OnZoned?

Vaft · Post by **Vaft** » Tue Aug 24, 2004 8:36 pm

PLUGIN_API VOID OnZoned(VOID) {
	WriteChatColor("YOU HAVE ZONED!",USERCOLOR_DEFAULT);
	return;
}

This this function never executes. How can this be ?

well from what i understand onzoned is kinda funky.... like it occurs before you're actually done zoning... a lot of times onzoned events dont work, especially with server and client lag taken into consideration....

imho onzoned needs to be tweaked or alternatively setup a plugin with onincoming chat "you have entered **" for events you want to occur specifically after youre done zoning.

if you can figure out a way to use on incoming chat like that please reply here as i would like to set up a plugin to automatically perform a few tasks when im done zoning... specifcally sometimes i go afk while zoning and i forget to stop the twist plugin... kind of embarassing when people are talking to you figuring youre not afk because you are singing =(

yeah it was triggering too early for me, so i moved it to onincomingchat with "you have entered"

You must have looked real hard, the twist plugin itself handles incoming chat like that, as do many other

Yes. OnZoned should be renamed to MightBeZoned.

I've got a few personal plugins that use OnZoned and they semi-work.

I've been pondering a workaround that would involve basically global flag that would be set during OnZoned, which *DOES* fire but doesn't require the client to be fully there.. and stuff in Pulse/etc that would check for flag, do what i wanted to do with DoCommand, and reset flag.

... just some thoughts...

another possibility might be zoned.cfg support added during the "bind" support stuff.... i haven't looked to see where it actually gets called to see if it's more predictable though.

In MQ2CommandAIP.cpp

Code: Select all

VOID HideDoCommand(PSPAWNINFO pChar, PCHAR szLine, BOOL delayed)

this helps me perform a /slash command on event how?

So you want me to write the plugin for you, is what you're saying?

Code: Select all

PLUGIN_API DWORD OnIncomingChat(PCHAR Line, DWORD Color) 
{ 
	if (!strcmp(Line,"This is the chat line i'd like to match.  Aha I rule.")) {
		HideDoCommand(GetCharInfo(),"/HiImASlashCommand do you love me?",FromPlugin);
	}
	return 0;
}

or something like that
