I did some research on the forums, and i have yet to see a thread on how to make a party system. Such as the one in zodiac, or maloria. What is the process someone would take to make one. I thought about it long and hard but i wouldnt know where to start.

Any thoughts?

Use guilds and just trigger the server which triggers the players with the same guild tag as the sending player. Then if you want you can always step it up so instead of relying on guilds you could create a database and have a new record for each group although I'm not sure even how I would do that that lol. Go with the guild idea and life will be easy >: )

I'd personally do something like have a class called "party" or whatever else you want to name it with a few functions like addPlayer, removePlayer, getPlayers, invitePlayer etc.

then create a party by doing something like

PHP Code:


		
			
function newParty(){
  temp.party = new TStaticVar("Party_"@player.account);
  party.join("party");
  party.addPlayer(player);
}

then in the class

PHP Code:


		
			
public function addPlayer(pobj){
  pobj.party = this;
  this.members.add(pobj);
}

then when a player wants to invite someone, imagine by some chat command on the client that triggers the server with the account name

PHP Code:


		
			
function onActionServerside(cmd, target){
  if(cmd == "inv"){
    player.party.invitePlayer(findplayer(target));
  }
  if(cmd == "create"){
    newParty();
  }
}

you good sir sure showed me up :0, rep+ although it doesn't count for anything lol, it's the thought that counts ;)
