destroy();

[theHAWKER]

Ive made a target system, but the targets keep responing, making the targets not disapear and reapear x.x

i need it to destroy every time a player enters and then recreate one.

this is my script:

PHP Code:

//NPC Made By *theHAWKER
function onPlayerChats(){
if (clientr.staff = true){
if (player.chat = "destroy"){
destroy();
}
}
}
function onCreated(){
  setshape(1,32,48);
  setimg("gl_target.png");
  this.chat = "Shoot Me!";
  setTimer(.1);
}
function onActionAdd(){
  with(findplayer(params[0])){
    player.rupees += int(random(0,20));
  }
}
function onTimeout(){
hide();
sleep(random(1,3));
show();
sleep(random(1,3));
  setTimer(.3);
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
function onWasShot(){
  this.chat = "Hit!";
  triggerserver("gui","-System","addrupees",player.account,int(random(0,20)));
  sleep(.5);
  this.chat = "Shoot Me!";
}

[theHAWKER]

umm, i need a script like
function onPlayerEnters(){
destroy():
sleep(.1);
onCreated();
}

but that wont work x.x

[DustyPorViva]

O.o that won't work. You can't call a function in a script that isn't there.
Instead of destroying it, set some kind of check to see if it is active or not(inactive on creation, active when told to be).

Just do something like:

NPC Code:

---

function doWhatever() {

  hide();

  sleep(0.1);

  temp.n = putnpc2(x,y,"");

  n.join("whatever");

  destroy();

}

---

When you call destroy, it IMMEDIATELY stops the script (like return).

it puts and npc at x and y, and makes n scope to the object that was dropped to x,y

n.join() - n scopes to the dropped npc, so it makes the dropped npc at x,y join a the class "whatever"

Stop telling people to do that, its not the right way, thats only used inside a with block.

theHAWKER, perhaps you should stop for a second, take a deep breath and ask yourself the question:

Am I in over my head?

doWhatever() was a function I made up on the spot. It's not "in" anything because function definitions can't be nested inside each other. You can call it whatever (onCreated, onPlayerEnters, onImaCheeseBurger), I just was giving you an example.
