Problem with Zaltron's minimap library.

How to not save a key along with src.mob.

Wed, 07 Sep 2011 19:51:16 +0000

client
    proc
        SaveMob(var/nomessage=1)
            if(src.mob && src.mob.SaveSlot && !(src.mob.status2 & SAVETIMER))
                var/mob/player/Q = src.mob
                Q.oldx = Q.x
                Q.oldy = Q.y
                Q.oldz = Q.z
                var/savefile/F = new("Players/[Q.Username].sav")
                F.cd = "/[src.mob.SaveSlot]/"
                F["mob"] << mob
                if(!nomessage)
                    src.mob << "<b><font color=red>You have saved!</b></font>"
                src.mob.status2 |= SAVETIMER
                spawn(50)
                    src.mob.status2 &= ~SAVETIMER
            return
        LoadMob(var/slot,var/mob/OldMob)
            if(slot)
                var/mob/player/Q = src.mob
                if(!fexists("Players/[Q.Username].sav"))
                    return
                var/savefile/F = new("Players/[Q.Username].sav")
                F.cd = "/[slot]/"
                var/mob/player/L = new
                L = F["mob"]
                if(!L)
                    src << "<b>ERROR: Unable to create mob from save file. Corrupted?"
                    return
                L.SaveSlot = slot
                world<<"<font size=1><font color=yellow><B>Info:<font color = silver> [L] has logged on the server."
                L.loc = locate(L.oldx,L.oldy,L.oldz)
                if(L.oLoc)
                    L.loc = L.oLoc
                    L.oLoc = 0
                L.Logged = 1
                spawn()
                    while(OldMob)
                        del(OldMob)

This is my current save / load system. I'm trying to implement an in-game username system and everything works fine. The only problem is that saving the variables from src.mob also saves key and ckey, which means you disconnect if you log in a character with a key other than the one you originally created it with... which completely undermines the purpose of having an independent login system to begin with. How would I go about reworking this system to not include key or ckey? Any comments or suggestions are appreciated.

SwapMaps issue.

Problem description: Creating the house and then entering it works fine, but if you relog it doesn't let you back into the house. Am I handling the loading incorrectly? I'm not quite sure what's going wrong. Any insight would be helpful.

Problem with NPC AI.

Problem description: This is the code for an NPC that follows you around and fights for you. I cut out irrelevant pieces of code and did not include everything necessary to make it function, but this should give you the gist of what I'm trying to do. The problem I'm having is that when Mode is set to Attack it doesn't find any mobs so target never gets set and therefore it doesn't attack them. Any suggestions?

Female base mockup.

Wed, 12 May 2010 05:28:40 +0000

I was working on this just for fun. I made a base and then I put some clothes on it, hence the "mockup" tag. I doubt I'll use this for anything, so if anybody wants to modify or use it in any way, it's a free resource as well.

Comments & criticism?

A few icons I did for a game I'm working on.

Mon, 12 Apr 2010 00:54:02 +0000

Hey, I just wanted a little criticism on a few icons I've been working on for a game I've been doing solo so far. I'm used to strictly programming, so some constructive criticism would be nice.

A small room, testing some of the inside turfs I made.

A building I made for a general store in the game.

This is a water turf I made. I didn't know how to make a big animated picture, so I just recorded it in-game and uploaded it to TinyPic.

Louis from Left4Dead.

Fri, 06 Feb 2009 20:01:11 +0000

I've been working on some sort of Left4Dead BYOND game in my spare time. This is what I came up with for Louis so far:

Thing biggest problem I've been having is that I can't get his hair to look like it does in the game... in-game it's very short, almost bald, but all I can manage is making him look like he's trying to grow a damn afro. Any help would be appreciated.

I got bored and started working on a base. I probably won't use it for anything, but I wouldn't mind some criticism anyway.
