monster_dogs in QW?

[redrum]

The entities should be at the very top of ClientConnect() in world.qc, not defs.qc.

I only found Clientconnect() in client.qc.?

So I put it there, I'm still not spawning cujo.

Check this code for me:

Code: Select all

                void() monster_dog =                                                       //cujo
{
                self.solid = SOLID_SLIDEBOX;
                self.movetype = MOVETYPE_STEP;
                setmodel (self, "progs/dog.mdl");

                setsize (self, '-32 -32 -24', '32 32 40');
                self.health = 250;

                self.th_stand = dog_stand1;
                self.th_walk = dog_walk1;
                self.th_run = dog_run1;
                self.th_pain = dog_pain;
                self.th_die = dog_die;
                self.th_melee = dog_atta1;
                self.th_missile = dog_leap1;

                walkmonster_start();

                local entity dog;                                                               
                dog = spawn ();
                spot = SelectSpawnPoint ();
                dog.origin = spot.origin;
                dog.nextthink = time + 0.1;
                dog.think = monster_dog;
                spawn_tfog (dog.origin);
                spawn_tdeath (dog.origin, dog);

};

This is at the end of void() PutClientInServer =

Getting an error:
error: expected;, found monster_dog

Sorry, I got confused.
ClientConnect() is in client.qc, and add the code at the very bottom of ClientConnect():

Code: Select all

local entity dog, spot;                                                               
dog = spawn ();
spot = SelectSpawnPoint ();
dog.origin = spot.origin;
dog.nextthink = time + 0.1;
dog.think = monster_dog;
spawn_tfog (dog.origin);
spawn_tdeath (dog.origin, dog);


You can't put any function inside another function.
Remove the code above from monster_dog(), and move monster_dog() out PutClientInServer(), move monster_dog() above PutClientInServer().

PS: Go to the PasteBin, that I've posted modified ai.qc, fight.qc and server.qc, otherwise you may get "function was not defined" errors.
Don't forget to backup the original ones.

error: monster_dog redeclared, prev instance in dog.qc

[Orion]

Remove monster_dog from dog.qc.

[redrum]

No more errors!

No cujo

[Orion]

Have you put the specified code at the very bottom of ClientCommect() (client.qc)?

If you put, the dog won't spawn inside you, he'll spawn anywhere in the map, in any respawn spots. Mabe you didn't find one.
Just sometimes he'll spawn inside you, and when this occurs, he telefrags himself.

Here's my ClientConnect:

Code: Select all

void() ClientConnect =
{
        local entity dog, spot;                                                          //cujo
        ClientInRankings(); // FrikBot                                                   //frikbot
   bprint (PRINT_HIGH, self.netname);
   bprint (PRINT_HIGH, " entered Spisi's Fragfest!\n");
   
        // a client connecting during an intermission can cause problems
   if (intermission_running)
      GotoNextMap ();
        //stuffcmd(self, "impulse 100;\n");                                              //adds a bot when player connects to server


        local entity dog;                                                               
        dog = spawn ();
        spot = SelectSpawnPoint ();
        dog.origin = spot.origin;
        dog.nextthink = time + 0.1;
        dog.think = monster_dog;
        spawn_tfog (dog.origin);
        spawn_tdeath (dog.origin, dog);

};

Server error message:

BTW thanks for your time and patience!

Weird...
Try this:

At the very bottom of monster_dog there's a walkmonster_start() call.
Change it to walkmonster_start_go(); and add a (self.classname = "monster_dog";) line at the very top of monster_dog().

[redrum]

Errors, (expected;, found self) here's the code:

Code: Select all

void() monster_dog =                                                                        //cujo
{
                self.classname = "monster_dog"
                self.solid = SOLID_SLIDEBOX;
                self.movetype = MOVETYPE_STEP;
                setmodel (self, "progs/dog.mdl");

                setsize (self, '-32 -32 -24', '32 32 40');
                self.health = 250;

                self.th_stand = dog_stand1;
                self.th_walk = dog_walk1;
                self.th_run = dog_run1;
                self.th_pain = dog_pain;
                self.th_die = dog_die;
                self.th_melee = dog_atta1;
                self.th_missile = dog_leap1;

                walkmonster_start_go();
           
};

The semicolon at the end of self.classname = "monster_dog" is missing, the emoticon hidden it.
It should be:

self.classname = "monster_dog";

[redrum]

Damn, I should have noticed that!

Anyway, didn't work. Server error:

Ok, I was able to log in without the server crashing.
I then switched to spectator mode. I saw cujo!
I then reconnected in normal mode. When I came into cujo's view it then crashed.
I tried it twice, and the same thing happened.

[Preach]

The error seems to be suggesting that the function called "visible" is a null_function. That probably means you've made a prototype for the function but not actually defined it. If you add the "visible" function to the end of the ai file then it should prevent that crash.

[Urre]

Is it even compileable without defining prototypes? Or maybe that's just a warning?

Pretty sure it's just a warning in fte and probably frikqcc since they support all the function pointers stuff. Prototyping is kinda like defining the function and assigning it a null pointer, then giving it the correct pointer when you actually define it (I'd imagine). Having a null pointer for a function might be useful for extension checking or something.
