We are also looking together to put together a Quality Assurance team that can work directly with developers for bug spotting and testing prior to release. The finite details of this group are still in the works, but there will be more to come on that later.
Hey, it's really cool that you're learning TorqueScript, and you should definitely keep doing it, but it's generally not a good idea to upload your first add-on to the forums.
Here's a great Discord for making content for Blockland. There are many people on there you could ask if you get stuck on something, or if you just want feedback on what you've made.
Remove that link or fix the functions below. You are using eval which can be easily exploited. I also have a feeling this gives out eval errors with people having spaces in their names. Use stuff like $DeathSchedule::Name[%client.getPlayerName()]
Here is your main problem.
function endDeathTimer(%client)
{
eval("if (isEventPending($" @ %client.getPlayerName() @ "::DeathSchedule)) { cancel($" @ %client.getPlayerName() @ "::DeathSchedule); }");
%client.DeathTimer = "";
%client.bottomPrint("", 0.01); //removes the bottomprint
}
function startDeathTimer(%client)
{
if (%client.player && %client.player.getDamagePercent() < 1) //if player exists and player is not dead, then
{
%client.DeathTimer = 10; //initializing
%client.bottomPrint("\c5Time to re-enter vehicle: " @ %client.DeathTimer);
eval("%client = " @ %client @ "; if (isEventPending($" @ %client.getPlayerName() @ "::DeathSchedule)) { cancel($" @ %client.getPlayerName( @ "::DeathSchedule); } $" @ %client.getPlayerName() @ "::DeathSchedule = schedule(1000, %client, decrementDeathTimer, %client);"); //we do cancel here because onUnmount actually runs a LOT of times at once, so this makes the schedule not repeat. thanks Blockland.
}
}
function decrementDeathTimer(%client)
{
if (%client.player)
{
if (%client.DeathTimer > 0 && %client.player.getDamagePercent() < 1) //if player exists, not already mounted, and player is not dead, then
{
%client.DeathTimer--; //decrement timer
%client.bottomPrint("\c5Time to re-enter vehicle: " @ %client.DeathTimer);
eval("%client = " @ %client @ "; $" @ %client.getPlayerName() @ "::DeathSchedule = schedule(1000, %client, decrementDeathTimer, %client);");
}
else
{
if (%client.player.getDamagePercent() < 1 && (%client.DeathTimer !$= ""))
{
%client.player.kill();
}
endDeathTimer(%client);
}
}
else
{
endDeathTimer(%client);
}
}
Tip on using eval: Avoid it unless you REALLY need to use it - there are many ways of doing what you tried to do in eval without using eval
Eval is extremely dangerous if there is a tiny mistake in it
I made one of these like 5 years ago but maybe this one is better

As the saying goes, no pix no clixActually, Thorfin, I think this is one of those old-style roleplays. With just text and stuff. Not a server. Crazy, right?
