NPC problem - niels44 - 15.10.2012

hey everyone,

im trying to create a bot and puts it in a vehicle when someone does /test, but instead of putting the bot in the car, it puts me or another player in the car...

anyways this is my code:

pawn Code:

public OnGameModeInit()
{
    SetGameModeText("StreetRodzRacers");
    AddPlayerClass(0, 1958.3783, 1343.1572, 15.3746, 269.1425, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);
    
    FirstRaceBotVehicle = CreateVehicle(517,2656.8381,-2005.3379,13.0751,0,0,0,-1);
    FirstRaceBot = ConnectNPC( "FirstRaceBot", "npcdriver" );
    return 1;
}

pawn Code:

CMD:test(playerid, params[])
{
    SetPlayerRaceCheckpoint(playerid, 0, -1714.984741, 1027.797485, 45.036315, -1725.589111, 926.632080, 24.717582, 10.0);
    CheckPointID++;
    SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFF0000FF, "test started");
    PutPlayerInVehicle(FirstRaceBot, FirstRaceBotVehicle, 0);
    WaitForBot(FirstRaceBot, FIRSTRACE, "startfirstrace");
    return 1;
}

pawn Code:

WaitForBot( playerid, menu, action[] )
{
    PlayerInfo[playerid][botready] = false;
    SendClientMessage(FirstRaceBot, COLOR_GREEN, action );
    PlayerInfo[playerid][waitingforbot] = SetTimerEx("WaitForBotTimer",250,true,"dd",playerid,menu );

    return 1;
}
public WaitForBotTimer( playerid, menu )
{
    if( PlayerInfo[playerid][botready] ) // This is handled inside npcdriver.pwn
    {
        KillTimer(PlayerInfo[playerid][waitingforbot]);

        switch(menu)
        {
            case FIRSTRACE:
            {
            }
        }
    }
    return 1;
}

does anyone sees wuts wrong in this code?

greets niels

Your problem is here:

Code:

FirstRaceBot = ConnectNPC( "FirstRaceBot", "npcdriver" );

ConnectNPC doesnt return anything, so your variable FirstRaceBot is something else.

If you want to link an npc to an id, you can make a check inside OnPlayerConnect and check the name of the bot, if the bot's name is the the name you're looking for, then assing a variable that identifies that bot to it's player id, like:

Code:

OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
	if( IsPlayerNPC(playerid) ){
		new name[24];
		
		GetPlayerName(playerid, name, sizeof(name));
		
		if( name == "FirstRaceBot" ){
			//Is the bot we are looking for, so we assing a variable to it.
			FirstRaceBot = playerid;
		}
	}
}

If you want to link a bot to a player id, it's a little more complicated, but you should be able to figure it out with this piece of code.
