction(functionname);

Stefan has granted your wish, and screwed up getVarNames() in the process.
