How would i script it so if i type in "/moveplayer (playername)" that I can move a player like a brick.� so far i have
this:

Code: [Select]

package Playerbrick
{
	function serverCmdMovePlayer(%client, %text)
	{
if (%client.isadmin && isplayer(%player))
{
%playername = getword(%text, 0)
%victim = findplayerbyname(%text, 0)
%x = getword(%text, 1)
%y = getword(%text, 2)
%z = getword(%text, 3)

%victim.player.position = %player.position.x + %x;
%victim.player.position = %player.position.y + %y;
%victim.player.position = %player.position.z + %z;
Messageall(%victim, "is being move by", %client)
};
		

}
			
	}
}
ActivatePackage(Playerbrick);

note: I just used commands here.
p.s: i am also told serverCmdmoveplayer dosn't exist
*edit

%x, %y, and %z for a start =P

This should work:

Code: [Select]

package PlayerBrick
{
	function serverCmdMovePlayer(%client, %name, %x, %y, %z)
	{
		if(!%client.isAdmin && !%client.isSuperAdmin)
			return;
		%player = findPlayerByName(%name).player;
		if(!isObject(%player))
			return;
		%player.setTransform(%x SPC %y SPC %z SPC getWords(%player.getTransform(), 3, 6));
		Messageall('', "%1 was moved by %2.", %victim.name, %client.name);
	}
};
ActivatePackage(PlayerBrick);

that would make him have to type it on console, he wants to move him like a ghost brick.

Or, you could do this:

%controllingPlayer.tempBrick = %controlledPlayer;

Then you'll just need to package out the fire method for the brick weapon and the fxDTSBrick::Plant() method to make sure it doesn't crash the game when you "plant" or "place" the player.

Can you go through this step by step?

Code: [Select]

package MovePlayer
{
	function serverCmdMovePlayer(%client, %controllingPlayer)
	{
		if!%client.isAdmin || !%client.isSuperAdmin
			return;
		%player = findclientByName(%name).player;
		if !isObject(%player)
			return;
		%controllingPlayer.tempBrick = %controlledPlayer;
return;

	}
};
ActivatePackage(MovePlayer);

This will get you started. You'll still need to package out the methods I mentioned in my previous post. This endeavor might be a little too much for you to handle.

Anyway, use it like this: /controlPlayer Trader

Code: [Select]

function serverCmdControlPlayer(%client,%name)
{
	if(%client.isAdmin || %client.isSuperAdmin)
	{
		%victim = findClientByName(%name);

		if(isObject(%victim) && isObject(%victim.Player) && isObject(%client.Player))
		{
			if(isObject(%client.Player.tempBrick))
			{
				%client.Player.tempBrick.delete();
			}

			%client.Player.tempBrick = %victim.Player;
		}
	}
}

You might also want to prevent the player from controlling himself while you're in control.

Like I said, this is probably way more advanced than what you're ready to handle.

i keep getting unknown command

Trader · February 12, 2008, 01:54:37 PM

Put the code I gave you into a file called Script_ControlPlayer.cs and put the file in Add-Ons.

Then enable the Add-On and start a server. Then try /controlPlayer Trader again.

Check the console for errors.
