$vcmp.area(%id) Doesnt work

[thijn]

Whats wrong with this:

on *:SIGNAL:vcmp.spawn:{
  var %name = $1
  var %id = $vcmp.getid($1)
 
  echo @Server 5 $+ >> $1 spawned $+ 
  if ($vcmp.setting.spawn == On) vcmp.say >> $1 spawned
  if (($vcmp.pass(%id) != $null) && ($vcmp.lin(%id) != 1)) {
    if ($vcmp.ip(%name) == $readini(vcmp.admin.ini,IPS,%name)) {
      vcmp.say $iif($vcmp.level(%id) == 0,Member,$iif($vcmp.level(%id) == 1,Registered Player,Administrator)) %name Auto-Logged In (Admin Level: $vcmp.level(%id) $+ )
      vcmp.msg %id You Auto Logged In - Nick-Name: %name $+ , Admin Level: $vcmp.level(%id) $+ , Status: $iif($vcmp.level(%id) == 0,Member,$iif($vcmp.level(%id) == 1,Registered Player,Administrator))
      vcmp.timer.login %name off
      !writeini -n vcmp.admin.ini LIN %name 1
      !writeini -n vcmp.admin.ini IPS %name $vcmp.ip(%name)
    }
    else {
      vcmp.announce %id PLEASE LOGIN TO THIS NICK-NAME
      vcmp.msg %id You Must Login to this Nick-Name! Type: /c login <password>
      vcmp.sethp %id 0
    }
  }
  vcmp.add.spawns $vcmp.getid($1) 1

  ;!writeini -n vcmp.cheat.ini CHECK $1 0
  vcmp.msg %id $vcmp.area(%id)
}

Because if i spawn i get no msg.
When i do:

on *:SIGNAL:vcmp.spawn:{
  var %name = $1
  var %id = $vcmp.getid($1)
 
  echo @Server 5 $+ >> $1 spawned $+ 
  if ($vcmp.setting.spawn == On) vcmp.say >> $1 spawned
  if (($vcmp.pass(%id) != $null) && ($vcmp.lin(%id) != 1)) {
    if ($vcmp.ip(%name) == $readini(vcmp.admin.ini,IPS,%name)) {
      vcmp.say $iif($vcmp.level(%id) == 0,Member,$iif($vcmp.level(%id) == 1,Registered Player,Administrator)) %name Auto-Logged In (Admin Level: $vcmp.level(%id) $+ )
      vcmp.msg %id You Auto Logged In - Nick-Name: %name $+ , Admin Level: $vcmp.level(%id) $+ , Status: $iif($vcmp.level(%id) == 0,Member,$iif($vcmp.level(%id) == 1,Registered Player,Administrator))
      vcmp.timer.login %name off
      !writeini -n vcmp.admin.ini LIN %name 1
      !writeini -n vcmp.admin.ini IPS %name $vcmp.ip(%name)
    }
    else {
      vcmp.announce %id PLEASE LOGIN TO THIS NICK-NAME
      vcmp.msg %id You Must Login to this Nick-Name! Type: /c login <password>
      vcmp.sethp %id 0
    }
  }
  vcmp.add.spawns $vcmp.getid($1) 1

  ;!writeini -n vcmp.cheat.ini CHECK $1 0
  vcmp.msg %id Spawned
}

It works
Why?

Try putting a timer on it.

For example:

Code Select Expand


timer 1 3 vcmp.msg %id Spawned at Location: $vcmp.area(%id)


This is because when you initially spawn it gets your location from where you died

This still doesnt work
also my !loc does nothing
$vcmp.location(%id) works, but $vcmp.area(%id) not, nothing happens!

What is wrong with area??

i didnt change anything to th alias

[thijn]

PLz can someone help me

EDIT: MIRC got this error: * Invalid parameters: $inpoly (line 936, gus.mrc)

[szostol]

change $vcmp.area(%id) to $vcmp.area($1). Should work, if not try change to %b. If still not change to %a but probably $1 or %b will work.

[thijn]

none of them work 

still error:

* Invalid parameters: $inpoly (line 936, gus.mrc)

line 936 is bold

alias vcmp.area {
  var %a,%b = 1,%c = $vcmp.location($1,x),%d = $vcmp.location($1,y),%e
  while (%b <= $ini(vcmp.data.ini,AREAS,0)) {
    %e = $ini(vcmp.data.ini,AREAS,%b)
   if ($inpoly(%c,%d, [ %e ] )) !return $readini(vcmp.data.ini,AREAS,%e)
    !inc %b
  }
  !return Vice-City
}

make sure your not using a very old version of mirc.

update to the lastest version or 6.16 and above.

Seems to me that you have an invalid line in your vcmp.data.ini file under [AREAS]. This would cause the invalid parameters error if there is a stray letter somewhere. Try wiping the [AREAS] section clean then gradually re-add lines until it fails.

You could also pastebin it and give us the link (It may be long) so we can have a look for ourselves
