im working on a money system and i'm trying to figure out how to change the value of the money variables. heres a part of the script:

NPC Code:

---

if (keypressed) {

  if (strequals(#p(1),n)) {

    setstring client.dollars,strtofloat(client.dollars)+=1;

  }

}

---

when i press n, it changes dollars to "strtofloat(client.dollars)+=1" instead of raising it by 1. can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong?

try

NPC Code:

---

if (keypressed) {

  if (strequals(#p(1),n)) {

    setstring client.dollars,#v(strtofloat(#s(client.dollars))+=  1);

  }

}

Make it clientr.dollers so they can't be edited.

Make the keypress trigger that code serverside so that it can edit the clientr.var

Try not to crash the server, if you do that.

I wonder how thats gonna crash the server

KeyPressed is called every .05.
Sending triggers to the serverside that often is painful.
I found that out when I typo'd an NPC on Babylon. :[

But then again, their server's a piece of crap.
