I can`t seem to get it to work... can anyone help me out; here it is: function alert_infantry() { c_ignore(1,3); c_scan(my.x,my.pan,vector(360,0,10000),SCAN_ENTS\|IGNORE_ME\|IGNORE_PASSABLE\|IGNORE_WORLD); if(you) { if(your.player_assign != my.player_assign) {set(you,INVISIBLE);} if(your.player_assign == my.player_assign) {you = NULL;} } }

What does "not working" mean? Does it crash? Doesn't the you entity get invisible? Please use code tags when posting code... Always learn from history, to be sure you make the same mistakes again...

When the "you" pointer is set and the player assign is the same for both entities I want the you pointer to clear so the scan will find a entity with a different player assign. I noticed that if the you pointer is set when both entities have the same player assign it will not re-assign the you pointer so it can find an entity with a different player assign. That is what I am trying to achieve. However, just yesterday I upgraded my 8A version from 8.30 to 8.40 and now c-scan is giving me even more problems... LOL what a bad day to quit smoking!!! At least I am occupied

Maybe this thread helps you. http://www.opserver.de/ubb7/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Main=48405&Number=405484#Post405484 Edit: Or react in a event to the c_scan fex Code: void _i_was_scanned() { if(event_type == EVENT_DETECT \|\| event_type == EVENT_SCAN) if(my.player_assign == 1) //or if(you)if(you.anything == my.anything) whatever set(my,INVISIBLE); } .. action Whatever() { .. my.emask \|= ENABLE_SCAN\|ENABLE_DETECT; //maybe scan is enough dont know right now. my.event = _i_was_scanned; .. } Last edited by rayp; 09/13/12 15:21.

By setting it up in an event_detect it won't set the you pointer until it finds an entity with the skill I assigned. Thank you for replying so fast!!!
