Well since i only have 1 post a day ...

Maloria:
1. In space wars for some reason players with V4 their animations are not replaced after playing 1-2 times

2. [Being Fixed] and their props stay the same even though they are supposed to be changed by an NPC on entering.

I think there is a sharing violation here :

NPC Code:

---

  setstring this.props,"#s(this.head)","#s(this.body)","#s(thi  s.shield)","#s(this.hat)","#s(this.cskin)","#s(thi  s.ccoat)","#s(this.csleeves)","#s(this.cshoes)","#  s(this.cbelt)";

---

I'm guessing some of those this.blah's are now reserved in V4 to get char props that weren't assigned in V2 ? I know i had problems using a similar sys in GS2 on Dev. Or is it something else?

3. Also lance was experiencing trouble as well as a few other V4 users in the jump n slide event saying that they could not jump the distance that v2 people could nor could they slide through some of the obstacles. NO clue here =D

I'll report more when I'm at home I'm @ school now and still sick

[edit]
Well you say it's on old server it's using old scripting but those str's are messing up , well I assume it is them so..
i guess I have to change those strings *sigh* lots of fixing.

this.head, this.body and this.shield cannot be modified since they are already used for the head, body and shield of the current object. Normally that shouldn't be hard to test though, if the server is using old scripting then v4 is using old scripting, if the server is using new scripting then you should normally have Gold/VIP to login to your server.

The properties 'head', 'body', 'shield', 'hat', 'cskin', 'ccoat', 'csleeves', 'cshoes', and 'cbelt' are predefined to the NPC, as in, they exist and can't be modified, somewhat like timevar or timevar2. Adding a 'this' in front of them no longer makes a new variable, as it did in GS1. In GS2, the prefix 'this' only means that the property or variable after it is going to that current NPC or current target, instead of making a brand new var. Yeah, this does get annoying because of some access violation errors that can crash Graal, as I've seen countless times (Like Calani's scripts, for example :P)

Anyway, throw all of your files into a folder and use a program like ArtMoney or something to rename every instance of 'this.head' to 'this.malhead' or something. Or, I could try to learn enough C++ to make a dynamic replacer application thingey.

Make two of them. One in GS2, one in GS1, and have them for v3/v4<3 and v2, respectively. v4 has a much stricter scripting tolerance, so it can't exactly run everything you throw at it, and v3 is just plain ugly. When v2 is disabled, add a script into your ControlNPC that disables v3 as well, and everyone will need to use v4, so yea, that'll eventually solve the problem.

Trying to modify those variables shouldn't cause errors; can you give any examples?
