FindNpc to find putnpc2 npc?

I want an NPC in a level using putnpc2. If it's not there i want to create it, if it is i want to send data to it.

However, how can I use findnpc() to find an npc that has been placed by putnpc2?

Thanks.

In theory you can do something like:

PHP Code:


		
			
with (putnpc2())
{
  // code
}

Also, the value of the this.name variable inside the putnpc2 NPC can be used with findNPC() in the same way that a Database NPC's name can be used.

ah, thanks, i'll use this.name.

I need the NPC accessible from multiple level NPCs so using with(putnpc2()) wont work.

Yeah, you would have to store the this.name somehow in the npc that created it.

Same I use other variables such as this.type, this.nname, etc..

What I do is:

PHP Code:


		
			
this.pnpc = putnpc2( stuff....);

this.pnpc.foo = "lala";

yeah, but i need to call the putnpc2'd NPC from NPCs other than the one that created it.

I am thinking perhaps this concept article I wrote may be of some use to you: http://wiki.graal.net/index.php/Crea..._Communication
