Need help scripting.

Oops, I forgot the 'd' in findclientbyname. That should fix the first one.
For the second one, I'm pretty sure vectorDist doesn't exist, and your math would be wrong anyway
use vectorLen(vectorSub(%player1pos,%player2pos));

This script does not even seem to do anything.
I type in /Kill Zefoo and it does not kill me.

Why are these scripts not working?

Code: [Select]

function serverCmdKill(%client,%targetName)
{
    Echo("Killing " & %targetname)
    if(%client.isAdmin)
    {
        finclientbyname(%targetname).player.kill();
    }
    if(%client.isSuperAdmin)
    {
        finclientbyname(%targetname).player.kill();
    }
}

Code: [Select]

function serverCmdKill(%client,%targetName)
{
    Echo(Killing SPC %targetname)
    if(%client.isAdmin || %client.isSuperAdmin)
        findClientByName(%targetname).player.kill();
}The problem with your script was that you misspelled findClientByName, also you can compact the script by adding the || to the if statement.
|| means or, so the if statement there means if the client is an admin OR if the client is a super admin.

Code: [Select]

function serverCmdKill(%client,%targetName)
{
    Echo(Killing SPC %targetname)
    if(%client.isAdmin || %client.isSuperAdmin)
        findClientByName(%targetname).player.kill();
}The problem with your script was that you misspelled findClientByName, also you can compact the script by adding the || to the if statement.
|| means or, so the if statement there means if the client is an admin OR if the client is a super admin.

But even if i type in /Kill Zefoo when the FindClientByName is spelled correctly it does not work.

This script does not even seem to do anything.
I type in /Kill Zefoo and it does not kill me.

Also, isAdmin returns true for super admins so he doesn't even need the other one

[elm]

I'm pretty sure vectorDist doesn't exist

What? It's a default function..

[zefoo]

Why does this sctipt

Code: [Select]

function serverCmdKill(%client,%targetName)
{
    Echo("Killing " & %targetname)
    if(%client.isAdmin)
    {
        findclientbyname(%targetname).kill();
    }
}Not kill me when I type /Kill Zefoo
?

[elm]

You need findclientbyname(target).player.kill();

[Wordy]

because you need to use the .player part

Code: [Select]

function serverCmdKill(%client,%targetName)
{
    Echo("Killing " & %targetname)
    if(%client.isAdmin)
    {
        findclientbyname(%targetname).player.kill();
    }
}
also you could check if the client has a player object by doing this

Code: [Select]

function serverCmdKill(%client,%targetName)
{
    Echo("Killing " & %targetname)
    if(%client.isAdmin && isObject(findclientbyname(%targetname).player))
    {
        findclientbyname(%targetname).player.kill();
    }
else
    {
        announce("Invalid player!");
    }
}

[zefoo]

because you need to use the .player part

So this should kill me when I type in /Kill Zefoo?

Code: [Select]

function serverCmdKill(%client,%targetName)
{
    Echo("Killing " & %targetname)
    if(%client.isAdmin)
    {
        findclientbyname(%targetname).player.kill();
    }
}

[Wordy]

yes

[Ipquarx]

yes, but it wouldn't echo properly, you don't use the & symbol to put 2 strings together, you use @

[Wordy]

didn't notice that

[jes00]

yes, but it wouldn't echo properly, you don't use the & symbol to put 2 strings together, you use @

And it's missing an ; and for the person's name you would want Echo("Killing " @ findClientByName(%targetname).name);

[Kalphiter]

didn't notice that

So you noticed neither the & nor the missing semicolon?
