[EO3] Adding Map Variables

[Tashology]

Hello,

I am trying to program a system which will save an owner for each map. I have added the variable .MapOwner to both the server and the client but it just won't load or save it and whenever I try to save the map owner, the client crashes.

Any advice on how to add extra Map variables?

Thanks!

Well, if you don't want to do any programming, you can use events and the variables there. I'm a bit rusty on which variables are which but you should be able to use them. If you're hard set on programming then someone else can help you with the packets better than I can.

Ideally I'd want to program it because that way it's a bit easier when it comes to storage (plus given the fact that it would be easier to make each map store the owner's username and recall it).

[PD]

Have you tried deleting the maps?

[Tashology]

I didn't try that, will the server remake the maps automatically?

[Growlith1223]

Yes it will, it'll create completely blank maps

I tried it and I keep getting the same error - Something to do with Map Blocks…
Any ideas?

EDIT: I've removed all of the ownership stuff and it's still getting that issue when I try to log in. I can no longer do anything.

[PD]

Make sure you delete the maps in both the client and server folders. Also where are you getting the error? Client or server-side? Run both in the IDE and screenshot the error.

I get a subscript out of range error on the following sub:
(Highlighting the ">>" line)

```
Public Sub UpdateMapBlock(mapnum, x, y, blocked As Boolean)

   If blocked Then
       MapBlocks(mapnum).Blocks(x, y) = 9
   Else
  >>  MapBlocks(mapnum).Blocks(x, y) = 0
   End If
End Sub
```
And yeah, I deleted the maps in both folders.

Could you specify which error exactly it is? saying you get an error doesn't help you or the ones helping you in succeeding in doing so.

[Tashology]

I said, it's a subscript out of range error 9.
Meaning that a variable is passed to an out-of-bounds specified array.

oh my bad lol, didn't see you said what it was in the post above mine(woke up like 20 mins ago so my bad)

Anywho, i would try looking at the values of mapnum, x, and y, and make sure that they aren't abnormal. afterwards, if this is the client, i would try seeing what the server is sending out first, if it's the server crashing, check what the client is sending out

Hello, I'm brazilian, then… sorry my Bad English.

You Want made one "Player OwnerMap System", like -> House System,

Learn First a USING Commands -
- GetVar and PutVar.

Only need made this save in one Blank Note in Server, to Save and Load, and Check too, if the player is a owner of maps.

Using Put i will save the values in the blank setted, and using Get will search for the variable in the note saved.

Is really simple to made that.
