Disable trigger for...

[Barttje]

Hi all

How can I remove a trigger for only one player
so the rest can use the triger (once)

tnx

[LeBabouin]

Which player? anyone? You? What distinguishes that player from the others? And what game for?

[Barttje]

anyone can use it once, is it possible?

(oh BTW, i'm scripting in notepad so not in mohradaint or whaterver)

The usually way of doing it is to give a player a value after they have triggered the trigger once then in the thread for the trigger you check if that player has had the value set

mythread:
while(1)
{
$mytrigger waittill trigger

local.player = parm.other

if(local.player.somevalue == 1) // check if value is set yet
end // if value is set thread will end

local.player.somevalue = 1 // if thread didn't end set the vaue for next time

.....
.....
}
end

Tnx bdbodger it works
but if i walk again in to the trigger he is saying the trigger message:

Code: Select all

local.trigger message ".... Blabla ...."

can i disable it to?

[bdbodger]

No don't think you can but you and add a iprintln statement to your thread instead of the message key on the trigger or local.player println I think will print a line only to that one player .

Doesn't "println" only print to the console and not the screen?

According to a couple of our fine members here at .map it is actually iprint

/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9450&highlight=local+player+print

I knew it was one of the print statements . Backed up by the SDK Docs

iprint( String string, [ Integer bold ] )

prints a string to the player, optionally in bold
