Destroying henchmans on client leave

How to destroy PCs henchman on client leave?

 

I tried add a tag when creating the henchmans with the PC name:

 

object oPC = GetPCSpeaker();

CreateObject(..., "hen_"+GetName(oPC));

 

and on client leave this code:

 

object oPC = GetExitingObject();

object oHenchman = GetObjectByTag("hen_"+GetName(oPC));

if(oHenchman != OBJECT_INVALID) DestroyObject(oHenchman);

 

 

This didn't work because there is players with TWO names like (White Tiger) and the space beetwen White and Tiger does not match to search for tags

 

the tag is: "hen_WhiteTiger"

 

and I search for "hen_White Tiger" does not work

do not use pc name for tag, instead use ObjectToString

Interesting, Shadooow

 

I was happy trying to make it work with ObjectToString, but oLeavingPC is not a valid object =/

 

On Client Leave just keep PC name, not playername or object

Use the player's public cd key maybe to tag the henchman? Also you should use "if (GetIsObjectValid(oHenchman))" instead of checking for "if (oHenchman != OBJECT_INVALID)" in the OnClientLeave code. The expression you use isn't as fool proof as the check I prefer.

 

object oPC = GetPCSpeaker();

CreateObject(..., "hen_"+GetPCPublicCDKey(oPC));

 

and on client leave this code:

 

object oPC = GetExitingObject();

object oHenchman = GetObjectByTag("hen_"+GetPCPublicCDKey(oPC));

if(GetIsObjectValid(oHenchman)) DestroyObject(oHenchman);

ah i forget... neither getpcpubliccdkey will work

 

you just need to store henchman as a local object on PC (or his tag as local string on pc)

Shadooow you was right.


The public CD key didn't work.

The ObjectToString worked successfully.


Thank you all anyway for the help
