Now you no longer have to worry about shapes or overlapping or any of that other junk. |
Interesting to know, thanks. However, didn't you say there would be a better way then using triggeractions to do this? Because I'm not sure what you would be referring to. Unless you ment "triggeraction" being changed to "triggerserver" ?
And rather then a new thread for a 2 second fix, I have the above code also setting a variable after joining:
PHP Code:
temp.obj.placedby = player.account;
The variable reads serverside from the class, but not clientside. Any idea other then a serverside to clientside trigger?
It seems attr's work but was wondering if theres any other way.
