timer.refresh

[thijn]

Hey all,
I want to make a script that checks if someone is at a location, ex: in the bank.
i thought something like:

Code Select Expand


timer.refresh 0 2 vcmp.chkloc(%name)

alias:

Code Select Expand



alias vcmp.chkloc {
if ((vcmp.rob.loc($1) == The Warenhouse) && ($vcmp.area($vcmp.getid($1)) != The Warenhouse)) {
vcmp.msg $vcmp.getid($1) You didnt gave the money on time. You lose $ $+ 100.
vcmp.cash- $vcmp.getid($1) 100
}
elseif ((vcmp.rob.loc($1) == The Warenhouse) && ($vcmp.area($vcmp.getid($1)) == The Warenhouse)) {
vcmp.msg $vcmp.getid($1) You gave the money just on time! You get 50% that 2500!
vcmp.cash+ $vcmp.getid($1) 2500
}
}

But this isnt working...
MIRC:

* /vcmp.rob.chk(%name): not connected to server
-
* /vcmp.rob.chk(%name): not connected to server
-
* /vcmp.rob.chk(%name): not connected to server
-
* /vcmp.rob.chk(%name): not connected to server

-
* /vcmp.rob.chk(%name): not connected to server
-
* /vcmp.rob.chk(%name): not connected to server
-
* /vcmp.rob.chk(%name): not connected to server

Why
Not connected?
And how can i fix this problem??
Pleas help me...

Your missing a few $'s

Any command which has brackets after is (in your case vcmp.rob.loc) should have a $ infront of it.
For example: vcmp.rob.loc($1) would become $vcmp.rob.loc($1)

It'll be the same for your timer. So it'll be

Code Select Expand

timer.refresh 0 2 $vcmp.chkloc(%name)

Pleas someone??

[VRocker]

tried calling it timerrefresh? cant remember if dots after the timer mess things up

Another reason ofcourse is that your forgetting to start the timer

hmm isnt there a space between timer and dot (.)

Code Select Expand

* /timer: timer .refresh not active
See its timer space . refresh in your code

i think it shud be

Code Select Expand

* /timer: timer.refresh not active
timer dot refresh

It's quite interesting that it's saying that you cannot use vcmp.rob.chk as I cannot see it in your scripts.

Plus, to start a timer all you have to do is...

Code (Type this...) Select Expand


//timer.refresh 0 2 $whatever_alias_you_need_to_use


I noticed that you are using an infinite timer for specific players.
Your $vcmp.chkloc(%name) is player specific so it would have to start a timer when the player joins then end it when the player leaves.

Code (Ending a timer) Select Expand


/timer.refresh off
