[Compile issue with eclipse worlds]

Anyway to get around this? I cant make any changes to the code or forms without it complaining to me so I'm unable to make a new executable. :(

[Compile issue with eclipse worlds]

Everytime I try to compile Eclipse worlds I get this error… Now, I haven't even changed any of the code, yet it's still giving me this error? My client.exe runs perfectly as well? I don't get it.[attachment=1380:help.png]

[Question about player targeting]

So I cant handle it all on the client side?

[Question about player targeting]

Im trying to design a system that displays a players information upon targeting them. Where would I write the code If player=targeted then drawCharInfo? Under which sub? Im using the latest version of EA. I have enumerated GUI_CHARINFO and i have a sub DrawCharInfo already implemented. Thanks for any help!

[Shields in latest version of EA]

Whenever I attack a monster with a shield equipped I get a runtime 9 error and my server shuts down, any ideas?

debug brings me to the starred off section of this code

```

Public Function GetPlayerStat(ByVal index As Long, ByVal stat As Stats) As Long

Dim x As Long, i As Long

If index > MAX_PLAYERS Then Exit Function

* x = Player(index).stat(stat)*

For i = 1 To Equipment.Equipment_Count - 1

If Player(index).Equipment(i) > 0 Then

If Item(Player(index).Equipment(i)).Add_Stat(stat) > 0 Then

x = x + Item(Player(index).Equipment(i)).Add_Stat(stat)

End If

End If

Next

GetPlayerStat = x

End Function

```

Edit: if it helps any I discovered that if I kill the enemy in 1 shot it doesn't give me the error, its when it takes multiple shots.

3.0.21

edit: it is absolutely just shields, i havent had this problem with anything else equipped.

[Bow and Arrow And Throwing Items]

use the lastest version of EA, it comes equipped with projectile system.

[Ranged + multiple drops]

Behhhh he never responds to me, ever.

[Ranged + multiple drops]

Yeah just got done re adding it, its still goin nuts. I didn't add projectiles myself, the current version of EA came with it.. Idk if maybe deaths doesnt cooperate with it well?

[Ranged + multiple drops]

Magic and melee work absolutely fine tho?

[Ranged + multiple drops]

when the monster dies, the ammunition image keeps flying around and appearing at random points on the screen and it lags. I have it as fast as it can go.

[Looking For Artists]

i can start working on somethings tonight.

[Ranged + multiple drops]

Using current version of EA with Multiple drop tut added in.

Upon killing monsters with magic and melee weapons the game runs perfectly fine and smooth, the items drop and its all good… Upon killing an enemy with any ranged weapon the game lags to hell, the image of the ammunition flies around screen longer than it needs to, THEN the monster drops loot. Any ideas? Please? 

[Getting a better understanding for stats]

I was surfin around the code a little bit and it looks like skill damage is calculated only with will? So if a warrior wanted a skill "double slash" - 2 consecutive attacks - the damage would be based of the number of pts in will and not str? or double shot for bowman, that wouldnt be based on agility either? Is this easily changeable so that skill damage can be based off the weapon type or class type?

current version of EA

Edit - can someone also fill me in on what the scroll bar titled vitals in spell editor does? it scrolls all the way to like 20,000…. lol

[Help with c++]

Time for a nap, lmao thanks Marshy Dearest!

[Help with c++]

This is my code

```

// Vector.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.

//

#include "stdafx.h"

#include #include #include "time.h"

using namespace std;

void PrintVector(const std::vector &MyRand2 );

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])

{

//Random number stuff

srand( time(NULL)); // this 'seeds' random number generator

// The modulus operator is used to manage or control the number

// Its the ramainded after dividing by the number (10) ans. 0-9

vector MyVector;

for(int i=0; i<20; i++)

{

MyVector.push_back(rand()%10);

}

PrintVector( MyVector );

system("pause");

return 0;

}

void PrintVector(const std::vector &MyRand2)

{

std::vector::const_iterator constIterator;

for( constIterator = MyRand2.begin(); constIterator != MyRand2.end(); constIterator++ )

{

cout << *constIterator << ' ';

}

}
```
this is my output

9 2 8 9 0 0 8 1 7 7 4 5 0 8 3 3 0 5 5 2

this is my desired output

9 2 8 9 0 0 8 1 7 7

4 5 0 8 3 3 0 5 5 2

I know this is probably god awfully simple, but I cant find where to place endl; effectively.

[Adding equip slots EA]

Im trying to add equipment slots to EA, my question is about adding more columns to the Character_GUI menu.

I wanna know how to set up the code so I can add more rows of equips, like whats boxed in red, for the added equip slots boxed in blue.


the code for the set up looks like such.

the -78 was an add from me to heighten the normal 4 equip slots upward to fit my GUI change. As you can see it only accounts for one row, I just want to know how to add more.

```

Public Function IsEqItem(ByVal X As Single, ByVal Y As Single) As Long

Dim tempRec As RECT

Dim I As Long

' If debug mode, handle error then exit out

If Options.Debug = 1 Then On Error GoTo errorhandler

IsEqItem = 0

For I = 1 To Equipment.Equipment_Count - 1

If GetPlayerEquipment(MyIndex, I) > 0 And GetPlayerEquipment(MyIndex, I) <= MAX_ITEMS Then

With tempRec

.Top = GUIWindow(GUI_CHARACTER).Y + EqTop - 78

.Bottom = .Top + PIC_Y

.Left = GUIWindow(GUI_CHARACTER).X + EqLeft + ((EqOffsetX + 32) * (((I - 1) Mod EqColumns)))

.Right = .Left + PIC_X

End With

If X >= tempRec.Left And X <= tempRec.Right Then

If Y >= tempRec.Top And Y <= tempRec.Bottom Then

IsEqItem = I

Exit Function

End If

End If

End If

Next

' Error handler

Exit Function

errorhandler:

HandleError "IsEqItem", "frmGameLogic", Err.Number, Err.Description, Err.Source, Err.HelpContext

Err.Clear

Exit Function

End Function

```

[Rendering coordinate question]

Thanks man! that was it!! 8)

[Rendering coordinate question]

Edit - Found how to move the + label but the click event is still lowered?

current version of EA

Ive found the section of code that renders the stat labels along with the X & Y coordinates, but I cant seem to find the coordinate position for the level up "+" signs to go with it.

any help where the coordinates are located for these?


[Sprite size change]

current version of EA

I changed the width of my sprite set to better fit paper doll weapons and everything worked out fine except the shadow didnt follow my character. But oddly the name over my head did? Any help?

/edit - I found shadow in my miscellaneous and attempted to pair it up with the sizing of my sprite box and now there is no shadow anywhere.
