[Event] - setMinigame

[tetronaught]

Set's the clients minigame [SLAYER ONLY]

Example:
You have a slayer game named "test" and you want people who click on a button to join that minigame, onActivate -> self -> setMinigame -> test (name of minigame goes in the paremeter box)
always make sure there are no two minigames the same name, as that will cause conflicts.

Nuff' said here it is:

why does it say the file is an executable jar from firefox
does it say that from all zips and im just stupid or is this actually a jar file
btw shouldn't it be client - > setminigame

Why?

I don't think there is any other way to do it in the events, you can't do it in Minigame if they don't have one.

Then where would it go?

[Boink!]

Then where would it go?

what do you mean where would it go
onactivate - client - setminigame - name. oh well i can care less

He's actually right. "self" is the brick that was activated. Bricks can't join minigames.

It should either be client or player

I tried using "Client -> setMinigame" but it didn't work properly as I wanted it to , but anyway it doesn't
matter if it used "self" since it still gives the client who clicked it, and therefore it will still work.

Neat.

Is there a leave minigame or transfer mini game set?

[tetronaught]

Not for leaving (yet), but to transfer to minigame:

just do onActivate -> self -> setMinigame -> NameOfMinigameYouWantToTranferToGoesHere

[SWAT One]

Oh, okay.  Cool.

[tetronaught]

Oh, okay.  Cool.

Update:

There is now a minigame pack containing a new event that removes the client from the minigame:

how do you use event add-ons wrong

Using events wrong is up to opinion, but I would describe it as using it to endorse an already tired concept instead of doing something new.

Most likely an event like this will be used by players just for stuffs and giggles or not at all instead of being used to make multi layered complex minigames as it should.
