[Pecon]

Code: [Select]

for(%i=0; %i<clientgroup.getcount(); %i++){clientgroup.getobject(%i).player.setShapenamedistance(25);}You can change the value in setShapeNameDistance to set it to different amounts. This effect only lasts on each player until they respawn.

For a more permanent change, do this.

Code: [Select]

package permadistance{function gameconnection::spawnPlayer(%c){parent::spawnPlayer(%c); %c.player.setShapenameDistance(25);}};

neither of these worked, nickel tells me it didn't do anything when he replaced the 25 with a 0

The setShapeNameDistance has a minimum value, I don't know what the value is however.
Meaning you can't completely hide the name by setting it to 0

Yes you can

Yes you can

Unless it was changed recently, you can't, I tried it a while ago

Alright yeah I just tested it, the minimum distance was removed.
Any idea when this happened? I don't recall seeing any patch note about it

Either way, I tested the code that Pecon posted. The first works fine, the second (with the addition of an appropriate activatepackage call) doesn't work

Back in August.
