Deconstructor?

hi,

it would be nice to have a function that is called when someone updates a weapon but before the update occurs.

Perhaps a call, but don't wait for it ...

Otherwise, you could do something like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
function onWeaponUpdated( nameOfWeapon )
{
  while ( true )
  {
    sleep( 0.05 );
  }
}

Personally, I really don't see a use. Your scripts should be coded in a way that if that happens, they can keep on going.

onCreated is triggered on any sort of update...
I'm probably misunderstanding the request.

Yes, he wants OTHER scripts to be alerted before a weapon is updated.

wee, would be so much better if we could catch dynamic events.. :( Could just do a catchevent() on the onCreated event :o

You could just use function onCreated(). I can't believe you even suggested such a ridiculously stupid thing.

I was referring to Chompy's idea of using catchevent on onCreated as being stupid - not this. Although the problem is that the serverside would have to wait for this update function to complete, which sometimes if abused, it never will, and the clientside has no idea that the script has updated until it's been updated anyway.
