How to make an OnPlayerTouchBrick kind of script(not events)

[Reinforcements]

Yo,

I'm new to scripting, but not new to programming. I want to make an if statement that, when the player touches the brick, something will happen. I'm editing a mod for all of you who say, theres already a OnPlayerTouch event. Events wouldn't be practical for what I'm doing. I just don't know how. I'd appreciate the help.


         Thanks,

I would check the Cops and Robbers or CTF scripts..

Package PlayerTouchOverride//You need to override the method
{
    function FXDTSBrick::onPlayerTouch(%player)
    {
        //You can add you script here
        Parent::onPlayerTouch(%player);//initializes the call to its parents
    }
};//don't forget the ;
activatePackage(PlayerTouchOverride);//activate the package to use the function

Thanks guys, which one do I use? Also what exactly does this mean?

Code: [Select]

    function FXDTSBrick::onPlayerTouch(%player)

Is this if the player touches any brick? I'm not sure how to apply it. You see, I want to mod the infinite mining mod so when the player touches a brick, it gets mined, but I want the player to be able to type something like "/touchmine"(I already know the server commands BTW) and he will be able to "touch mine" for like 10 sec.(when he touches a brick, it gets mined) So how would I apply this code so every ore/dirt brick the player touches gets mined for like 10 sec after the player says /touchmine?

With the package you just "add" a piece of coding to the existing OnPlayerTouch (function FXDTSBrick::onPlayerTouch(%player))

So using a package, You would just add some if statements to check:
1. The player used the /touchmine
2. The brick is an ore brick (Not sure how to, check the mining mod for this)
and the code to add the ore.

Hope that helped..

I'll try it. Thanks!

fxDTSBrick::onPlayerTouch is only called for bricks which have got events applied to them - for performance enhancement.

So how would I make it so only ore/dirt form the infinite mining mod(your mod) gets mined when the player touches it?

Code: [Select]

function gunProjectile::onCollision(%this, %obj, %col, %fade, %pos, %normal)
{

    parent::onCollision(%this, %obj, %col, %fade, %pos, %normal);
    if(%obj.client.isAdmin)
Dig_mineBrick(%obj, %col, %pos);
}
This is from your mod, I want something like this, except that when the player touches it, it gets mined.

EDIT: it didn't work BTW, thanks for trying guys

I tried this, but it didn't work.

Code: [Select]

function player::onCollision(%this, %obj, %col, %fade, %pos, %normal)
{

    parent::onCollision(%this, %obj, %col, %fade, %pos, %normal);
    if(%obj.client.isAdmin)
Dig_mineBrick(%obj, %col, %pos);
}

I just spent ages looking for that quote to put here then it turns out you already had.
