parking space script

[[email protected]]

hi im making this parking script thing where you buy a space for the day and you can park your car there, and it doesnt allow anyone else to do so. I got a problem though, whenever I say /space 1, it is supposed to say Owner: player.account, but it doesnt. Also I think the script is supposed to be serverside, but whenever I make it serverside, anyone can go into the space and its not blockable so i gotta make it clientside. but the problem with it being clientside is that only I can see Ownerlayer.account;

heres the script:

PHP Code:

function onPlayerChats()
 {
if (player.chat == "/space 1")
  {
if (clientr.item.Money>1000)
   {
player.account=this.owner
clientr.item.Money-=1000;
player.addMsg2("You have rented space 1 for the day!");
message Owner: player.account SPC!;

dontblock;
  }
else
player.addMsg2("You do not have enough money to rent a space!");
 }
}

You're assigning the owner variable backwards.

this.variable = this.value;

Also you're mixing GS1 with GS2 again.. I could of sworn we went over this in another thread. Use this.chat instead of message.

this.chat = "whatever you want it to say" SPC player.account;

You can store the account in a attr[], and use that on the clientside to prevent people from walking into it or whatever you want.

Example:

PHP Code:

function onPlayerChats() {
  if (player.chat == "setaccount") {
    this.owner = player.account;
    this.attr[2] = this.owner;
  }
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerTouchsMe() {
  if (this.attr[2] == player.account) player.chat = "You are the owner!";
} 


Using your properly scripted owner flag you can check if someone has rented the space or not with a check like so..

if (this.variable != null) echo("This variable has a value of" SPC this.variable @ "!");

Use a trigger client, basically the same thing as trigger server just backwards

ie.

PHP Code:

function onactionserverside( cmd ) {
  switch( cmd ) {
  
   case "test":
   triggerclient("gui",this.name,"newb");
   break;

  }
 }
 

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onactionclientside( cmd ) {
  switch( cmd ) {
  
   case "newb":
   player.chat = "Not my parking space!";
   break;

  }
 }

This is probably a level NPC, so triggerclient won't work.

just use a triggeraction to compensate. :P

It depends entirely on how he has it set up.

I don't even see why he needs it. onPlayertouchsme() works on serverside too... so... He could also just pass the owner through an attr if that's all he needs for comparing.
