"Unable to Find Object" AGAIN

[brickybob]

I named the package asdf, but in the console it refuses to execute because it hates A's.

Code: [Select]

activatepackage(##a##sdf);
What do?

Edit: This happens around the same spot for each name (the first letter, for example; ##g##rapefruit.)[/s]

I'm an idiot.

Code: [Select]

//packaging, yo
package grapefruit
{
   function OnGameConnection::onClientEnterGame(%client)
   {
       %client.gold = 20;    
  }
}[b];[/b]
//end of packaging
activatepackage("grapefruit");

function getgold(%client)
{
%client.bottomPrint(%client.gold, 3);
}
The error is

Code: [Select]

Unable to find object: '' attempting to call function 'bottomPrint'I don't know the best way of getting the object, so I assumed I could assign a variable to the client.

I still want the variable to be client sided and kept on death.

[Chrono]

The problem is BEFORE this line.

[Brian Smithers]

post the code.
remember that packages go like
package name
{
};
activatepackage(name);

NOTICE THE ;.
If thats not there it will break. Also remember to have the right amount of closing brackets

The error is

Code: [Select]

Unable to find object: '' attempting to call function 'bottomPrint'I don't know the best way of getting the object, so I assumed I could assign a variable to the client.

Show us the code where you are calling getgold.

Too many letters so no edit, also I'm using BL 0002 because I was trying to remakes spider's RPG.  Anyone remember that?

Another edit: I'll port it to retail when I get it done, maybe...

[Slicksilver]

I.. I don't know if this is just a huge oversight or what, but you're not providing a client for the %client variable. Of course it's not going to be able to find the object %client, you didn't give it an object to operate on.

I was under the assumption that it would automatically use the client that sent the command.

Parent:: is missing in package

Code: [Select]

package asdf
{
     function GameConnection::autoAdminCheck(%client)
     {
          %client.gold = 20;
          return parent::autoAdminCheck(%client);
     }
};
ActivatePackage(asdf);

function getGold(%client)
{
     if(isobject(%client))
     {
          commandToClient(%client, 'bottomPrint', "Gold: " @ %client.gold);
     }
     else
     {
          error("no client");
     }
}
Untested, typed on phone. To send the gold count, type:
getGold(findclientbyname(Name));

[CityRPG]

function GameConnection::autoAdminCheck

GameConnection is a namespace, not a keyword.

[Scout31]

Whoops, sorry. Again, typed on my phone, and I really wasn't paying attention to that

[Lugnut]

Code: [Select]

function getgold(%client)
{
%client.bottomPrint(%client.gold, 3);
}

make function getgold be
function servercmdgetgold
if you want it as /getgold ingame.

[brickybob]

make function getgold be
function servercmdgetgold
if you want it as /getgold ingame.

well
i know that

[Slicksilver]

I was under the assumption that it would automatically use the client that sent the command.

Well, no. If it was a serverCmd that would be true. In it's current context, getGold is a serverside only function. If you want clients to be able to use it you must make a serverCmdGetGold. Otherwise you can run getGold(findClientByName("BrickyBob")); or some other way to get your client. It doesn't fill in non provided variables.
