Client-Server Interaction

Clientside to Serverside Interaction

Note that the trigger name needs to be lowercase, for example "clicked" or "actionmusic".

// Clientside script
function onPlayerTouchsMe(pl) {
    var popup = GUI.showpopup({
        title: "Welcome to " + Server.getconfig().gamename + "!",
        width: 400,
        height: 300
    });
    popup.innerHTML = '<br><center>Hmmm cool!</center>' +
        '<img src="../files/icons/corleone_icon_spar.png">' +
        '<input id="actionbutton1" type="submit" class="button" style="left:100px;top:160px;width:200px;height:40px;" value="Button 1!"></input>' +
        '<input id="actionbutton2" type="submit" class="button" style="left:100px;top:220px;width:200px;height:40px;" value="Button 2!"></input>';

    var self = this;
    GUI.onclick("actionbutton1", function(event) {
        GUI.hidepopup();
        self.triggerserver("clicked", "button1");
    });
    GUI.onclick("actionbutton2", function(event) {
        GUI.hidepopup();
        self.triggerserver("clicked", "button2");
    });
}  

// Serverside script
function onClientClicked(pl, buttonname) {
    this.say(pl.name + " clicked on " + buttonname);
}  

Serverside to Clientside Interaction

// Serverside script
function onPlayerTouchsMe(pl) {
    this.say("Triggered stop music!");
    this.triggerclient(pl, "actionmusic", "stopsong" );
}

// Clientside script 
function onServerActionMusic(pl, action) {
    if (action == "stopsong") {
        this.stopmusic();
        this.say(pl.name + " stopped the music");
    }
}
