shoot & actionprojectile
 

This works perfectly for me, but in the new baddy I'm making the actonprojectile in the Control-NPC does NOT see the new projectile. I can see it shoot, but the Control-NPC doesn't get it when it lands.

Baddy script:

NPC Code:

---

    a=getangle(this.distancex-x,this.distancey-y);

    setshootparams arrow,batboss,3,batboss,batboss;

    shoot x,y,z,a,1,-1,nol_batbossproj,nol_batboss.png;

---

Control-NPC:

NPC Code:

---

 if (actionprojectile) {

  sendtorc PROJECTILE: #p(0):#p(1):#p(2):#p(3):#p(4):#p(5):#p(6):#p(7):#p  (8);

}

---

The Baddy is a DB-NPC.


EDIT: By the way, the Control-NPC gets all other projectiles, like the bows and magic I've got.

try actionsprojectile

Hm. Try something like this.

For a Weapon NPC:

NPC Code:

---

a=getangle(this.distancex-x,this.distancey-y);

setshootparams #a,nol_batbossproj;

shoot x,y,z,a,1,-1,nol_batbossproj,nol_batboss.png;

---

Then set up another Weapon NPC, such as "-Projectiles":

NPC Code:

---

if (actionserverside) {

  if (strequals(#p(0),nol_batbossproj)) {

    sendtorc Blah;

  }

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (actionprojectile) {

  if (strequals(#p(1),nol_batbossproj)) {

    triggeraction 0,0,serverside,-Projectiles,nol_batbossproj,#v(playerx),#v(playery  );

  }

}

---

Should work I think.

To both of you: All other projectiles work, except this one.. I guess Malinkos could work, but I want to know why the current doesn't work.

Is it shooting serverside or clientside

Hmm.. That might be the problem. This one is serverside, while all other that works are clientside...

- actionsprojectile:
is triggered when a server-side script has shot a projectile and the projectile
is landed; in #p(0) and #p(1) you have the x and y position of the impact
(the control-npc is automatically warped to the level where the impact
happened); #p(2),#p(3) etc. contain the params set with 'setshootparams'
(before shooting the projectile)

Didn't you try actionsprojectile?

You go girl.

Remember this Malinko ;)

Shoot is clientside if you didn't know.

No it isn't, I'm pretty sure it is serverside too O.o

It would be useless to have actionsprojectile if shoot was clientside only. :)

Era's gun's are clientside, Saw the shootcommand in the clientside part :O

I know how you look like, your phone number, and where you live.

;).

No, it's not just clientside. Please refer to scripting forum rule #4.

The actual "shoot" and the "shoot params" does go in the clientside part of the script, But the "shoot params" is basically sending a trigger which the npc will receive
