Get Client Points?

[Jeep]

How would one retrieve how many points a client has? This has to be client-sided, not server-sided.

For example, echo that Jeep has X amount of points.

can't find the goddamned post i want...

loop through the lines in the player list gui you get when you press f2.

then getField()
on the one you want. 0 is the SA/A part, 1 is the name, 2 is bl_id (?), 3 is score(?)

To find out the control look through tree();
Alternatively, just grab the mission editor and do it that way.

%client.score?
Didn't see the client-sided part.

[Port]

NPL_List.

So what function is called for the player list score? I know there is newPlayerListGUI::updateScore(%this, %client, %score) but that is only called when the player list is opened.

[Port]

None. Just read the value from the list.

None. Just read the value from the list.

But is there a function for when that happens?

Code: [Select]

function getscore(%name)
{
for(%a=0; %a<npl_list.rowcount(); %a++)
{
if(getfield(npl_list.getrowtext(%a), 1) $= %name)
return getfield(npl_list.getrowtext(%a), 2);
}
return -1;
}

He wants to know if there's a function thats called the MOMENT a players score is changed.

Once in a while, open and instantly close the player GUI by script. Check newPlayerListGUI::updateScore(%this, %client, %score) stuff.

Is there a function called instantly when your score changes?

[Lugnut]

Is there a function called instantly when your score changes?

when it changes on the server side?
no. you have to open the gui and query the server for the update score list.

[phflack]

almost nothing is instant
so, what's your frame of instant? one second? 33 miliseconds? just make a loop to query the server based on your time frame of instant
