Item Spawn

[Emera]

I am trying to make an item spawner. I am making it create an NPC at my mouses x and y, and when it is touched, it adds the weapon to the player and destroys itself. However, I can't get it to work. When I fire the weapon, it puts the NPC with the image bcalarmclock.png, and it changes the chat to the players chat. That is all done on created. In the class, this is what I have...

PHP Code:

//Works
function onCreated() {
  setimg("block.png");
  this.chat = text;
}
//Doesn't work
function onPlayerTouchsMe() {
  addweapon(this.chat);
  player.chat = "Green";
  destroy();
} 


Any suggestions?
I think it is something to do with the PlayerTouchsMe

How would the class know you're touching the NPC in the first place?

Nvm now I fixed it. Thanks anyway.

Try giving it a shape:

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
  this.image = "block.png";
  setshape(1,32,32);
}

When you touch it, it destroys on your screen, but not on other players. X_X

Class

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
  setimg("block.png");
  this.chat = text;
  setshape(1,32,32);
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerTouchsMe() {
  addweapon(this.chat);
  destroy();
} 


Weapon

PHP Code:

function onActionServerSide() {
  if (params[0] == "spawn") {
    temp.npc = putnpc2(params[1],params[2], "join(\"emera_spawn\");");
    text = params[3];
  }
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerChats() {
  if (player.chat.starts("/spawn ")) {
    triggerserver("gui",this.name,"spawn",mousex,mousey,player.chat.substring(7));
  }
}

Whenever I try to execute playertouchsme serverside it doesn't work though.

[fowlplay4]

player.addweapon() is a server-side function, and destroying it on the client-side will only destroying it on your client (screen).

Removing //#CLIENTSIDE should make it work the way you want.

playertouchsme is clientside? also what fp4 said sounds just about right anyway

Then the block doesn't even destroy. It doesn't work if I remove the clientside above onPlayerTouchsMe

function onPlayerTouchsme() will work serverside in everything but a weapon, but for what you are describing you should be using a class anyway.

Have you tried putting echoes in relevant locations to try to find the problem?
