tesplayer()

[MrOmega]

Well, I'm testing for players serverside and testplayers just returns -2, and by accident I put testplayers() and it returned properly but I got the error "Function testplayers not found at line 191", now how can it return something if it doesnt exist?

What -did- it return, and can you show the example code?

I echoed this and it was NULL

PHP Code:

players[ testplayer( params[ 0], params[ 1])].account 


then I did

PHP Code:

players[ testplayers( params[ 0], params[ 1])].account 


and it echoed my account, along with my other account
( I had both logged on, close together, this is in a loop, I'm using findnearestplayers now btw)

Are you testing it in a pk zone? I haven't tried to use this in a while, but I remember testplayer() only working in pk zones.

If you want to find a player in a non-pk zone, you need to use findNearestPlayers().

Could it be that 'testplayers' didn't exist so it defaulted to 0 and the line returned the first player in the array?

Pretty sure it did just that.

testplayers only returns players that are blocking as I remember so it's useless in nopk zones
