[EO] Walking through players

[Guest]

Hah, no problem :).

[Draken]

sweet needed this for zelda project :)

[abcbadboy555]

how come it doesn't work? Are you able to walk thru npc's with this, or only other online players?

As the thread title says, only walking through players. The map moral must also be set to "Safe".

only players but if you want npcs too just delete the check for npc.

[Guest]

Or, to make things more balanced in PvP maps ignore Rune and move the line of code I added into the source above the check for NPCs.

[GoGames]

yeah or that xD

[Esmeyana]

For me it works great.. Thanks a ton!

i gots a error when i clicked, " make TornWorlds.exe" , heres the error, i dont know if it relates to this but please helps :)

all i did was follow the codes, i even put in right spots. but, i still got the error, i dont know how fix :(,

[Carim123]

That's nothing to do with this code, you screwed something up around the Animation Admin Panel…did you accidentally delete the button, or something?

[airdude2]

im not sure, i just loaded my client in the vb6 and added the code above, tested it with the play button, and this poped up :(

Stop trying to help when you obviously know jack shit about the errors which people are posting. Getting sick of the completely unrelated instructions you've been posting.

'GetPlayerAccess' isn't a function. You should be able to gather this much from the damn error message. -_-

You've apparently deleted it. Well done.

[airdude2]

if i get rid of the code that caused the error will it make another error, or will it fix? Sory for me messing up :( i cant edit the client untill the error stops poping up please helps.

[Robin]

Yes. Completely removing anything which gives you a problem is obviously the right way to program a game engine(!)

Restore one of your backups. If you don't know enough to understand the damn error message then you shouldn't attempt to fix it.

For some reason, my player can walk through other players, but can also walk through NPCs. Any help on why this is happening? Here's my CheckDirection Function:
```
Function CheckDirection(ByVal Direction As Byte) As Boolean
Dim x As Long
Dim y As Long
Dim i As Long

    ' If debug mode, handle error then exit out
    If Options.Debug = 1 Then On Error GoTo errorhandler

    CheckDirection = False

    ' check directional blocking
    If isDirBlocked(Map.Tile(GetPlayerX(MyIndex), GetPlayerY(MyIndex)).DirBlock, Direction + 1) Then
        CheckDirection = True
        Exit Function
    End If

    Select Case Direction
        Case DIR_UP
            x = GetPlayerX(MyIndex)
            y = GetPlayerY(MyIndex) - 1
        Case DIR_DOWN
            x = GetPlayerX(MyIndex)
            y = GetPlayerY(MyIndex) + 1
        Case DIR_LEFT
            x = GetPlayerX(MyIndex) - 1
            y = GetPlayerY(MyIndex)
        Case DIR_RIGHT
            x = GetPlayerX(MyIndex) + 1
            y = GetPlayerY(MyIndex)
    End Select

    ' Check to see if the map tile is blocked or not
    If Map.Tile(x, y).Type = TILE_TYPE_BLOCKED Then
        CheckDirection = True
        Exit Function
    End If

    ' Check to see if the map tile is tree or not
    If Map.Tile(x, y).Type = TILE_TYPE_RESOURCE Then
        CheckDirection = True
        Exit Function
    End If

    ' Check to see if the key door is open or not
    If Map.Tile(x, y).Type = TILE_TYPE_KEY Then

        ' This actually checks if its open or not
        If TempTile(x, y).DoorOpen = NO Then
            CheckDirection = True
            Exit Function
        End If
    End If

    If Map.Moral = MAP_MORAL_SAFE Then Exit Function
    ' Check to see if a player is already on that tile
        For i = 1 To Npc_HighIndex
        If MapNpc(i).num > 0 Then
            If MapNpc(i).x = x Then
                If MapNpc(i).y = y Then
                    CheckDirection = True
                    Exit Function
                End If
            End If
        End If
    Next
    For i = 1 To Player_HighIndex
        If IsPlaying(i) And GetPlayerMap(i) = GetPlayerMap(MyIndex) Then
            If GetPlayerX(i) = x Then
                If GetPlayerY(i) = y Then
                    CheckDirection = True
                    Exit Function
                End If
            End If
        End If
    Next i

    ' Error handler
    Exit Function
errorhandler:
    HandleError "checkDirection", "modGameLogic", Err.Number, Err.Description, Err.Source, Err.HelpContext
    Err.Clear
    Exit Function
End Function
```

Make sure you have this in your code:

    First, in **Function CheckDirection** find this:

' Check to see if a npc is already on that tile
And move that whole chunk of code (up to 'Next) above:

' Check to see if a player is already on that tile
    For i = 1 To Player_HighIndex
        If IsPlaying(i) And GetPlayerMap(i) = GetPlayerMap(MyIndex) Then
            If GetPlayerX(i) = x Then
                If GetPlayerY(i) = Y Then
                    CheckDirection = True
                    Exit Function
                End If
            End If
        End If
    Next i

Lolwut, how will this stop 'griefing'? (whatever you mean by that)

Trapping the player in a corner is kinda like griefing xD

Also use code tags…

I applied this to Eclipse Origins - Event System and I can walk through events! I just wanna notify you all of this bug.

Yeah sorry I didn't think about a year and a half into the future when I wrote this :].

You, are a comedy genius.

Put it below 'For i = 1 To Map.CurrentEvents'

Maybe a dig? IDK, but I was doing this and saw the post so I figured I'd chime in even if it's obvious.
