GBall RC Command Issue

[Emera]

I find that backing up the server using an RC command is quick, easy and simple. I don't want to have all of this listed in the control-npc however.

PHP Code:

{
    {
      "levels/ganis/*.gani", false
    }, {
      "scripts/*", false
    }, {
      "weapons/*", false
    }, {
      "levels/images/*", false
    }, {
      "levels/*", false
    }, {
      "levels/guilds/*.txt", false
    }, {
      "npcs/*", false
    }, FOLDER_NPCS
  } 


So I made a new DB-NPC called GBall_Backupfiles. I want to be able to make the Control-NPC read from the Backupfiles NPC and write the .arc file according to what it finds inside the the backupfile NPC. I am having issues. I can't figure out how to make it read from the NPC, since I am normally a fan of sql, and don't store data with DB-NPC's much. Here is the portion of the control NPC concerned with the backing up.

PHP Code:

findnpc("GBall").GBall("Backup of Lexia", "data/Lexia_backupfiles"@server.backupnumber@"_", npc("GBall_Backupfiles").this.backupfiles); 


and here is the NPC GBall_Backupfiles.

PHP Code:

this.backupfiles = {
  {
    {
      "levels/ganis/*.gani", false
    }, {
      "scripts/*", false
    }, {
      "weapons/*", false
    }, {
      "levels/images/*", false
    }, {
      "levels/*", false
    }, {
      "levels/guilds/*.txt", false
    }, {
      "npcs/*", false
    }, FOLDER_NPCS
  }
}; 


Can anybody help me out

You would just specify:

GBall_Backupfiles.backup_files

In the GBall command.

GBall_Backupfiles.this.backup_files

would be referring to:

this.this.backup_files = {};

In your GBall_Backupfiles script.
