DUDE BE MORE SPECIFIC. Is this a local or global entity. Do want this 2 effect all clients or just 1 specific client (meaning locally on his machine alone like a menu).
If u want something to happen to a specific "player" but be seen on all machines what you can do is have a function that runs only once when the game starts, and have a variable holding the current number of players assigned to the player (if there are 5 players now that this new player has joined then he is player 5). Make sure this runs only once, and set it to that entity's skill at the start of the function. Now you can check the entities to find the one with a specific id and manipulate just that player. Here is a way you could assign a player id to all players (this is rough scripting might contain errors)
define skill1, id;
var Num_players;
//put this in your main function
function server_called
{
if(connection != 1)
{
num_players += 1;
send_var(num_players,send_all);
}
}
on_server server_called;
function player_func
{
var do_once;
while(my==null){wait(1);}
while(1)
{
wait(1);
if(do_once != 1)
{
do_once = 1;
my.id = num_players;
}
}
}
This was a 2 minute rough job and looking at it even know i see a few mistakes but that was just for conceptional perposes, just to give you an idea of a way it could be done. If you have no idea what I'm talking about then your probably not ready for MP anywayz
