actionprojectile problem

Warcaptain · #1 06-05-2002, 02:35 AM

i had this working at one point, now its bugged, dont know what happened.

well it was laying arrows perfect but now its not.
im using shoot, and i want it to lay an arrow when it hits the ground im using it like it said in newfeatures2002.txt
with :

NPC Code:



if (actionprojectile){

setplayerprop #c,#p(0)--#p(1)--#p(2)--#p(3);

 if (strequals(#p(2),arrow)){

this.px=strtofloat(#p(0));

this.py=strtofloat(#p(1));

  putnpc2 this.px,this.py,{

   if (created){

    setcharani arrowstuck,barrow0.png;

    sleep 4;

    destroy;

   }

  }

 }

}

it lays the arrow too soon, and the arrow is half the distance from where the arrow finaly stopped going.
any ideas what theproblem is?

Um it should be ok, may be put the npc at this.px-1.5,this.py-2 then its equal to what we do on graal2002.

A problem can be that the npcserver doesn't know the exact height of the spot, like you have updated the gmap. AFAIK the npcserver needs to be restarted to read the heights again into the memory

SSS is easy, but i have trouble memorizing all the syntax, cause ive only been doing it a month or so. Knowing all the commands is the hardest part...using them is easy

I can't ever get my hands on the knowledge of the scripts I can't use offline... theres some sort of conspiricy to prevent me from learning it or something, lol.
