setlevel2(); is clientside.

You should check for the event of when the player's dying. Like onPlayerDies().

Then you should trigger the server to set the level.

Also, setlevel2's syntax is:

setlevel2(level name as String, x as float, y as float);

:P

Also, you can't do...

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
  if (playerdead) // yada yaa
} 


That was a GS1 event, in GS2 it's a null temp variable and won't work that way. Also, setlevel2() is used wrong as well. The first parameters for the function should be the level name and then the x and y to place the player at. It also needs to be serverside. I would suggest reading the wiki to try and find a few good tutorials on scripting as well as trying to findout which functions and things are serverside only as such.

Ya...

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
  if (playerdead) // yada yaa
} 


Would assume the player is dead when the NPC is created. Even in GS1, there is the if (playerdies) event for something like this. Other than what's already been repeated... I can't really see what else there is to add.
I suggest studying up on clientside/serverside as well as what are events, booleans and so on.

there is a gs2 function for dieing...

function onPlayerDies(){
//this is the gs2 way
}

I know, hence my comment "event in GS1".

[PrinceOfKenshin]

PHP Code:

function onCreated(){
if (player.hp <= 0 ) { 
setlevel2("hospital.nw",x,y);
} 


simple as that.

[DustyPorViva]

No it's not, again, the player has to have already been dead when the NPC is created.

[Knightmare1]

function onCreated(){
if (player.hp <= 0 ) {
setlevel2("hospital.nw",x,y);
}
}
doesnt work

[Switch]

PHP Code:

function onCreated()
 setTimer(0.05);
function onTimeOut() {
 if (player.hearts < 0.5) {
  setlevel2("hospital.nw",30,30);  //syntax: setlevel2(LevelNameInString,x,y);
 }
} 


That should work without much lag. If there is lag, then use this:

PHP Code:

function onPlayerDies() {  //I don't know if this is a real command, but Codein said there was one.
 setlevel2("hospital.nw",30,30);  //syntax: setlevel2(LevelNameInString,x,y);
}

Okay then, use this on that I posted above xD:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerDies() {  //function for when the player dies
 setlevel2("hospital.nw",30,30);  //syntax: setlevel2(LevelNameInString,x,y);
}

} 


setlevel2 won't work on the clientside, it did work before gs2, but no longer..

I thought NPC-Server would have caused the change: not the language

The first one won't work because that's serverside, and usually when a serverside script is initialized it is not in the scope of the player.

Isn't onPlayerDies clientside only? If it is that won't work either becauset setlevel2() is serverside only.

[Crow]

PHP Code:

function onActionServerSide() {
  switch (params[0]) {
    case "dead":
      setlevel2(level,x,y);
    break;
  }
}
function onCreated()
  setshape(1,32,32);
//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  setshape(1,32,32);
  dontblock();
  onTimeOut();
}
function onTimeOut() {
  if (player.hearts < .5)
    triggeraction(x + 1,y + 1,"serverside","dead");

  setTimer(.05);
} 


Not tested, don't hurt me if it doesnt work ;[

onPlayerDies is both, however, they act differently.

On clientside, it triggers when the actual player dies. On serverside, it triggers when anybody dies :P

It'll set the level but I doubt you want to go to the hospital when someone else dies.

As I said, check for when the player dies, trigger to serverside and then set the level.

Looking back at this thread since the recent posts.
I forgot to use //#CLIENTSIDE stuff xD Also I recently, like, 2 weeks ago found out setlevel2() was serverside I R STOOPID.

if you're creating the script on a single level, that's fine. if you want to automatically warp the player to the hospital whenever he/she dies in any level, one way of doing this is by adding it to players as a weapon script, which is added to all players when they log in.

how i'd personally do this is incorporate it inside a weapon script file. basically what i have is a custom GUI and it handles 3 things: updating GUI, checking player's heart count and warp them to OSL if their heart count is 0 and display event warper when an event is going on.

if (playerenters) {
toweapons -spawn;
}

if (playerdies){
sleep 0.1;
setlevel2 levelname.nw,x,y;
}

that's what i use for re spawning but my world is offline and i don't have a npc server so it may not work for you

1) That isn't setup right.
2) There's no distinct client/server side to this script.

He said he is using it offline...

Oh I didn't see that...

Edit:
No, he said his SERVER is offline and has no NPC Control. He said he USES it.

Ok Switch, again, slowly, just for you. He said his world is offline. He also said he doesnt have an npc server. So if you add those two, what does that mean? Right! He has no playerworld, he makes things offline, in the editor! I never said he doesnt use it btw...

yes @ crow
