Hey,
bin trying to script for the past days, my gold gonna expire in 1 day so i gotta find a quick way to fix it up... so what shall I do? It used to work but I messed and added the /reset command, not working anymore :/ Thanks

// Created by Graal804226
function onMouseDown(mode) {
if (mode == "left") {
Temp.pl = findnearestplayer(mousex, mousey);
Player.chat = format("%s was clicked", temp.pl.communityname);

this.head=player.head;
this.chat=player.chat;
this.body=player.body;
this.nick=player.nick;
this.ap=player.ap;
setcharprop #P1,#P1;
this.ani = player.ani;
this.dir = player.dir;
}
}
if (created) {
showcharacter();
this.head = "head0.png";
this.nick = "Statue";
this.colors[0] = "orange";
this.colors[1] = "white";
this.colors[2] = "blue";
this.colors[3] = "red";
this.colors[4] = "black";
this.shield = "no-shield.png";
this.dir = 2;
setcharani("idle",NULL);
message click on me!;
function onPlayerChats() {
if (player.chat == "/reset") {
this.chat ="reset";
}
if (player.chat !="/reset"){
return;
}
}
}

also somehow, function onCreate() doesn't work here...  

- Didn't even use 'temp.pl' in defining the NPC's looks (example: temp.pl.head)
- Mixing GS1 and GS2
- Nesting another function inside of 'onCreated' for no apparent reason
- What exactly are you trying to do?

Oh thanks about the temp.pl =] completely forgot it...
-I get that alot
-I'll try
-making it once clicked, the attributes will load as the player's  

Are you using this online or offline? If you're using it online I'll help you with a GS2 version.

Online =] yeah sorry for the gs1  

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
  //Makes sure it's a character NPC
  showCharacter();
  
  //Set look before it clones a player
  this.head = "head.png";
  this.body = "body.png";
  this.nick = "unknown";
  this.dir = 2;
}

function onMouseDown(mode) {
  //Only sets if the left mouse button is pressed
  if (mode != "left") return;
  
  //Check if the mouse is over the NPC
  if (mousex in | this.x, this.x + 1.5 | && mousey in | this.y, this.y + 2 |) {
    //Copy the player's features to the NPC
    this.head = player.head;
    this.body = player.body;
    this.shield = player.shield;
    this.colors[0] = player.colors[0];
    this.colors[1] = player.colors[1];
    this.colors[2] = player.colors[2];
    this.colors[3] = player.colors[3];
    this.colors[4] = player.colors[4];
    this.attr[1] = player.attr[1]
    this.nick = player.nick;
    this.ap = player.ap;
  }
} 


That should work. I've commented parts of the code to help you understand it.  

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  showcharacter();
  this.head = "head0.png";
  this.body = "body.png";
  this.nick = "Statue";
  this.colors[0] = "orange";
  this.colors[1] = "white";
  this.colors[2] = "blue";
  this.colors[3] = "red";
  this.colors[4] = "black";
  this.shield = "no-shield.png";
  this.dir = 2;
  setcharani("idle",NULL);
  this.attr[1] = "";
  this.chat = "Click me!";
}

function onMouseDown(mode) {
  if (mode != "left") return;
  temp.pl = findnearestplayer(mousex, mousey);
  player.chat = format("%s was the nearest target", temp.pl.communityname);

  this.head = player.head;
  this.chat = player.chat;
  this.body = player.body;
  this.nick = player.nick;
  this.ap = player.ap;
  this.attr[1] = player.attr[1] //hat
  this.ani = player.ani;
  this.dir = player.dir;
}
function onPlayerChats() {
  if (player.chat == "/reset") this.chat = "reset";
} 


Keep in mind, this will reset whenever the level is updated. To prevent that you could do something like this (very simple and just viewable for you);

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onPlayerEnters() {
  showcharacter();
  if (client.statue_first == NULL) {
    this.head = "head0.png";
    this.body = "body.png";
    this.nick = "Statue";
    this.colors[0] = "orange";
    this.colors[1] = "white";
    this.colors[2] = "blue";
    this.colors[3] = "red";
    this.colors[4] = "black";
    this.shield = "no-shield.png";
    this.dir = 2;
    setcharani("idle",NULL);
    this.attr[1] = "";
    this.chat = "Click me!";
  }
  else {
    this.head = client.statue_first[0];
    this.body = client.statue_first[1];
    this.nick = client.statue_first[2];
    this.colors[0] = client.statue_first[3][0];
    this.colors[1] = client.statue_first[3][1];
    this.colors[2] = client.statue_first[3][2];
    this.colors[3] = client.statue_first[3][3];
    this.colors[4] = client.statue_first[3][4];
    this.shield = client.statue_first[4];
    this.dir = client.statue_first[5];
    setcharani(client.statue_first[6], NULL);
    this.attr[1] = client.statue_first[7];
  }
}

function onMouseDown(mode) {
  if (mode != "left") return;
  client.statue_first = {
    player.head, //head
    player.body, //body
    player.nick, //nickname
    {player.colors[0], player.colors[1], player.colors[2], player.colors[3], player.colors[4]}, //colors
    player.shield, //shield
    player.dir, //direction
    player.ani, //gani
    player.attr[1] //hat
  };
  onPlayerEnters();
}

function onPlayerChats() {
  if (player.chat != "reset") return;
  this.chat = "reset";
  client.statue_first = NULL;
  onPlayerEnters();
  setTimer(2);
}

function onTimeOut() {
  this.chat = "";
} 


Wasnt sure if you want to have your look setted or the other players look. If you want the other players look setted, you could do something like this for the onActionMouseDown()

