Modification Help / Client viewing through the eyes of a other client.

« on: September 26, 2010, 10:06:15 PM »

Due to a recent Hard-Drive crash I lost a part of my script. I just coded this yesterday but I can't get it to work again for the life of me.

With the following code the "vic" is able to see through my eyes but upon clicking/jumping/calling onTrigger it sets the camera back to normal. I'm guessing that I need to block the inputs for the player but I can't figure out the correct variables to do so.

Code: [Select]

       
//vic is the player hit by a projectile.
//client is the client firing the projectile
%vic.client.camera.setMode("Corpse",%client.player);
%client.player.setControlObject(%vic.client.camera);

Modification Help / AIPlayer Path Finding/Wall Detection

« on: April 24, 2010, 05:28:18 PM »

My issue is that the AIPlayer runs towards a wall and either gets stuck in a corner, or decides to be handicapped and change directions.

How would I go about making the AIPlayer turn away from/follow the wall when isObject(%raycast) is true. I can't seem to find any code that relates to this problem.

Code: [Select]

function AIPlayer::randomMove(%player,%z)
{
	%loc = vectorAdd(%player.getTransform(),getRandom(-25,25) SPC getRandom(-25,25) SPC %z);
	%vec = VectorDist(%player.SpawnPos, %player.gettransform());
	
	%EyeVector = %player.getEyeVector();
	%EyePoint = %player.getEyePoint();
	%Range = 2;
	%RangeScale = VectorScale(%EyeVector, %Range);
	%RangeEnd = VectorAdd(%EyePoint, %RangeScale);

	%raycast = containerRayCast(%eyePoint,%RangeEnd,$TypeMasks::FxBrickObjectType, %player);
	if(isObject(%raycast))
	{
		if(vectorDist(%player.PrevLoc,%player.position) < 2)
		{
			%player.BotJump();
		}
           //Make the bot turn here?
	}
	
	%player.setMoveDestination(%loc);
}

Modification Help / File Writing - Overwrite

« on: December 25, 2009, 10:01:27 PM »

Well, I made an easy Npc spawn creator. When I already have an initial spawn in the list and I attempt to create another the following happens.

Pre-Result:

1 - This is the spawncount.
Trader PosX PosY PosZ - This is normal.

After adding another spawn Result:

2
Orc PosX PosY PosZ - Trader is overwritten by Orc.
Orc PosX PosY PosZ - Orc is placed on the last line as well.

Well, I know how this happens but have no idea how to fix it without assigning a specific Global variable to each spawn, which I would rather not do.

Command:

Code: [Select]

function serverCmdNPCSpawn(%client,%type)
{
	%Pos = %client.player.getPosition();
	%file = new FileObject();
	%file.openForWrite("Config/Server/Medieval/NPC/Spawns.txt");
	$SpawnCount += 1;
	%file.writeline($SpawnCount);

	while(%Saved <= $SpawnCount)
	{
		%Saved += 1;
		%file.writeline(%Type SPC %Pos);
	}

	%Saved = 0;
	%file.close();
	%file.delete();
}

Modification Help / ServerSided Variable -> ClientSided

« on: December 22, 2009, 05:02:49 PM »

So, I began to create my dynamic inventory today. The only problem I've come in contact with is getting the "Amount" of a variable the player has.

My issue is that %Amt returns 0.

Server Side:

Code: [Select]

$RoleplayLightOn = 0;
package Inv
{
	function serverCmdLight(%client)
	{
		if($RoleplayLightOn == 1)
		{
			parent::ServerCmdLight(%client);
		}
		else
		{
			commandToClient(%client,'OpenInvMenu');
		}
	}
};
activatePackage(Inv);


function serverCmdGetResources(%client)
{
	while(%Set < $MaxInvItems)
	{
		%Set += 1;
		%type = $InvItem[%Set];
		%amt = %client.Roleplay[%type];
		commandToClient(%client,'SetRPItems',%type,%amt);
	}
}

Client Side:

Code: [Select]

$InvItem[1] = "CopperOre";
$InvItem[2] = "IronOre";
$MaxInvItems = 2;

function clientCmdOpenInvMenu(%this)
{
	while(%UT < $MaxInvItems)
	{
		%UT += 1;
		%Obj = $InvItem[%UT];

		echo("Object: " @ %Obj);
		%Amt = serverCmdGetResource(%Obj);
		echo("Amount: " @ %type);

		if(%type > 0)
		{
			InvTextList.addRow(%UT, %obj TAB %amt);
		}
	}
	canvas.pushDialog(Medieval_Inventory);
}

Modification Help / AIPlayer Shadows & MountedImage

« on: December 21, 2009, 02:30:25 AM »

Well, I recently made a Monster system for my roleplay. But for some odd reason when I mount an image to the AIPlayer and set all of the nodes to "0" alpha, the mounted model has invisible gaps in the model where the players body parts are, Example: You can see a hand in the mountedImage.

Also, you can see the AIPlayer shadow.

Are there any fixes that can be applied to this, or a workaround for the matter.

Code: [Select]

datablock ShapeBaseImageData(RPSpider) 
{
     shapeFile = "./Shapes/Monster/Spider.dts";
     emap = false;
     mountPoint = $PantsSlot;
     offset = "0 0 -1.8"; // Set the model to the ground based on the Bot PantSlot.
     eyeOffset = "0 0 0";
     rotation = "0 0 0 0 0";
     className = "itemimage"; 
};

if(%F $= "Spider")
{	
		%Mob.setNodeColor("ALL","0 0 0 0");
		%Mob.mountImage(RPSpider,$PantsSlot);
}

Modification Help / Dynamic Gui Menu(s)

« on: December 18, 2009, 01:41:17 AM »

Well, I've found my self in need of creating both an Inventory and a Vendor GUI, yet I have little to no idea of how to make the menu Dynamically add items and such. Also, I can create the buttons and the functions for them but I have utterly no idea on how I would create windows like the following picture displays.

Key:
Blue = Traders Menu, E.G $TraderItem1["Trader"] = "CopperSword";
Red = Players Inventory, E.G CopperSwordx13
White = Item Info, E.G $ItemPrice = 50; $ItemName = "CopperSword".


Pic: Yes, I know the picture looks like stuff.
