Player clientside class functions

[Tom]

In working with Relic, I have encountered numerous programming problems that I do believe shouldn't have bothered me, but has!

For instance, player.func() defined in the ( serverside ) join command with a clientside segment doesn't work:

Example:

PHP Code:

Class pfunc:

function onCreated()
{
  echo("Class DID join");
}

//#CLIENTSIDE

public function test() 
{
this.chat = "test"; 
} 


PHP Code:

Weapon anything:

function onCreated()
{
  player.join("pfunc");
}

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onCreated()
{
  player.test(); // GraalScript: Function test not found in script of Weapon anything
  player.pfunc::test(); // GraalScript: Function test not found in script of Weapon anything
} 


As seen in these codes, the player class does not actually carry over the class functions...

onCreated() serverside is called when the WNPC is updated. onCreated() clientside is called when the player logs into the server (or receives the weapon.) The only way your script would function correctly would be if you hit the update button the exact milisecond the player logs in, before onCreated() clientside is called.

Unless, of course, in the testing of this, you updated the weapon, and thus, joined before it actually tested.

onCreated clientside is activated AS the weapon is updated. So is the serverside, thereby, in the debugging purpose, it still is a valid argument.

Just for the hell of it, try:

PHP Code:

function onActionserverside(cmd) {
  if(cmd=="created") {
    player.join("classname");
    triggeraction(0, 0, "clientside", "WEAPONNAME", "created");
  }
}

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  triggeraction(0, 0, "serverside", "WEAPONNAME", "created");
}

function onActionclientside(cmd) {
  if(cmd=="created") {
    player.functionname();
  }
}

As I say... It doesn't work.

Odd. Clientside class functions work fine in my mudlib

They never did for me. :/
Or triggering the class, rather.

I don't think this will work, only npcs have clientside scripts. But there is already something for this purpose, the weapons/GUI scripts.
