Triggering plant errors in script

[Treynolds416]

How do I get a brick plant error to display to a specific client?

Before you ask, I did trace. I found two things: clientCmdServerMessage(22 MsgPlantError_Float) and handlePlantError(same argument)
I tried handlePlantError("22 MsgPlantError_Float") first. It did the right thing, but it sent the plant error to all of the connected clients. I then tried clientCmdServerMessage("22 MsgPlantError_Float") and then commandToClient(%client,"ServerMessage","22 MsgPlantError_Float"), neither did anything that I could see.

Could someone that actually knows about this tell me what to do?

Did you do a trace from the server or the client?
This is important.

ninja: also, all clientcmds have to be surrounded in single quotes ('), not double quotes (").

Pretty sure it was a trace from the server, I was the host. I will also be using this for a server mod

Allright, try doing the trace from the client and tell me the results.

Well then do it when you get on your desktop or laptop or bedtop or whatever your blockland computer is ._.

Try this:
commandToClient(%client,'ServerMessage','MsgPlantError_Float');

[Port]

Try this:
messageClient( %client, 'MsgPlantError_Float' );

Try this:
commandToClient(%client,'ServerMessage','MsgPlantError_Float');

Try this:
messageClient( %client, 'MsgPlantError_Float' );

Both work fine
I feel like Greek's is better because the server does the actual error stuff, while port's just sends the message without handling.

messageClient( arg0, arg1, ..., argN ) is just an alias for commandToClient( arg0, 'ServerMessage', arg1, ..., argN ) anyway.

Yes, our methods are one and the same.

Well ok then, case closed
