/debugscript 3

What are you mean with that? Should i tipp this in my server console?!

[12p]

No. Join your server, login as admin, and write it.

Then, here, you must report what does it say (say whole lines please, not something like "there is an error of guigetsize").

If nothing happens, restart the script.

[directshot]

Nothing happens... i mean no errors or something like that...

and i restartet the script sometimes... should i edit my server files for the script? i only downloaded and activated the script!

[12p]

Have you used REFRESH?

/refresh

[directshot]

Yes, no fails and errors.. i dont understand...

what should i do ?

[12p]

Does it get loaded? I mean using "start", does it say something on console? What does it say?

[directshot]

when i tipp start exp_system then it succesfully started!

in the console then comes only this->

creating new DB table level_system

no errors -.- can you come on my server and check this?

[12p]

No I can't.

[directshot]

now i tried on deathmatch mode... no luck for me!... what should i do?

[12p]

Maybe it's just Castillo's bad script

Or 1.1.1 updates made it be wrong.

But by you, there is nothing to do. You should try to learn how to script instead of using community script. Those servers based on community never get far.

[Castillo]

Are you even using the script as you should? it has exported functions, you must use them with another resource.

[directshot]

What are you mean? "With another resource"? Can you explain and give me a short easy tutorial?!

[Castillo]

This resource won't work MAGICALLY, it has EXPORTED fuctions that you can use for y our own purposes.

If you would have READ the description of the resource, you could have noticed that it wasn't a magic script.

Exported functions (server-side only): 
getPlayerLevel -> arguments: thePlayer 
setPlayerLevel ->arguments: thePlayer, theLevel 
getPlayerEXP -> arguments: thePlayer 
setPlayerEXP -> arguments: thePlayer, theExperience 
addPlayerEXP -> arguments: thePlayer, theExperience 

A way of using it with zombies by Slothman:

addEvent("onZombieWasted",true) 
addEventHandler("onZombieWasted",root, 
function (killer) 
exports.exp_system:addPlayerEXP(killer,5) 
end) 

[12p]

Castillo, be kind. He does not know anything about scripting and your res title sounds like what you call a "magic script".

You should have called your resource "EXP Manager".

[directshot]

I dont understand anything here. Iam a noob in scripting.. i only take the scripts for my server.. i thought this script give me a simply exp system... what should i do exactly? i dont understand the description of the resource...

[12p]

If you cannot script, don't use this resource.

You should learn, that's how we the rude guys make good servers >

Please tell me what should i do ? Should i paste something in my server files?

[Castillo]

Can you please tell us for what you want to use this resource? you want to level up with what? killing players? zombies?

[directshot]

Killing players, leveling up... for fun, thats right.

Its for my play server.

[Castillo]

Ok, then use this:

-- script.lua

addEventHandler("onPlayerWasted",root, 
function (_,killer) 
if (killer and killer ~= source) then 
        exports.exp_system:addPlayerEXP(killer,5) 
    end 
end) 

-- meta.xml:

    "Castillo" type="script" version="1.0"/> 
  
    

With these two codes you must create a new RESOURCE in your "resources" folder, there you must create two files, one called: script.lua and other called meta.xml after that, copy the code from here and paste it in the respective file.

Ok, i will try it out in the next half hour... thank you first man.. thank you^^

[Castillo]

You're welcome.

[directshot]

You're welcome.

Ok, the resource is created with these two files. And now, iam finished? Only this one resource with these two files are needed or something else?
