Join Event

[Mattehy]

PHP Code:

function onActionServerside(command, acct) {
  switch (command) {
    case "Host":
    sendtorc(params[2]@" is hosting "@params[1]@"!");
    player.chat = "Hosted Event: "@params[1]@"!";
    serverr.event = params[1];
    break;
        case "End":
    sendtorc(params[1]@" has ended "@serverr.event@"!");
    player.chat = "Event Ended!";
    serverr.event = "";
    break;
            case "Join":
    setlevel2(this.(serverr.event@"_event")[0],this.(serverr.event@"_event")[1],this.(serverr.event@"_event")[2]);
    break;
    }
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated()
{
this.allowevents = {"OSL"};
this.OSL_event = {"haven-osl.nw",30,30};
}
function onPlayerChats()
{
if(player.chat.starts(":hostevent ")){
    temp.tokens = player.chat.tokenize();
    temp.event = temp.tokens[1];
    if(temp.event in this.allowevents) triggerserver("gui", name, "Host", temp.event, player.account);
    else player.chat = "Invalid Event!";
}
if(player.chat.starts(":endevent")){
    temp.tokens = player.chat.tokenize();
    temp.event = temp.tokens[1];
    if(serverr.event != "") triggerserver("gui", name, "End", player.account);
    else player.chat = "Their is no event going on!";
}
if(player.chat.starts(":joinevent")){
    if(serverr.event != "") triggerserver("gui", name, "Join");
    else player.chat = "Their is no event going on!";
}
} 


How would i get this to work?
i do have the rest of the script i just dont know why the setlevel2 doesnt work x.x i changed it to player.level and etc. and still doesnt work but works when i change the first thing to "haven-osl.nw" why doesnt it work with this.(serverr.event@"_event")[0].

Isn't that from Doomsday? Anyhow- we'd generally need to see the full code, as far as I can see it should work (the setlevel2).

Well, you're sending a trigger to the serverside which consists of the event name and the event hosters account. Setlevel2 consists of three params, being in this order

setlevel2( "levelname.nw", positionx, positiony)

I hope this helps

[Mattehy]

actually i know what setlevel does and how to use it i just want to know why it doesn't work

[screen_name]

setlevel2(this.(serverr.event@"_event")[0],this.(serverr.event@"_event")[1],this.(serverr.event@"_event")[2]);

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this.(serverr.event@"_event") is this.serverr.event_event? If so, you don't have a string by that name.

[Mattehy]

doesnt matter strings dont read ()

You're calling this
triggerserver("gui", name, "Host", temp.event, player.account);

Which is setting this
serverr.event = params[1];

Which is setting basically the players first chat token...

What you could do is make a list of events, ie

function onCreated() {
  this.events_list = {
    {"OSL", "Startlevel.nw", 30, 30},
    {"Fishing", "fishlevel.nw", 25, 25},
    {"spar", "Sparlevel.nw", 35, 35}
  };
}

First is your description, ie OSL, Fishing or spar. Now do the players chat

if(player.chat.starts(":hostevent ")){
  temp.tokens = player.chat.tokenize();
  temp.event = temp.tokens[1];
    
  for (temp.i: this.events_list) {
    if (temp.event = temp.i[0]) {
      temp.found = temp.i;
      break;
    }
  }
  if (temp.found == false) {
    //The event isn't found!
  }
  temp.event.delete(0); //delete the event description
  triggerserver("gui", name, "Host", temp.event, player.account);
}

All you now need to say is ':hostevent spar', ':hostevent Fishing' or ':hostevent OSL'. Hope this helps.

For example, if serverr.event was "race", the variable would be this.race_event.

Also, sid.gottlieb, please stop posting full scripts for him to use. You evidently aren't helping him.

Okay, exactly what are you trying to accomplish with this.(serverr.event@"_event")??
1. Adding _event the flags value?
2. Adding _event to the actual flag name?
Either way, it's incorrect.

Andy has the better idea, even though he should listen to Ibesu.

He's got most of the script, I'm giving him advice on how I'd do it and It's his choice to use it or not. I'm not giving him the full script, as you can see I was giving him an alternative method.

[Mattehy]

that works nicely thanks but still has solved my question about the setlevel2 :/
i was asking why doesnt it doesnt work with the

PHP Code:

this.(serverr.event@"_event")[0] 


that was my question nothing about the :hostevent command but it was good help
and how would it work with

PHP Code:

  this.events_list = {
    {"OSL", "haven-osl.nw", 30, 30}
  }; 


[xXziroXx]

Change

PHP Code:

this.(serverr.event@"_event")[0] 


to

PHP Code:

this.(@serverr.event@"_event")[0] 


[Mattehy]

with

PHP Code:

  this.events_list = {
    {"OSL", "haven-osl.nw", 30, 30}
  }; 


it would be

PHP Code:

setlevel2(this.event_list[1],this.event_list[2],this.event_list[3]); 


but how would i choose that its OSL not another event?

xXZiroXx is correct- just copy&paste it to your code
