Problem description:
I want to control which atoms can be viewed by a client so to make a fog of war system, can I remove atoms from the list that contains visible atoms, the list that is returned with view(usr)??

This may be of some use to you.
|
The /list returned by view()/range()/ect is temporary and generated on the fly. Altering the list won't affect anything.
If you want to control which images a client can see, you need to use /image objects and client.images. | |
so isn't there any sort of list that will affects the visible atoms??
| |
Not for atoms directly. The best you can do is attach images to atoms and control which of those are visible by adding them to client.images.
I think you still can't run flick() on /images, but you can use a blank /image with override=1 to selectively hide atoms, and then just flick() the atom like normal. I would look at the library Mightymo posted, it sounds like it does what you need. | |
Yeah I've checked the library before posting but it is not suitable for what I'm trying to do. But anyway I can use the image and hopefully store a reference of the image inside the atom it was assigned to, So later I can alter the image and make it invisible. Thanks for the help :)
