Message System

[killerogue]

My first time ever really making a message system. And I have a simple problem. Players can't see other players chat. They can see their own chat. But not OTHER player's chats.

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  this.stdmsgtime = 5;
  this.msglimit = 6;
  player.msgs.clear();

  onTimeout();
}

function onPlayerChats() {
  if (player.chat != "") {
    if (!player.chat.starts("/global") && !player.chat.starts("/whisper")) {
      addMsg({"local", player.account, player.chat});
    }
  }
}

public function addMsg(msginfo) {
  switch (msginfo[0]) {
    case "local":
      for (pl : players) {
        if (pl.level != null || pl.account == player.account) {
          temp.msg = "(Local) " @ msginfo[1] @ " says: " @ msginfo[2];
          with (findplayer(pl.account)) {
            msgs.add({thiso.stdmsgtime, temp.msg});
            msgupdate = true;
          }
        }
      }
    break;
  }
}

function onTimeout() {
  updateTime();
  if (player.msgupdate == true) {
    updateText();
  }
  setTimer(1);
}

function updateTime() {
  if (player.msgs != null) {
    for (i = 0; i < player.msgs.size(); i++) {
      if (player.msgs[i][0] > 0) {
        player.msgs[i][0]--;
      }
      else if (player.msgs[i][0] != -1 && player.msgs[i][0] < 1) {
        player.msgs.delete(i);
        player.msgupdate = true;
      }
    }
  }
}

function updateText() {
  hideimgs(200, 207);
  if (player.msgs != null) {
    if (player.msgs.size() >  this.msglimit) {
      player.msgs = null;
      player.msgupdate = true;
    }
    else {
      for (i = 0; i < player.msgs.size(); i++) {
        if (player.msgs[i] != null) {
          showtext(200 + i, 5, (GraalControl.height - 25) - (18 * i), "Arial", "", player.msgs[i][1]);
          changeimgvis(200 + i, 5);
          changeimgzoom(200 + i, 0.5);
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

You need to send messages to other players through the serverside, doing it clientside is only getting their player object as its shown to you.
