Do something with the player?

#1 I bet you try to do that from within the console ?

I suggest the following changes in scripts to help you in the future :

In client/scripts/game.cs (or any client script you know is loaded) add the following code :

function setLoc(%newpos)
{
	commandToServer('RelocatePlayer', %newpos) ;
}

function getLoc()
{
	echo(ServerConnection.getControlObject().getTransform());
}

In server/scripts/command.cs adde the following (if not already there) :

function serverCmdRelocatePlayer(%client, %newpos)
{
	%client.player.setTransform(%newpos);
}

This way you can reset the player position from the console in game. Use getLoc() to get the current player position shown in the console.log.

#2 Thanks.

#3 Is it possible to do a direct player.setTransform from within the console?

#4 Yes it is, those are persistent fields on the player object so they will get picked up right away.

#5 You should know that if you are in dedicated mode you can't do direct transform. If you use the example code I provided here you can type Setloc("x y z rot") ; in the console and you reset your player position globally (all clients will get the change).

#6 Now I have got a new problem. I want ever when the player moves to display his position. But I don't really know how to do this.
Could anyone help me?

#7 Look at the gettingstarted.pdf it tells you how to add a score display to the hud. Do the same but instead of the %player.score send the %player.getTransform(); or use getWords( %player.getTransform(),0,2); if you dont want all the rotation info, etc..

#8 But how to display all this information, ever when the player moves?

#9 Now I made this:

function moveleft(%val)
{
   if ($party = 12) {
   $pos = getloc();
   extra.setText($pos);
   }
   
   $mvLeftAction = %val * $movementSpeed;
}

function moveright(%val)
{
if ($party = 12) {
   $pos = getloc();
   extra.setText($pos);
   }
   $mvRightAction = %val * $movementSpeed;
}

function moveforward(%val)
{
if ($party = 12) {
   $pos = getloc();
   extra.setText($pos);
   }
   $mvForwardAction = %val * $movementSpeed;
}

function movebackward(%val)
{
if ($party = 12) {
   $pos = getloc();
   extra.setText($pos);
   }
   $mvBackwardAction = %val * $movementSpeed;
}

function moveup(%val)
{
if ($party = 12) {
   $pos = getloc();
   extra.setText($pos);
   }
   $mvUpAction = %val * $movementSpeed;
}

function movedown(%val)
{
if ($party = 12) {
   $pos = getloc();
   extra.setText($pos);
   }
   $mvDownAction = %val * $movementSpeed;
}

function turnLeft( %val )
{
if ($party = 12) {
   $pos = getloc();
   extra.setText($pos);
   }
   $mvYawRightSpeed = %val ? $Pref::Input::KeyboardTurnSpeed : 0;
}

function turnRight( %val )
{
if ($party = 12) {
   $pos = getloc();
   extra.setText($pos);
   }
   $mvYawLeftSpeed = %val ? $Pref::Input::KeyboardTurnSpeed : 0;
}

But it doesn't work.

#10 Try:

function moveforward(%val)
{
if ($party = 12) {
$pos = getWords( %this.getTransform(),0,2);
extra.setText($pos);
}
$mvForwardAction = %val * $movementSpeed;
}

#11 I will try, when I have time. Hope I can try on saturday.

#12 Now I have this log:
Game/client/scripts/default.bind.cs (69): Unable to find object: '' attempting to call function 'getTransform'
Anyone an idea?

#13 Now I fixed the error:
I made this:

function moveforward(%val)
{
if ($party = 12) {
$pos = getWords( ServerConnection.getControlObject().getTransform(),0,2);
extra.setText($pos);
}
$mvForwardAction = %val * $movementSpeed;
}

#14 And how to do something with a bot?
I've got this bot:

%botConnection = aiConnect("MasterBlaster" @ %i, -1, 0.5, false, "SDF", 1.0);

and I want him to follow a path:
Here's an example:

ServerConnection.MasterBlaster.followPath("CarPath", -1);

I tried this but his doesn't work.
Anyone an idee?
