That would not work. You'd need to do this:

Quote

function forceCloakImage::onFire(%this,%obj,%slot)
{
%obj.hideNode(ALL);
� � � � � � � � schedule($cloaktime,0,"applyCharacterPrefs",%obj.client);
}

And you'll need to do:

Quote

$cloaktime = 10000;

somewhere in the file, too. Outside of any functions. 10000 will make them cloak for 10 seconds, by the way.

I knew about schedule thing, I just didn't know where to put it. Thanks for the clarification Ephi. I noticed you have been helping alot of people lately,

for you =D

EDIT: I think I just learned something, (Going to be called a noob, but no one ever told me this...) $ defines variables?

Falcondude · February 07, 2008, 04:11:38 PM

Global variables, yes.

%var is a local variable.
$var is a global variable.

Dr Bling · February 07, 2008, 04:15:13 PM

Heh, funny bug, when I become uncloaked, my head stays cloaked... I'm trying to find out why, but if anyone knows please drop a reply by.

New Info: I changed cloaktime from global to local, and now only the head is invisible... Something is wrong with certain variables and getting rid of the head...

I was working of fooly cooly commands, here is a working code. (unhisallnodes was a funtion used in it)

Code: [Select]

function forceCloakImage::onFire(%this,%obj,%slot)
{
	%obj.hideNode(ALL);
	schedule($cloaktime,0,UnCloak,%Obj.Client);
};
function UnCloak(%Client)
{
	%Player = %Client.player;
	if (isObject(%Player))
	{
		%Player.unHideNode("headSkin");
		%Player.setNodeColor("headSkin", %client.headColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($hat[%client.hat]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($hat[%client.hat], %client.hatColor);
		if(%Client.hat == 1 && %Client.accent != 0)
		{
			%Player.unHideNode(visor);
		}
		else if(%Client.hat == 4 || %Client.hat == 6 || %Client.hat == 7 && %Client.accent != 0)
		{
			%Player.unHideNode($accent[%client.accent]);
		}
		%Player.setNodeColor($accent[%client.accent], %client.accentColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($chest[%client.chest]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($chest[%client.chest], %client.chestColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($hip[%client.hip]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($hip[%client.hip], %client.hipColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($larm[%client.larm]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($larm[%client.larm], %client.larmColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($lhand[%client.lhand]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($lhand[%client.lhand], %client.lhandColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($lleg[%client.lleg]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($lleg[%client.lleg], %client.llegColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($pack[%client.pack]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($pack[%client.pack], %client.packColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($rarm[%client.rarm]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($rarm[%client.rarm], %client.rarmColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($rhand[%client.rhand]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($rhand[%client.rhand], %client.rhandColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($rleg[%client.rleg]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($rleg[%client.rleg], %client.rlegColor);
		%Player.unHideNode($secondpack[%client.secondpack]);
		%Player.setNodeColor($secondpack[%client.secondpack], %client.secondpackColor);
		%Player.setFaceName(%client.faceName);
	}
}

I was working of fooly cooly commands, here is a working code. (unhidallnodes was a function defined in it, so here is the working code)

That's not a bug, you didn't define the local variable.

Also, when you updatePrefs apparently it doesn't unhide the headSkin node.

Thank you laremare for trying, but it ruined the whole weapon =/... I doubt anyone can find a solution.

Ephialtes · February 07, 2008, 05:20:49 PM

My solution would have worked fine. Provided you set the variable correctly.

Is the $ variable still a %?

That would be a problem.

Also I know you think its blasphemy but try exec()ing it and see if an error comes up.

Dr Bling · February 07, 2008, 05:22:05 PM

The fatal type of error came up, the one with buffer and it shuts down blockland

Dr Bling · February 07, 2008, 05:22:36 PM

Something tells me that Ephi is right, I just screwed it up

Is this right?

Code: [Select]

function forceCloakImage::onFire(%this,%obj,%slot)
{
   %obj.hideNode(ALL);
                schedule($cloaktime,0,"applyCharacterPrefs",%obj.client);
}

$cloaktime = 10000;

Ephialtes · February 07, 2008, 05:36:36 PM

That would work I think.

Dr Bling · February 07, 2008, 06:31:45 PM

The head stays invisible when I uncloak though. Surely theres a reason...

Falcondude · February 07, 2008, 06:33:44 PM

Would it be possible to just do an unHideNode("headSkin");?

Dr Bling · February 07, 2008, 06:42:05 PM

Thats what Larmere's is supposed to do, but his doesn't unhide anything
