Stefan himself said playersays is no longer being used like.. a year ago..

NPC Code:

---

if (playerchats&&strequals(#c,stuff)) {

  //things;

}

---

I'm not sure about toweapons though.

Playersays has been obsolete since end of 1999,
but it is a kind of bug that it doesn't work
(it is optimized now so that only npcs are called that
use the playerchats flag somewhere)

Toweapons is the same thing like before

I lost it when I reformatted my hard drive.

[Admins]

playersays() stuff should work again in revision 4

Stefan can you put the setup back to the old way.
The bit where you pick what you install.
I cant understand the new one and found the older one a lot easier.

why is it playerays(0,buy stonewand) anyways?? what is the 0 for

[Saga2001]

ok first off, playersays is a very stupid command, strequals() actually has uses!!! also you did this playerrupees=playerrupees-2500 thats way to long try playerrupees-=2500 its a better operator for a better graal . like:

NPC Code:

---

playerrupees-=2500;

//        is to

playerrupees=playerrupees-2500;



playerrupees+=2500;

//        is to

playerrupees=playerrupees+2500;



playerrupees*=2500;

//        is to

playerrupees=playerrupees*2500;



// also the more than or equal to and less than or equal to look like this;

if (this.i>=0) commands;

if (this.i<=0) commands;



// Better version:



if (playerchats&&strequals(#c,buy stonewand)&&playerrupees>=2500) {

  playerrupees-=2500;

  hidelocal;

}



// also the following tw things are the same (because it checks to see if its equal):

if (strequals(#c,buy stonewand)) commands;

if (strequals(buy stonewand,#c)) commands;



// just as these two are the same:

this.i = 1;

this.j = 1;

if (this.i==this.j)  commands;

if (this.j==this.i)  commands;

//

Um I don't believe that's correct.

NPC Code:

---

this.i = 1;

---

This sets this.i to 1.

NPC Code:

---

if (this.i==this.j)

---

this is TESTING to see if this.i is equal to this.j

You misinterpreted. He was saying that "i==j" is the same as "j==i".

indeedy.

[Shard_IceFire]

Sorry.
The way you worded it made it rather confusing.
