player.loadvars(path)
 

does not work x_x

i am guessing for security purposes.. but this needs to be modified.
lets say this is a file..
[code=Contents of levels/file.txt]
clientr.var1=244
account=Boop
[/code]

and if i do player.loadvars("levels/file.txt") it should pretty much set player.clientr.var1 to 244 (setting the flag) but not do account (because thats a reserved variable)

but it should allow to create new or modify custom variables x_x

k fix this :(

thx

You have to do something like player.clientr.loadvars() I believe. I use this function in my mudlib, so I know it works.

Yes the player is a quite complex variable, that's why direct access is not possible, only some sub-variables can be changed. If it's really a problem then it could be modified (in the hope that it's not breaking other functionality).

It would be quite helpful. I know earlier, like when we were still testing the new engine I was doing player.loadvars() or player.clientr = objContainingVariables; and it would work, but when I tried this a couple months ago it didn't. It would be quite useful, otherwise you have to run a loop to set all of the strings and it kills a bit of efficiency.

Well now I made it so it saves a seperate text file for the client and clientr variables. You can do

clientr.save/loadvars()

But I kind of fail to see how it would be too complicated.. I mean just not allow for the script to wrote over any variables that are read only already.. ie: player.account

but can modify player.gralat serverside but not clientside etc
