Hey back with some new stuff. I've learned a lot lately and now i'm hitting a new problem... I can't reproduce the results of what the RPG game does and what i do in a seperate file. If you looked at the code for #getclientid command youll notice this

Code: [Select]

     if(%w1 == "#getclientid")
{
           if(%clientToServerAdminLevel >= 1)
           {
                 if(%cropped != -1)
                 {
               ------->%id = NEWgetClientByName(%cropped);<------

if(floor(%id.adminLevel) >= floor(%clientToServerAdminLevel) && Client::getName(%id) != %senderName)
Client::sendMessage(%TrueClientId, 0, "Could not process command: Target admin clearance level too high.");
else if(%id != -1)
                             Client::sendMessage(%TrueClientId, 0, %cropped @ " clientId is " @ %id @ ".");
                       else
                             Client::sendMessage(%TrueClientId, 0, "Invalid player name.");
                 }
                 else
                       Client::sendMessage(%TrueClientId, 0, "Please specify player name.");
           }
return;
     }If you look at the thing inbetween the ------->  <--------- if you make the connections by the time you have this working

Code: [Select]

function test2()
{
%id = newgetclientbyname(BotsName);
say(0, "#global Target id is " @ %id @ ".");
}

you should have it say its id like 2048 is your own id... but i keep getting a -1 and when i do my own name rather than a bot i create i get my 2048... i don't understand. i need a way so i can grab a bot's id i create and use it in dfining a location for stuff i can already get the coordinates successfully just need that thing up there to work. Please help

This should be in the Assistance part of the forums..

'BotsName' Either needs to be put into a variable or have quotes around it.

If you are using this for client-side, it isn't going to work. For server, I suggest not using a say() command.

Ya i thought i was in assistance sorry, and ya its client side, I looked it over and talked with LW and ya that won't work but i have another plan. i also need help with one more thing i'll post that in assistance though.
