Need help scripting.

[zefoo]

To compare strings:

$=
!$=

To compare anything else:

==
!=

And the or sign is || right?

[Ad Bot]

[elm]

Correct.

[zefoo]

Correct.

And whats the best way to find the distance between 2 players?

[Kalphiter]

And whats the best way to find the distance between 2 players?

vectorDist(%c1.getPosition(), %c2.getPosition());

[zefoo]

Why is this script

Code: [Select]

suddenly not working?
nvm got it

[zefoo]

Why is this part of my code
not working?
i can pick them up at any distance.

Why is is part of my code

Code: [Select]

%distance1 = vectorDist(%player1pos.getPosition(),%player2pos.getPosition());
            %client2 = findClientByName(%targetName);

            if(distance1 < 1)
            {
                messageClient(%client,'',"<color:ffffff>Grabbing <color:ffff00>" @ %objectName);
                %client.player.mountobject(findclientbyname(%objectName).player,0);
                %client2.messageClient(%client,'',"<color:ffff00>" @ %playername @ "<color:ffffff> grabbed you!");
            }

            if(distance1 > 1)
            {
                messageClient(%client,'',"<color:ffff00>" @ %objectName @ "<color:ffffff> is to far awway!");
            }Now working. It allows me to grab someone even if they are really really far from me.

Why are you getting the position of a position...
You really have to try thinking through your code a bit more

Its not what you think. %player1pos = %client.player

[Treynolds416]

Its not what you think. %player1pos = %client.player

That's a misleading variable name, especially because you didn't post the code where it is set.

Yea sorry lol.

Would it be

Code: [Select]

if(distance << 1)
{

}?

Also how do you mount a players node number to a players node number?

[elm]

Code: [Select]

if(distance << 1)
{

}?

Change distance1 < 1 to %distance1 < 1 and change 1 to about.. 3 or 4.

You can mount a player object to another player object.

%slot = 0;
%player1.mountObject(%player2,%slot);

[elm]

What slot would be the neck or body?

Not sure off the top of my head, it's not hard to find out though.
