Is it possible for a BONG to be played when entering a zone? Or is it only possible through bots?

this is going out on a limb but perhaps have the bong included in the periodic enter message

[Purge]

Only through bots or ASSS since they both can detect whenever a player enters.

Having a bong like %2 placed in the GreetMessage in [Misc] will only result in the message actually saying the "%2", so that won't work.

[Agurus]

Yeah, it dosn't work on periodic messages either...

[THE Lucifer]

Do you want EVERYONE to hear the bong, or just the entering player?

Entering player.

[Chambahs]

just do it through bots/asss, i did it through asss, so it cant be that hard

[THE Lucifer]

Have the bot/ASSS pm them with sound, sound-carrying lvz, or a bong that the zone force them to d/l.

[Purge]

In MERVBot, it's pretty simple.

spawn.cpp:

Code: Show/Hide case EVENT_PlayerEntering: {          Player *p = (Player*)event.p[0];                                  String s;          s +="Welcome ";          s +=SND_ATT;      // this is the bong packet          s +="to my zone!";          sendPrivate(p, s.msg); }

You sure that will work purge?

Plus that would be arena not zone

Only ASSS can determine when a player is entering the zone.

[Cyan~Fire]

Would not work, Purge.

Code: Show/Hide sendPrivate(p, SND_ATT, "Welcome to my zone!");

Ah, true. Then I guess what I just wrote up there will output the bong # instead of the actual sound in the message?

[Bak]

yes

[Agurus]

I am not a bot man (yet), think someone could whip up something similar (w/Ini?):

BOT>/(pm's player this) TEX TEXT TEXT *Bong*

Ini could have like:

#What bot pm's
Hello welcome to my zone!

#Bong Number played
%##

Somethign like that

[Bak]

close, you made the same mistake purge did.

You can not put the bong sound in the message, or you'll just get a message like "Hello Friend %15" with no sound.

use Cyan's way instead

Code: Show/Hide int bongNumber = getBongNumber(); char* message = getMessage(); sendPrivate(p, bongNumber, message);

[homie]

hey agurus its me homie i put a bong message through log time data u can make a very very easy bong but there is a mess up in data u have to put

int bongNumber = getBongNumber(); //the comma before bong
char* message = getMessage();

sendPrivate(p, bongNumber, message); //and message has to be with a *
next to it for it too reach the player and a time ()has to be entered as well to come on time to say as the player enters the zone on lhv.txt

[Solo Ace]

Err? Why did you just quote the code and made some stupid comments about it?
