Setting a Brick's Owner

[Club559]

I tried changing the stackBL_ID value and the client value both but it didn't work. Either setting the brick's owner, forcing trust to someone (not an invitation), or somehow adding some player to a brick's allowed builders list if it's... possible.

What will you be using this for exactly?

[Ephialtes]

Add-ons that allow admins to build on non-trusted users bricks or force-trust with users will be failed.

Thanks for the feedback on an add-on that hasn't been made or never will. I'm going to use it to make a Real Estate event for the cashmod. That won't be abuse when you sell your house/office/whatever and they purchase it and they get the rights to build on that one plate, or would it?

Check duplicator code for getting all the bricks in a stack.
Make it so it needs a named brick, and go like:

Code: [Select]

getBrickgroupFromObject(_baseplatelol).remove(obj);
I suggest doing it in a for() loop until all the selected bricks are updated by doing:

Code: [Select]

%client.brickgroup.add(obj);
Which adds it to their brick group. Might be sorta laggy but it should work.

The brick names don't have any quotes? I need quotes in order to work with this...

What he means by obj is the object reference.
It could be a local variable ( % )
It could be a global variable ( $ )
It could be a name ( string )
It could be an ID ( integer )

As a scripter, you should know this already.

No, brick names do not have quotes. Why the hell would you need quotes?

[Protokol]

I think that changing the ownership could work like this

Code: [Select]

%bl_id=getWord(%argl,0)*1;

%bg="brickgroup_"@%bl_id;

if(!isObject(%bg))
{
new SimGroup(%bg)
{
bl_id=%bl_id;
};mainbrickgroup.add(%bg);
}

%b.getGroup().remove(%b);
%bg.add(%b);

I would do:

Code: [Select]

function allowBuild(%client, %brick)
{
%origin = getBrickgroupFromObject(%brick);
%origin.remove(%brick);
%client.brickGroup.add(%brick);
//PlaceBrickStuff (I can't fill this in figuring you haven't provided how yours works)
%client.brickGroup.remove(%brick);
%origin.add(%brick);
}
That way it returns it to it's rightful owner after the admin's brick is placed.

In fact, just download the Selector Wand and learn from it:

They're SimGroups, you don't need to remove it from the original. Adding it to another SimGroup automatically removes it from all others.

You'd only need to do that if it was a SimSet. (identical to groups but objects can be in more than one)

Never knew that. Thanks.

Oh, so that's why I crashed when I added my client to another group. Never knew that.

Well, now I need to find out how to get all the bricks in a stack and adding them to a brick group.
