Ok, Ive been trying to port the brick messages.
I edit the script abit and execute it as so:
datablock ItemData(MessageItem) //Something's fuxxed in the script
{
category = "Item"; // Mission editor category
equipment = True;
//its already a member of item namespace so dont break it
className = "Item"; // For inventory system
// Basic Item Properties
shapeFile = "/base/data/shapes/empty.dts";
mass = 1;
density = 0.2;
elasticity = 0.2;
friction = 0.6;
emap = true;
//gui stuff
uiName = "Brick Message";
iconName = "./ItemIcons/Parachute";
doColorShift = true;
colorShiftColor = "0.200 0.200 0.200 1.000";
// Dynamic properties defined by the scripts
image = ParaImage;
canDrop = true;
};
function MessageItem::onPickup(%this, %item, %obj, %amount)
{
if(%item.spawnBrick.client.bl_id == %obj.client.bl_id)
{
if(%item.hasamessage){messageClient(%obj.client,"","\c2This brick has a message - respawn the item to set a new one.");return;}
%obj.client.messageSet = 1;
%obj.client.messageitem = %item;
%item.hasamessage = 1;
messageClient(%obj.client,"","\c2Type in chat what you want this brick to say.");
}
else
{
messageClient(%obj.client,"","\c2This is not your brick! Ask" SPC %item.spawnBrick.client.name SPC "to set messages if you want.");
}
}
package MessageSetter {
function serverCmdMessageSent(%client, %text){
if(%client.messageSet){
%client.messageitem.setShapeName(%text);
%client.messageSet = 0;
messageClient(%client,"","\c2Brick message set to \"" @ %text @ "\".");
} else {
Parent::serverCmdMessageSent(%client, %text);
}
}
};
ActivatePackage(MessageSetter);
Then again, I might just be going ahead of myself tyring to edit this.
