function onActionRConline ()
 
Why isnt this command in existance?
I always wanted an RC startup message seperated from the player one!
Can someone tell me a way how to do this?

Check if the player.level.name is NULL when somebody logs on (do that serverside, in the Control-NPC or w/e). If thats the case, its an RC.

onActionPlayerOnline doesn't work for RCs I am fairly certain--you'd have to make a loop

Crow 03-31-2008 07:14 PM
Hm, not sure. It's done on Era somehow, but I'm too lazy to check right now D:

It's a 1-3 second loop in a DBNPC that checks allplayers

PHP Code:
function onCreated() {
  onTimeout();
}

function onTimeout() {
  for (temp.player: allplayers) {
    if (temp.player.head != "tig-rchead2.png" && temp.player.level.name == NULL) {
      temp.player.head = "tig-rchead2.png";
      this.onRCLogin(temp.player.link());
    }
  }
  setTimer(2);
}

function onRCLogin(pl) {
  pl.sendpm("Hello new RC.");
}

Ah ;D

What the hell is link()?

object.link() - It's basically the account name.

Good guess, it actually makes a pointer to a variable, i.e., linking two variables to the same address.

:) Thanks.

variable.link() does nothing except returning the variable's value.

Instead of sending temp.player.link() you would just send temp.player as that is an object. And object variables are pointers.

Internally speaking, obj.link() returns a pointer which is referenced later instead of being sent through the callstack as a plain value. It doesn't have a great amount of use in GScript, but it doesn't just return the variable's value.

obj.link() can be used to pass huge arrays to functions without copying the array (by default it's copying the variable except it's already a link to an object). Also the called function can modify the original array that way.

Inverness 04-01-2008 01:00 PM
Ugh, I'd really like it if you would DOCUMENT these things -.-

I don't think I understood quite what you meant at the time >_<, so I forgot.

But I would still like it if you documented this stuff :p

Was wondering why it is only working with arrays and not strings or numbers? I've just realized how this could be very useful but don't want to wrap data in an array.

And after thinking about it a bit more I'm wondering if you could let it be used anywhere even outside of functions?

I doubt it only works with arrays, but arrays are a good example to show how efficient this can be. Instead of copying the whole (sometimes big) array, you can point to it and dont waste such huge amounts of memory and you can change it without the need to send the changes back.

In almost all cases for GS2, an array is simply a string.

Well why don't you jackasses try it for yourselves instead of trying to tell me how I don't know what I'm talking about. Using link() to send an array pointer as a function parameter works fine but you cannot treat that array pointer as a string.

I've tried, but I didn't get it to work :(

PHP Code:
//WORKS
function onCreated() {
  temp.v = {"lol pancake"};
  this.addto(temp.v.link(), "o.o");
}
function addto(var, val) {
  var[0] @= val;
}
// DOES NOT WORK
function onCreated() {
  temp.v = "lol pancake";
  this.addto(temp.v.link(), "o.o");
}
function addto(var, val) {
  var @= val;
}
