Turning no playerkilling off

[excaliber7388]

How can you turn off noplayerkilling in a level on clientside, so it's only for a few players. It's for a spar, but I'm having trouble with making it so only 2 people can enter, and disabling the nopk zone. I know other servers do it, but I can't figure it out.
Basically I need a script to turn off the no pk (without serverwarp)
and an idea for making a script that allows only 2 people in a spar

How about:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() setTimer(.05);

function onTimeOut()
{
  if (player.x in |startx, endx| && player.y in |starty, endy|) noplayerkilling();
  setTimer(.05);
} 


Should work. Uhm, replace startx/endx & starty/endy with actually locations though.

That only turns on no pk when you walk out of the spar area. It doesn't turn off no pk when you walk into the spar area though

You shouldn't even use noplayerkilling();. You should use disableweapons(); then enableweapons();. You'll probably want to use disablepause(); and disableselectweapons(); as well. Spars are a pain, so I won't bother to explain more about how you might do the door for the entrance and such.

hehe spars are fun.
especially custom spars like darkspar, lightspar, etc

You can't make part of a level a killing zone and the other a non-player killing zone, but, you can do this:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated()
{
 setTimer( 0.05 );
}

function onTimeOut()
{
  if  ( player.x in |start[x]range,end[x]range| && player.y in |start[y]range,end[y]range| ) {
   enableweapons();
  } else {
   disableweapons();
   //INSERT LINE HERE TO MAKE YOUR PLAYER HEARTS ALWAYS EQUAL YOUR MAX PLAYER HEARTS. NOT EVERY SERVER USES THE CUSTOM HEART SYSTEM, SO I'LL LEAVE THIS LINE EMPTY FOR YOU TO ADD TO FIT TO YOUR SERVER.
  }
  setTimer( 0.05 );
} 


EDIT to Skyld's post right below mines: I would expect the person to have common sense. On Maloria, I'd do something like

PHP Code:

if (created)
  setshape 1,32,32;

if (actionheal) {
  setstring clientr.hp,#s(clientr.hpmax);
  set client.updateheart;
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
if ( created )
  timeout=0.05;

if ( timeout ) {
  if ( playerx in |startx, endx| && playery in |starty,endy| ) {
    unset client.disable;
    enableweapons;
  } else {
    set client.disable;
    disableweapons;
   if ( strtofloat( #s(clientr.hp) ) < strtofloat( #s(clientr.hpmax) ) ) {
    triggeraction x+0.5,y+0.5,heal,;
    }
  }
  timeout=0.05;
}

For some reason, resetting the hearts in a loop seems like overkill.

} 


So you are triggering to the server to heal the player every 0.05 seconds. THATS WHERE MALS LAG COMES FROM :O

Now i wonder where eras comes from.. hmm

Here, just made this in a second - should work:

PHP Code:

function onPlayerTouchsMe() {
  playersc = 0;
  for (i=0; i<players.size(); i++) {
    with (players[i]) {
      if (player.x in |20, 30| && player.y in |20, 30|) { // You may want to change the position checks
        playersc++;
      }
    }
  }
  if (playersc >= 2) {
    player.chat = "There is currently two players in the spar!";
  } else {
    player.chat = "Sure, come on in";
  }
} 


Maybe something like that?

No, it triggers only if you get hurt while outside of the box, can't you read code? You should really read entire code before making such accusations. I would never make a public npc trigger in a loop without any conditions to tell it when to trigger.

My bad.. sorry about that. I just looked through your code and I couldn't see the yellow ;(

That thing for the door doesn't work?

I smell abuse.
