changing puppets with ParseArg

this only works 2-3 times for me, then the latest changement remains...is there an other way to change a puppet file?

if it doesnt have to have other cogs reference it, just have a bunch of templates that are exactly the same and create the new one you need and destroy the old one... and could even have the thing number stored in a bin so other cogs could get it like that... not for player, however...

None I believe, think of a way so you don't have to rotate puppets alot, some compromising to your idea is sometime needed.

try something like this:


Code: 
symbols

message     startup

model    newguy=NewPlayer.3do           local


#============================================

code

startup:

if (GetThingModel(player) ==newguy)
ParseArg(player, "puppet=newpup.pup");



that help?

no, this does not work. My problem is not the cog, but the fact, that you can't change the puppet files more than three times...anyway, thanks...
