Perhaps you misunderstand.

When things like this happen, and the uninformed attempt to teach others, we have a world full of scripters who a) write inefficient code, and b) are less willing to believe that they are doing something wrong, which only makes it harder for these problems to be corrected, and creates more unnecessary work for the global scripting team.

He did attempt to help others, but he also stated he "might be wrong", in this case he was. He was just trying to help, he wasn't making a pernament statement of anything.

People who persist in giving bad advice get masked from the scripting forum. Androk, don't say things if you're not sure that they're correct.

I'm still trying to figure out WHAT clientside thing NEEDS to be clientside thing in a LOCAL NPC needs to be sent to the serverside of that NPC? Best to just keep it serverside or clientside x-x

When it was moving, it tried to trigger x and y, but since it was moving all the time, x and y was not the npc.
Now its x+.5 and y+5.

Ah, a simple case of leaping before you look.

I only read the first page, so forgive me if this has been said.

NPCs in a level ARE serverside. NPCs placed with putnpc2 are serverside. In fact, the ONLY way a NPC is not serverside is if it has //#CLIENTSIDE at the top of it. Otherwise, it is serverside. Correct me if I am wrong.

Ok let's go and name all the npc types
This is how I know them anyhow.

Weapon Clientside
Weapon Serverside
Level NPC Serverside
Level NPC Clientside
Putnpc2 Serverside
Putnpc2 Clientside
Database NPC Serverside
Database NPC Clientside
Control NPC Serverside only
Gani Script Clientside only

All of those seem to behave differently depending on what you wanna do and how you wanna reach them.

And it's important to keep straight which one your using.
