having trouble.

[Frankie]

PHP Code:

with(putnpc2(this.x, this.y, "join newgas-" @ this.bombtype @ ";"))
{
  this.time = random(30, 50);
  this.owner2 = thiso.gasowner;
} 


if I try to view what this.gasowner is outside of with(putnpc2()) it's fine. but when I try to set a different string to it so it will transfer to the other class, it's not working. how can I fix this ?

Personally, I think that way of doing it is ugly like hell. Try this, see if it works:

PHP Code:

temp.npc = putnpc2(this.x, this.y, "join(\"newgas-" @ this.bombtype @ "\");");
temp.npc.time = random(30, 50);
temp.npc.owner2 = this.gasowner;

I'm doing that, and it's still not working -.- damnit.

I see the problem

this.owner2 is trying to be read on the clientside. when I read it on the serverside it works fine.. I need to read it on clientside though in order to do what I'm trying to.

Since you already have it set up in temp.npc, just do this:

PHP Code:

temp.npc = putnpc( dx, dy, "" );
npc.join( "myclasslol" ); 


EDIT: I take that back, you don't have it setup like that, but you should ;o

[Frankie]

well, I just need to know how I can read the string clientside if it was set serverside

Rough script.

PHP Code:

function onActionServerSide()
{
  if (params[0] == "putNPC") {
    temp.npc = putnpc2(this.x, this.y, "join(\"newgas-" @ this.bombtype @ "\");");
    temp.npc.time = random(30, 50);
    temp.npc.owner = this.gasowner;
    temp.npc.attr[25] = this.gasowner;
  }
} 


Then in the class...

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated()
{
  chat = "My owner [" SPC attr[25] SPC "]";
} 


[Frankie]

ahh. it worked. thank you

I'd probably do something like this though:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated()
{
  this.owner = attr[25]; // string > attr, 4sho
  chat = "My owner [" SPC this.owner SPC "]";
}
