PMs, Masses, and Staff PMs

[Switch]

How would I be able to scrip stuff like this? As in, being able to tell if the person has recieved one.
Is there like havemass, havepms, have staffmsgs... what's the flag?

BTW, inspiration from Crow

For staff messages:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onWhatever() {
  for (pl: allplayers) {
    if (pl.pmswaiting()) {
      //check if pl.account is wearing a staff tag
    }
  }
} 


[gemini2]

PHP Code:

temp.p = findplayer("gemini2");
if (p.pmswaiting()) {
  if (p.isguildpm()) {
    // GUILD PM
  }else if (p.ismasspm()) {
    // MASS PM
  }
  // etc.
}

From what I see, that will check every players on the server if they have a pm on wait :O

thanks. Now, how would I be able to check who sent the PM?
And yes Crow, I'm trying to finish that system you made. I like it :i

I assumed that was the idea. Of course you can just use findplayer if you know specifically who you want to check.

EDIT: I think I may have misread your statement. Were you asking if it checks every player to see if they have PMs waiting or checks to see if there are PMs waiting from each player? I think (since this is clientside) it checks to see if there are PMs waiting from each player.

In this context isn't var.account the account of the person who sent the pm? I'm pretty sure Stefan said that it was...

What do you mean by var.account?

PHP Code:

for ( temp.a : allplayers )
{
  if ( temp.a.PMsWaiting() )
  {
    // Gah
  }
} 


Would not something like that work?

I want to make it so the person RECIEVING the PM knows who sent it. Already have the Message system worked so it can display in bottom left. I need to know how to find the person who sent it and be able to see who did on the reciever's screen.

Ok now can someone help with this:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated()
  onTimeOut();
  
function onTimeOut() {
  player.chat = player.account.pmswaiting() @ " has sent you a PM";
  setTimer(.05);
} 


Can someone tell me how to make it so FIRST it checks if the player has a message, THEN it checks if it's a Guild Message, Staff Message, PM, or Mass. It's confuszling me.

PHP Code:

function onCreated()
  setTimer(0.05);

function onTimeout() {
  if (player.pmswaiting()) {
    if (player.isguildpm()) {
      // GUILD PM
    }else if (player.ismasspm()) {
      // MASS PM
    } 
  }
  setTimer(0.1);
} 


[Switch]

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated()
  setTimer(.05);
  
function onTimeOut() {
  if (player.ismasspm()) {
    player.chat = "1";
  }
  setTimer(.05);
} 


Won't make you say "1"...

there, fixed it in the quote, PS: player.ismasspm()

Edit: Well, oddly it doesn't seem to work..
they are listed @ http://wiki.graal.net/index.php/Crea...side_Functions

PHP Code:


TServerPlayer

  isguildpm() - returns boolean
  ismasspm() - returns boolean
  openexternalhistory() - returns boolean
  openexternalpm(bool) - returns boolean
  pmswaiting() - returns boolean
  showprofile()

It was already like that, I just pasted it wrong at first. But it still won't work.
