Question
 

Im just wondering is there any way to check if the player has a gold account? like if (playerisp2p) or something like that? (playerisp2p is just an example i made up :rolleyes: )

Name your threads so they tell more about the subject. Consider this a warning before I officially warn you. :D

eep sorry man.. but what about my question xD

No flag of the sort exists as far as I know. There's only "playertrial". Yeah... that could sort of do what you want, but it wouldn't tell you if they actually have gold or VIP time left. If you didn't want it that specific anyway... well, there you go. :P

o thats what i meant :D I didn't mean if they have gold i meant if they paid at all so playertrial would be free.. thanks ;)

No problem. Oh... it's serverside only btw.

I thought I remeber hearing something about a flag to says if the player has VIP or not...

Ther were many suggestions for this already, no one listens to us though no.

But R0bin!!! We can't have new things added that would make things easier or better! We have to work around things and just live with it forever!

NPC Code:

---

if(!playertrial){

sestring client.acctype,what ever;

}

---

Would not that help?

Not really, because you cant tell if the account is VIP or Gold.

thats what i did osrs. I got a lot better at scripting since my last posts ;)

Indeed, but since there are no others ways to indentify the account type (at least i don't know any other) you could just class the account as upgraded or so..

Woo

Edit: rate me good now :D

I may be missing your point, but why would you set a flag to identify that another flag is true/false? Can't you just check playervip?

Profile stuff needs strings...

I think you have already seem that a few playerworlds like to put on profile what kind of account you have, and like what Kjetil said the profile needs a string, that's why i saved it.

playervip? playertrial is the only one available for checking these things, as far as i know... but since there are hidden commands i may be wrong. (or not)

oh yeah, profiles, d'oh

uh... find dead end -> create workaround -> suggest new feature -> wait for new feature -> use new feature if added, else forget about it

hehe, more detail for account types wouldn't make anything easier or better, it would just allow for spiffy extra stuff. The playertrial flag allows us to deal with trial accounts in special ways since they have different attributes than an upgraded account (not saving, blah blah)

Oh yay, here's that extremely overused little "->" bs once again. How surprising...

Btw, this is extremely OBVIOUS, the problem is with suggesting a new feature. Any time you do so, people just sit there and say how stupid of an idea it is, or tell you how you can get around it, which isn't always able to be done perfectly. Sure, Stefan may ignore everyone and actually consider the suggestion, but something tells me he rarely even reads any threads in the Suggestion forum.
