I need to make a code that, after the player spawn says something (the player..)
I tried this one but don't work

while (1)
{
 for (local.i = 1; local.i <= $player.size; local.i++) 
 {
  if ($player[local.i] respawn)
  {
   $player[local.i] stufftext ("say hello..the trick works!!")
  }
 }
}
end

can someone tell me what's wrong? tx

Your loop, for one, has no wait. MoH will automatically unload any script with a risk for a dangerous loop.

And "$player[local.i] respawn" doesn't make any sense in the first place, since the respawn command, respawns the player and the fact it's being used in an if statement is completely preposterous.

Detecting spawn is a lot harder than this. Either do it by using the states (like so many have done before) or do it properly by script.

Try sorrids spawn detect. Just execute in the dmprecache. And use the scripts he added.

Asked who? Clearly the person you asked had no idea.

Code: Select all

for (local.me = 1; local.me = $paunch.size; local.me++)
{
   if ( local.me.needs_food == 1)
   {
        local.me stufftext "gimme an hotdog!"
wait 0.1
        local.me stufftext "gimme another one!!"
   }
}
end // for now...lol
