particle emitter question
 

Ok, I read the graal wiki guide and the document file posted here on particle emitters, but why does this code not work? And its a weapon on the server.

NPC Code:

---

//test of particle engine

//#CLIENTSIDE

  function onCreated() {

    showimg(1,"block.png",player.x,player.y);

    with (findimg(1)) {

      image = "light2.png";

      layer=1;

      x = player.x - 3;

      y = player.y - 3;

      alpha = .9;

emitter.attachposition=false;

emitter.delaymin=.05;

emitter.delaymax=1.0;

emitter.emissionoffset=playerx-3,playery-1,2;

emitter.firstinfront=true;

emitter.nrofparticles=3;

emitter.maxparticles=50;



//particle attributess



emitter.particle.lifetime=5;

emitter.particle.checkbelowterrain=false;

emitter.particle.clippingbox=0,0,-1,64,64,64;

emitter.particle.image=light2.png;

emitter.particle.mode=0;

emitter.particle.alpha=.5;



emitter.particle.zangle=pi;

emitter.particle.stretchx=2;



    }





  }

if (weaponfired)

{

    emitter.emit();



}

---

nothing shows up on the screen when i fire the weapon.

I haven't played around with emitters that much yet but maybe try ...

Also, you can use function onWeaponFired()

Emissionoffset is in delta, not absolute. As in, use "-3","-1", and "2". Also, it's an array, remember? You need the {} things.
Another array, and also check this one versus the DocuEmitters.txt. Use {} thingeys.
You need the thing inside a findimg(), otherwise it won't know which emitter to emit.
