Hello there, if you are calling a thread and need to pass information to the new thread then it would be something like; $myobject thread newthread - or - $myobject thread newthread local.player. The thread 'newthread' will then have a lable such as, newthread local.player:
If you are using self in the newthread self would be $myobject and if refering to local.player, that would the local.player identified at the time when the thread was called.

A clip from part of your script;
thread bomb_waittill_defuse2
thread bomb_waittill_explode2
self.live = 1

end
}
}
if (local.counter > 0)
local.player stopwatch 0
}
end


bomb_waittill_defuse2:
while ( $(self.trigger_name) )
{
self.trigger_name waittill trigger

What you have here is the reason for NIL listener self is not passed to the new thread, os the new thread cant find a listener for commands like waittill trigger etc.... So in other words you need to pass the "bomb" targetname to the new thread, it will then become 'self'

dunno if i am wrong but the self refer to the bomb .

[Grassy]

You have mixed up some things.

To pass the bomb info to the new thread and have it as self in the new thread do this.

Method 1;

//the call statement
$bomb thread bomb_waittill_defuse2 //<<you got this one right

//the thread label
bomb_waittill_defuse2: //<< $bomb will be self in this thread


Further down your script you have;
//call statement
thread bomb_waittill_set2 $bomb2

//thread label
bomb_waittill_explode2 $bomb2: //<< not correct

To make this thread work without too much fuss change the lable to this;
bomb_waittill_explode2 local.bomb:
//and add this line under the label
local.bomb = self

still same error :/..... i ll try to think about an another architecture......

infinite LOOP.

Error " pssoible overflow"

[agentmad007]

the loopis ok i ve added a wait .1, and i have none errors but none effects.

axis can still spawn .

[Green Beret]

ok,im a terroist hijacker of topics

but whaty if i have a documents and it needs stolen.
what would be the simplest code to have allies win after the documents have been stolen.
heres my style of code and usually when i use the local.stuff it corrupts my whole code.
(BTW this is for Destroyed Village Server Side)
it works besides when i try the local.documents.stolen ==1 bla bla
it corrupts??

Code: Select all

        level waittill prespawn
