function savePlayer(curPlayer)
{
  temp.saveStuff = {"headimg", "bodyimg", "shieldimg", 
                    "attr[1]", "colors[0]", "colors[1]", 
                    "colors[3]", "colors[4]"};
  for (temp.curSave: temp.saveStuff)
  {
    makevar("temp.saveAccount.PD" @ temp.curSave) = makevar("temp.curPlayer." @ temp.curSave);
  }
  /*
    Finish rest of the script...
  */
}

All pretty much works, other than the colors of what the player is wearing. It's all done serverside, however it doesn't want to save what the player's currently wearing, color-wise that is.
Anyone have any idea why it seems to ignore the colors part?

Here's what it's saving:

PHP Code:

PDattr[1]=0
PDbodyimg=body.png
PDcolors[0]=0
PDcolors[1]=0
PDcolors[3]=0
PDcolors[4]=0
PDheadimg=head19.png
PDshieldimg=no-shield.png

Oh. Explains alot... Would it be possible for it to work serverside or would I need to create pointless flags! <--Question aimed at Stefan

Hey, should I do this then...? Any other suggestions, anyone? Thanks

Why don't you just save the players outfit clientside and send it serverside?

Why would I do that? I'd rather just create the player's clothing inside a string, then save that string. Why would I need to send it to the server? I could just read it from the string?
Thanks...

Create a string array containing the players outfit clientside and send it serverside to be saved.

You're totally avoiding what I've already said... However, I do thank you for trying to think of something that hasn't already been mentioned! Thanks again

[Gambet]

Huh? What am I avoiding?

I'm understanding that you can't read the player's colors serverside, so I'm suggesting to save that information clientside so that you could read it then send it over to the serverside to be saved.

Unless I'm confused about what your problem is?

Yeah, you just mentioned this ^

Well it wouldn't be creating extra pointless flags, since you're already creating an array of information on the serverside.

I'm just suggestions changing that array over to clientside and sending the final product serverside to be saved.

No need to create a flag at all, just send the attributes etc. in an action to serverside and read the data from the params.

It's not about serverside or clientside. Stuff like "colors[0]" is not working for dynamic variable names: http://wiki.graal.net/index.php/Crea...ring_variables
I am sure there is some way around that though, just requires a little bit more scripting.

ok, I shall do as I stated above, about several posts before. Thanks!
