Brick setShapeName script

[Furling]

This very my frist make script for event, this my idea making Brick Message. Here my script code:

Code: [Select]

registerInputEvent(fxDtsBrick,"onBrick","tBrick Brick");
registerOutputEvent(Brick,"setShapeName","string 25 50",0);
registerOutputEvent(Brick,"setShapeNameColor","paintColor 1",0);
registerOutputEvent(Brick,"setShapeNameDistance","int 0 3000 300",0);
package Event_BrickMessage
{
function Brick::setShapeName(%Brick)
{
Parent::setShapeName(%Brick);
{
$inputTarget_Brick = (%Brick);
}
}

function Brick::setShapeNameColor(%Brick,%color,%client)
{
if(getWordCount(%color) == 1)
{
Parent::setShapeNameColor(%Brick,getColorIDTable(%color));
}
else
{
Parent::setShapeNameColor(%Brick,%color);
}
}
 I got this error :

Add-Ons/Event_BrickMessage/server.cs Line: 10 - Syntax error.
>>> Some error context, with ## on sides of error halt:

Your packaging the function Brick::setShapeName(%this)

It should be fxDtsBrick::setShapeName(%this)

Assuming that it is a real method, even though I've never seen it.

Edit: Also, syntax is just wacky here. Didn't take a good look until just now.

Edit2: The syntax error you're getting is right at the opening brackets just after you call the Parent function. Probably just remove the inner set of brackets in your first function and make sure to change Brick to fxDtsBrick. Also, you're not ending the package or activating it.

I don't think it is.
Even if it is, it probably would be blocked from use like it is with players

how I could missed (%this)
 and as for your edit2, part I not understand your english... I should make activating and end packing like this package Event_BrickMessage same both ?

Edit: which I put in fxDtsBrick::setShapeName(%this) where ?

Edit2: I found line 10 is }

Code: [Select]

registerInputEvent(fxDtsBrick,"onBrick","tBrick Brick");
registerOutputEvent(Brick,"setShapeName","string 25 50",0);
registerOutputEvent(Brick,"setShapeNameColor","paintColor 1",0);
registerOutputEvent(Brick,"setShapeNameDistance","int 0 3000 300",0);
package Event_BrickMessage
{
function fxDtsBrick::setShapeName(%this)
{
Parent::setShapeName(%Brick);
{
$inputTarget_Brick = (%Brick);
} <~~Here.
}

function Brick::setShapeNameColor(%Brick,%color,%client)
{
if(getWordCount(%color) == 1)
{
Parent::setShapeNameColor(%Brick,getColorIDTable(%color));
}
else
{
Parent::setShapeNameColor(%Brick,%color);
}
}
Some error context, with ## on sides of error halt:

Code: [Select]

package Event_BrickMessage

{

^function fxDtsBrick::setShapeName(%this)

^{

^^Parent::setShapeName(%Brick);

^^{##

^^^$inputTarget_Brick = (%Brick);

^^}

^}


I fix this edit script:

Code: [Select]

registerInputEvent(fxDtsBrick,"OnBrick","tBrickMessage BrickMessage");
registerOutputEvent(Brick,"setShapeName","string 25 50",0);
registerOutputEvent(Brick,"setShapeNameColor","paintColor 1",0);
registerOutputEvent(Brick,"setShapeNameDistance","int 0 3000 300",0);
package Event_BrickMessage

function fxDtsBrick::setShapeName(%this)
{
Parent::setShapeName(%this);
{
$inputTarget_Brick = (%this);
%this.processInputEvent("OnBrick",%this);
}
}

function Brick::setShapeNameColor(%Brick,%color,%client)
{
if(getWordCount(%color) == 1)
{
Parent::setShapeNameColor(%Brick,getColorIDTable(%color));
}
else
{
Parent::setShapeNameColor(%Brick,%color);
}
}

You need one last curly brace at the end

[Headcrab Zombie]

Yeah, I just checked, there is no fxDTSBrick::setShapeName method.
Meaning this won't work. Something like this would have to be implemented to the engine, which I doubt Badspot would do, since we have print bricks.

still failed, I did add it.
Edit: I removed 2 of curly brace start and end, now there new error:

Code: [Select]

Hint: create a static shape with a name at the brick's position.

I not understand what you try say ? do you mind post here script.

[otto-san]

setShapeName was disabled in v11, wasn't it?

For bots.

For bots.

And players

There is no setShapeName method for bricks, so the way your doing this will never work.
You need to create the function, and have it create a StaticShape, set its position to where the brick is, and then setShapeName on the static shape.

You'll also need to do some other things, like create a variable with the value as the StaticShape, so you can reference it in functions like setShapeNameColor and setShapeNameDistance. You also need to parent onDeath/onRemove so that the StaticShape is deleted when the brick is deleted.
