TProjectile.destroy()

[salesman]

does not seem to work.

I know I'm getting the projectile correctly because echoing the projectile's data works just fine...it just won't let me kill it!

PHP Code:

temp.proj = player.level.projectiles[temp.ind];
echo(temp.proj.objectType()); // echoes TProjectile
echo(temp.proj.params); // echoes properly as well
temp.proj.destroy(); // doesn't work, but sometimes produces an error.

I think projectiles are read-only?

Not everything on serverside, and /scripthelp says I should be able to destroy it.

Script help for 'projectile':
TProjectile.destroy()

You can even grab a projectile and change its parameters if you want:

PHP Code:

echo(temp.proj.params); // echoes {20, account, etc}
temp.proj.params = "test";
echo(temp.proj.params); // echoes "test"

Are you trying to destroy clientside or serverside?

I can't imagine why it would work serverside. Projectiles are handled completely clientside after shot and aren't synced with serverside.

hmm, you're right. I just tested it. I can change the values of the params, but when it hits something and calls onActionProjectile() on the clientside, it still has the old parameters.

I thought maybe it was synced like clientr.vars or something.

Guess I'll be using custom projectiles =p
