Offline Player Manipulation

Allows you to view and edit variables and the values of offline players while providing compatibility methods to edit them if they're already online.

PHP Code:


		
			
function findplayer2(acct) {

  // Check if Player Online

  temp.obj = findplayer(acct);

  if (temp.obj.level == NULL) {

    // Create Player Object

    temp.obj = new TServerPlayer(@acct);

  }

  return temp.obj;

}



function getPlayerVar(acct, var) {

  // Get Player Object

  temp.obj = findplayer2(acct);

  temp.val = makevar("temp.obj." @ var);

  // Destroy Player Object

  if (temp.obj.level == NULL) temp.obj.destroy();

  // Return Value

  return temp.val;

}



function editPlayerVar(acct, var, value) {

  // Get Player Object

  temp.obj = findplayer2(acct);

  // Check for Array of Variables and Values

  if (var.type() == 3 && var.size() == value.size()) {

    // Change Values

    for (temp.v: var) {

      makevar("temp.obj." @ var) = value[0+temp.i];

      temp.i++;

    }

  } else {

    // Change Single Value

    makevar("temp.obj." @ var) = value;

  }

  // Save Account File

  if (temp.obj.level == NULL) {

    temp.obj.saveaccount();

    temp.obj.destroy();

  }

}

Some example usage..

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() {

  // Accessing Player Variables

  echo(findplayer2("fowlplay4").account); // Echos fowlplay4

  echo(getPlayerVar("fowlplay4", "account")); // Echos -2144485044 on Zodiac

  // Multiple Variable Value Edit

  editPlayerVar("fowlplay4", {"client.a", "client.b"}, {1, 2});

  // Single Variable Value Edit

  editPlayerVar("fowlplay4", "client.c", 3);

}

Important Note when using findplayer2:

You need to call destroy() on the player object after you have used it, when you do new TServerPlayer() it is not automatically destroyed like TStaticVars()

Enjoy! :)

I didn't know you could edit variables of offline players, this is quite awesome. Nice work :).

I thought I explained that to you ages ago.

Anyways, nice job Jerret, it's a good contribution.

Found the saveaccount function today in the new serverside_scriptfunctions.txt

You can even join your classes to it, treat it like an online object, and save it when you're done with it too. (No more trivial edits with /open on scammer's accounts :3)

Nice script.
One problem which needs to be solved: you need to call destroy() on the player object after you have used it, when you do new TServerPlayer() it is not automatically destroyed like TStaticVars()

Nice. You've been cranking out sweet scripts for some time now! Thanks.

Ooo, nice, I didn't know you could manipulate players offline either, will definitely be using this.

Stefan added a findplayer2 (which now accepts both account and community names) function, which kind of breaks my code snippet.

I've since used this code instead of my findplayer2 function:

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() {

  // Load Player

  temp.pl = findplayer(acct);

  temp.offline = temp.pl == NULL;

  temp.pl = temp.offline ? new TServerPlayer(@acct) : temp.pl;

  // Manipulate player object...

  // Save and destroy

  if (temp.offline) {

    temp.pl.saveaccount();

    temp.pl.destroy();

  }

}

How would I use this to remove an offline players weapon? I can't figure out how.

After you have the player loaded (assuming using temp.pl for the player object):

temp.pl.removeweapon("Weapon Name");

Sorry for asking, but I don't really understand your main script too much. If you could explain how I could use this in removing a players weapon I'd be glad. Basically I just don't know where to put this chunk of script :P.

    temp.pl.destroy(); 

  } 

}