PHP Code:

function onMouseDown(mode) {
  if (mode != "left") return;
  temp.pl = findNearestPlayer(mousex, mousey);
  if (mousex in |temp.pl.x, temp.pl.x+3| && mousey in |temp.pl.y, temp.pl.y+3|) {
    client.statue_first = {
      temp.pl.head, //head
      temp.pl.body, //body
      temp.pl.nick, //nickname
      {temp.pl.colors[0], temp.pl.colors[1], temp.pl.colors[2], temp.pl.colors[3], temp.pl.colors[4]}, //colors
      temp.pl.shield, //shield
      temp.pl.dir, //direction
      temp.pl.ani, //gani
      temp.pl.attr[1] //hat
    };
    onPlayerEnters();
  }
} 


Yah no clue what I wrote there so ask me if you didnt understand something


Damn Emera was faster but anyway it might help  

Wouldn't you want to be saving them in serverr. variables instead of client variables so they don't change for each player?

Depending on if the statue should be shown clientside or not. Yah maybe the serverr.flags if everyone should see it.

EDIT for John:
To have it viewable for everyone you could simply change the client.statue_first to server.statue_first. That should work aswell and would be viewable for everyone. But probably I'd change it to something serverside than and use serverr.flags since they are more secure and not changeable with memory editors.

This works, but once level updated it changes...

Edit : oh nvm got it fixed!  

If you save statue settings to serverr flags, Skyld will cleanse your server with flame. Server flags are not appropriate for statues at all... What if 1000 statues were added? >: (

If statues absolutely NEED to keep their outfit even when the level is updated/server is restarted, use files.

e.g.

this.statuename = "myhouse_statue1" and then when the outfit is set serverside, save all the variables into a file e.g. statues/myhouse_states1.txt

In the oncreated event, check if the file exists and if it does, load the values from it. Keep it all serverside and then the server won't have to sync Statue outfits for statues in every single damn level with the player

Skyld: he kills it with fire.  

Since its a scripting thread, I need help with the variable commands, for example the ec system, I wanted to make it add on each time I want.

function onCreate() {
this.level.ecteller = this;
}
function onPlayerTouchsMe() {
if (player.account =="Graal804226") {
this.ec=10;
this.chat ="You have"SPC this.ec SPC"EC's";
}
}
function onTest() {
this.ec +=1;
}

I added this on another NPC :

function onPlayerChats() {
if (player.chat=="addec") {
this.level.ecteller.trigger("Test","");
}
}

Thanks...

I will say straight off the bat that you need onCreated and not onCreate. I also don't see why you are using level references and seperate NPCs for that.

But, you should take it to the OGCC and not here at this point.

Are you trying to give players EC? You'll find it won't work if you're giving NPCs the EC using this.ec instead of player.clientr.ec. This is because this. refers to the NPC, and player.clientr. refers to the player's clientr flags. Save the EC to the player's flags to give the player EC.

PHP Code:

player.clientr.ec ++;
//OR
player.clientr.ec += 10; 


Just a note, clientr flags can only be changed on the serverside, but can be read from both the clientside and the serverside, so you'll have to add the EC on the serverside. Also, use php tags to show coding instead of quotes ;)

I doubt you'll be able to understand how to load/save from text files this early on in learning GS2, so here's an example of how to save and load your NPC's configuration to/from a text file. Firstly, you'll have to give your NPC-Server the following right.

rw objects/statues/*.txt

After that, simply add this code to a class and join it to the NPC you wish to make a statue. After that, simply call the loadStatueConfig(); function to load the statue and the saveStatueConfig(); function to save the statue.

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
  showCharacter();
  loadStatueConfig();
}

function loadStatueConfig() {
  this.loadfrom = "objects/statues/statue_" @ this.id @ ".txt";
  temp.config.loadlines(this.loadfrom); 
  
  for (lines : temp.config) {
    this.head = lines[0];
    this.body = lines[1];
    this.shield = lines[2];
    this.sword = lines[3];
    this.colors[0] = lines[4];
    this.colors[1] = lines[5];
    this.colors[2] = lines[6];
    this.colors[3] = lines[7];
    this.colors[4] = lines[8];
  }
}

function saveStatueConfig() {
  this.saveto = "objects/statues/statue_" @ this.id @ ".txt";
  temp.config = {
    this.head,
    this.body,
    this.shield,
    this.sword,
    this.colors[0],
    this.colors[1],
    this.colors[2],
    this.colors[3],
    this.colors[4]
  };
  
  temp.config.savelines(this.saveto, false);
} 


I hope that helped!
