MP Fan Damage

Hi!

Here's what I have. The problem is that it only hurts the host in MP (no matter who touches the fans)

Code:

# Jedi Knight Cog Script
#
# FANDAMAGE.COG
#
# Damage player when he touches one of the fans. Somehow. No idea how it really works. So sue me.
#
# [Goofz, help from Zecks & Hideki - Thanks!]
#
# This COG script is not supported by LEC. Jodeldiplom.

symbols

thing		fan1	linkid=1
thing		fan2	linkid=2	
thing		fan3	linkid=3	
flex	damage_amount
	
int dummy	local

message     touched


end

code

touched:
   if ((GetSenderId()==1) || (GetSenderId()==2) || (GetSenderId()==3))
	{
	player = GetLocalPlayerThing();
	dummy = DamageThing(player, damage_amount, 0x01, player);
	#DamageThing(player, damage_amount, 0x01, player);
	}
Return;	

end

Any help from you cog-gods out there? [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Maybe you should try flagging it...

I'm not sure but I think you missed something out in the symbols section.
Try adding this:
int player local

Make it local, with flags=0x240 as the first line, or change player=GetLocalPlayerThing(); to player=GetSourceRef();

I'd say make it local, it'll save on net traffic.

Code:

# Fandamage.cog
#
# Damage the thing that touches this fan.
#
# This cog is not supported by LEC.
#==================================#
symbols
   message touched
end
#==================================#
code
touched:
   DamageThing(GetSourceRef(), 20, 0x1, GetSenderRef());
Return;
#==================================#
end

Put "cog=fandamage.cog" in the template of your fan for this to work. GetSourceRef() will be the thing that touched the fan and GetSenderRef() will be the fan.

I think this will work in MP without flags, because LEC's fandamage cog didn't have them.
