Try this:
PHP Code:
function onActionServerSide(cmd) {
if (cmd == "hitPlayers") {
// before you were using 'allplayers' which is an array of every player on the server
// 'players' is an array of every player in the current level
// 'findNearestPlayer(x, y)' just returns every player within a level or so of the x/y given. It's a lot more efficient when used on GMAPs.
for (temp.pl : findNearestPlayers(player.x, player.y)) {
if (pl.x in |player.x - 5, player.x + 5| && pl.y in |player.y - 5, player.y + 5|) {
pl.chat = "oww!!!";
player.chat = "I hit " @ pl.communityname @ "!";
}
}
}
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
function onKeyPressed() {
if (keydown(6)) {
triggerserver("gui", this.name, "hitPlayers"); // it is customary to always send a command for verification purposes
}
}

temp.pl = findplayer(p);
temp.mypl = findplayer(params[0]);
if (pl.x in | mypl.x -5, mypl.x + 5 | && pl.y in | mypl.y-5,mypl.y +5 | ) {
pl.chat = pl.account;
}

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onKeyPressed(){
if(keydown(6)){
triggerserver("gui", name,player.account);
}
}
Also, you can instead on the clientside use findnearestplayers(x,y), loop through, find the players you wish to send the chat and send the array to the serverside, instead of letting the server handle the loop. |
No offense intended to Dusty, but I would ignore everything he said. You should always do things like hit detection serverside. You should always assume that the player can change any clientside code, and do everything you can serverside to prevent against hackers.
Second, if you trigger serverside, your player object is always in scope. Sending your player account with it is a huge security risk because a hacker could change this to make other players do something.
Third, this is completely unnecessary:
PHP Code:
for(temp.p:allplayers){
temp.pl = findplayer(p);
p in this case is already a
TServerPlayer object. Technically
findPlayer(String account) shouldn't even find the player correctly. The only reason it does work is because it interprets the object as
object.name, which happens to be the account name of the player. For example, you can do:
PHP Code:
for (temp.pl : allplayers) {
pl.chat = "hello";
pl.setlevel2("start.nw", 30, 30);
if (pl.x > 32) {
pl.x = 16; // example
}
}
Again, sorry if I give off the feeling of being offensive, just trying to help
