Progress Bar / Facing Command.

[GmOcean]

Edit: I was able to make the ProgressBar do what i want, as it was a simple edit/change.

Secondly, I would like to request a command, that can effectively return a numerical value equal to that of an NPC in terms of direction facing.

For instance something like this:

getdirection <player ID>;
getdirection "player name";
//returns a value of 1-8 For direction facing (same as when you choose an NPC's facing). Returns 0, if no one is found.

Thank you very much for reading this, all help is greatly appreciated. If you have any further questions regarding my requests please don't not hesitate to ask, I will answer to the best of my ailities.

bump. I still need help/requesting a command to find the direction a player is looking in. I wish to use it in conjunction with the PushPC command.

I think the server does not always know which direction a player is facing.

server-side: player's facing direction is based on the last direction they walked

client-side: after you stop walking, you can shift-click to face a different direction, but this change is not sent to the server

To demonstrate, use a Soul Linker:

- walk north

- stop walking

- use Shift-click to face south

- use High Jump

--> you'll jump in the North direction but still be facing south on your client

This is where it's stored, hope it helps:

(unit_data for facing direction, and map_session_data for head direction)

#define pc_setdir(sd,b,h)     ( (sd)->ud.dir = ( ,(sd)->head_dir = (h) )

That's fine. I don't really care for which direction the client sees me as long as the src side is accurate.

BUILDIN_FUNC(getdirection)
{
   TBL_PC* sd;
   struct script_data *data;

   if(script_hasdata(st,2)){
    data = script_getdata(st,2);
    get_val(st,data);
    if( data_isstring(data) ){
	    sd = map_nick2sd(conv_str(st,data));
    }else
	    sd = map_id2sd(conv_num(st,data));
   }else
    sd = script_rid2sd(st);

   if( sd == NULL )
    script_pushint(st,-1);
   else
    script_pushint(st,sd->ud.dir);

   return 0;
}

BUILDIN_DEF(getdirection,"?"),

Thanks, but i managed to figure it out. I even made a setdirection command based on the info Brian gave me. I had the getdirection command store the information in variables.
