Function Execution

[killerogue]

It would be nice to have a way to speed up, slow down or pause the execution of individual functions.

I was working on something where I wanted all my objects to get loaded before I send the information to the player with a "public function onPlayerLogin(pl)", but the loading of the objects is done "onCreated".

so, why won't onCreated work?

Hmm, well I don't know if it helps much, but things are executed in order from top to bottom, so if you do the loading before the functions, it should load beforehand.

That's why they made functions such as scheduleevent and so forth.

OnCreated() is working. Lol, I just need to pause the execution of onPlayerLogin so I make sure the vars are loaded properly. I do suppose I can set an extra var and use scheduleevent and add a function Gambet.

I usually do something like

PHP Code:

while (var == null)
{
     sleep(0.5);
} 


It will stay in the loop while the variable is null, and when it is set, it continues. This is what I use when i'm loading something from the serverside on clientside

Indeed you can.

You could use waitfor() for a non-existing event, Stefan recommended that.
