catch player leaving level

is there some type of if command or work around to catch if a player is going into a link, or leaving a lv? Need the opposite of onPlayerEnters basically.

onPlayerLeaves(), serverside only

Not seein what I'm doin wrong, but player.chat ="fadeout" and echo will not happen

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() {

  this.levelfade = "armageddon-spar-main";

}

function onPlayerLeaves() {

  if (player.level.starts(this.levelfade)) {

    triggerClient("gui", name, "leftScreen");

    echo("fade out");

  }

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onCreated() {

  this.levelfade = "armageddon-spar-main";

}

function onActionClientSide() {

  if (params[0] == "leftScreen") {

    player.chat = "fade out";

  }

}

function onPlayerEnters() {

  if (player.level.starts(this.levelfade)) {

    player.chat = "fade in";

  }

}

player is not an accessible object in that function.

PHP Code:


		
			
function onPlayerLeaves(temp.pl)
  echo(temp.pl.account SPC "just left level" SPC this.level.name @ "!");

Actually, I'm wrong. The function isn't called for wNPCs, and from the looks of things, that's what you're trying to use.

From what I heard from Axel, onPlayerLeaves gets called after the player actually left. You'd need to make custom level links to do the fade effect.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could do something like

PHP Code:


		
			
player.onLevelSwitch = function (e) {

  e.stop();

  

  blackness.tween('opacity', 0.2, 0, 1);



  schedule(0.2, function () {

    player.level = e.link.newLevel;

    player.x = e.link.newX;

    player.y = e.link.newY;

    blackness.tween('opacity', 0.2, 1, 0);

  });

};

Yes, that was a weird mesh of JavaScript and GS2.

Tig should know right? He made a similar system for GK didn't he?

Kingdoms has custom level links, e.g. levels won't fade out when using actual level links on Kingdoms.

Yep, I actually refuse to use default linking in any of my projects because I find that it's insecure, glitchy, and difficult to manage.

I always use custom linking joined to a class. That way if I want to edit the linking process later, I can do so. Also, it prevents several glitches.

An example of a custom link on one of my most recent projects:

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() {
  this.setShape(1, 64, 32);
  this.warplevel = "newlevel.nw";
  this.warpcoordinates = {30, 20};
  this.dir = 2;
}
join("warpfield");

When the player touches the warp field facing this.dir's direction, it schedules an event to warp the player in 0.125 seconds and sends a trigger to a clientside weapon that triggers a fading of the screen for 0.1 seconds. Then, also in the clientside weapon, onPlayerEnters() un-fades the screen.

So if I use that function, I should script it all in a dbnpc or something?

Also, is there any threads on custom level links, didn't see them, although I'm tired and could have skipped right though it I suppose. Wouldnt know where to start to make custom level links, but would like to! :)
