Online Time Variable

[Loakey_P2P]

first off ill explain what im trying to do , then ill explain the trouble im having . shaded legend use to have an event prize that was called "noob detector" . this npc while touching another player generated a random number then show text next to the player you were touching . the text looked like this

"50% noob"

as ive said the old one generated a random percentage number . what id like to do is make it check the players online time for this server . then depending on that , give a percentage . the problem im having is accessing that variable . ive tryed old code as well as new code to find it but ive been unsucessfull . id like to do it in new code but if i cant ill resort to GS1 . ive tryed playeronlinetime , onlinetime , playertime but i cant get the right number . has anyone tryed to access this variable and been sucessfull ?

yes, I remember this, it's like player.onlinesecs or something

TServerPlayer.onlinetime

So you would use something like findplayer("Inverness").onlinetime

Or simply player.onlinetime.

Sorry but is there a clientside version?

For online seconds? Should be the same. If that doesn't work for other players then it's probably not synced with the clientside for all players.

No but you could set a clientr/client variable and use:

player.onlinetime = clientr.login_onlinetime + (timevar2 - this.login_timevar2);

Serverside:
clientr.login_onlinetime = player.onlinetime;

Clientside:
this.login_timevar2 = timevar2;

It won't be perfectly precise (may vary by a few seconds), but close enough for what you plan to do I bet.
