It actually might be better to set a variable on area.Entered() and area.Exited() so you don't have to keep calling the istype() procedure over and over again. It's safe for lag reasons.
Of course, you'd have to relocate a person like most smart developers do. You would use Move(). That way, it calls the procedure (either Entered() or Exited()). | |
The only istype() needed would be in an attack verb. I don't how it would create lag, compared to someone who's walking, constantly changing one's vars.

Actually, you might read up on area and know that that is not how area.Entered() functions. All areas of the same type are counted as one instance, not multiple areas. So, it won't keep changing the variables.
It's a very useful thing too. It can be used to wake up monsters so they aren't constantly running procedures, it can be used to shut them off where there is nobody around, and more. | |
captfalcon could u show me what u mean, i think i know what your talking about i just want to see if im right. and if u wouldnt mind could u help me a little cause this is i think the last thing i need to get my game at basically 100% aside from monsters, items, and a drop script.

Well, here is an example. This is pertaining to the question you initially asked. It looked as though you were attacking people who weren't PVP while you were PVP.
mob/var/pvp //pvp variable Although you probably should typecast those and someone will get on me for not doing so, you shouldn't really have to. It's just the replacement of one variable. | |
Well, to avoid error with the : operator, we would set a mob variable to the atom and change it's variables with the . operator instead. If I find a link to the article, I will post the link.

Please show us your PK script than, in order for us to see how we can make it so that the other people can't PK
But for simplisity's sake, just have everyone's PK var set to 0 and when they walk in the arena, the Area/Entered() (or was it Enter()? meh, forgot which happened when >_<), it changes their variable... likewise for Area/Exit() for the same thing
