Passing variables to classes...

[Twusk]

Alright, here's my problem...
I'm using a weapon with putnpc2 that is a "join class;" but I want to pass a variable to that class from the weapon, I know you can pass the variable from a weapon to putnpc2 through via

NPC Code:

---

putnpc2 x,y,{ message #v(this.test); join class; };

with (npcs[npcscount-1]) { this.test=3; }

---

but that variable (this.test) doesn't pass onto the class... and I want to know I can pass that variable onto the class. Can that be done?

[Python523]

its doing the message #v(this.test) before you even set the this.test variable

NPC Code:

---

putnpc2 x,y,{

  if(done){

    message #v(this.test);

    join class;

  }

}

with(npcs[npcscount-1]){

  this.test = 3;

  callnpc npcscount-1,done;

}

---

might work or just try setting this.test on the putnpc2 part?

Tried both, neither work. And actually that message #v(this.test) part would work, my problem is sending the variable to the class, I don't believe it has to do with time, it's just not going through. I guess you can't send variables to classes :/

post teh class

Ok, here's the basic of what I have...

WEAPON:

NPC Code:

---

if (actionserverside) {

  putnpc2 playerx,playery,{join class;};

  with (npcs[npcscount-1]) { this.test=3; }

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (weaponfired) { triggeraction 0,0,serverside,weapon; }

---

CLASS:

NPC Code:

---

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (created) { message #v(this.test); }

---

That's not my actual script, it's much longer, but you get the idea, that still won't work.

normal vars set serverside cant be accessed clientside, use a save var for your script ( save[0] = 3 )

Ahh, thank you...

Why do you need to do it clientside at all?
The class you posted would be fine serverside.

I knew someone was going to say that... that was just an example, my real class is much longer and has a timeout of .05, that's why it needs to be clientside
