Ha! So it was YOU who broke my phone line then :D:D Seems very suspicious that my connection broke just as you joined the server :D:D

All sorted now Vruki, it was a broken cable outside the house. It's been replaced and I'm up and running again.

See you soon I hope, take care man.

Sorry Vruki, I lost my internet connection half way through the first class. Couldn't get a connection after that. Been onto BT and an engineer is coming round in the week to sort it out. Hope to back on-line at full speed by next weekend (although I may be away :) ) Catch up soon mate okay ;)

I think 17 years is a bit of an exaggeration lol. Maybe 4 years though, that's a bit more realistic lol.

Well it would take ME 4 years anyway lol.

You too Vruki. It's been a long time :) I've noticed you on MSN a few times, but you were 'away' ;) As I said last night; I'm on weekends, but not usually during the week. Saturday 4-6pm (GMT) I'm on classes with Janus. But apart from that, I pop on the servers now and again if anyone is on :)

Nah - any Internet/power disruption would have resulted in me pinging out rather than such a graceful disconnection. ;)

Sorry about that - realised rather suddenly that I was about to miss the bus to a show. Did get to it OK in the end.

What's the difference between ent->s.someThing and ent->client->ps->someThing and ent->playerState.someThing and any other ways to access player state that I might have missed?

g_local.h has the answers you seek.

(much snipping implied)

Quote:
struct gentity_s {
entityState_t s; // communicated by server to clients
playerState_t *playerState; //ptr to playerstate if applicable (for bg ents)
struct gclient_s *client; // NULL if not a client
};


So, the best place to add values is in playerState. This struct is certain to be communicated each server frame. The other possibility is in userinfos, using trap_SetUserinfo and trap_GetUserinfo.

Also, I was just about to install CVS but since openCVS, the one I want, isn't out yet I'm open to new ideas. Got any suggestions on a source control system that's better than CVS? Preferably one that'll run on OpenBSD but can be accessed from Windows.

I personally enjoy CVS, but many people also use Subversion (including cHoSeN-oNe). I'm fairly sure there are Windows clients for both CVS and SVN available.

Heh. No problem with being too lazy to write conventionally correct code the first time, as long as you *do* go back and fix it eventually.

Anyway, the 'declaring variables in external files' thing I intend to stop using ASAP - mainly because it Just Shouldn't Be Done, but also because including my stuff in the existing ent structs means stuff gets allocated, cleared, and freed automatically. That disclaimer notwithstanding:

MAX_CLIENTS is defined in the game code as how many clients the server will accept at once - sv_maxplayers (or whatever the cvar is) can't go higher than MAX_CLIENTS. Therefore, if you need a per-player variable, you can simply declare it as a MAX_CLIENTS-sized array, extern or include it as you prefer, and access it via var[ent->s.clientNum] or var[ent-g_entities] (where ent is a gentity_t* to the player entity you're dealing with). One advantage to this is that its lifetime is what *you* want it to be, as it is set, cleared, etc only when you tell it to. Obviously, this carries its own disadvantage - it won't be cleared (or, in the case of pointers, freed) automatically upon player disconnects or reconnects, only when the game lib is reloaded - for example, on a map change.



EDIT: ent->s.clientNum contains the player's client number. It's convenient, but the preferred way of getting a client number when you *know* you're dealing with a player ent is ent-g_entities. This method works because the first MAX_CLIENTS entities in g_entities[] are the player ents. Also, it's slightly faster because there's less arithmetic involved in resolving the memory location - 1 subtraction vs 2 or more additions.

*like a week later!* :P


Make sure you're putting it in the SHARED entity part, not the game-side part. It's easy to add stuff to g_entities, but only select parts of them get transferred. If you don't mind disorganized code that doesn't get automatically allocated, flushed, and freed, declaring variable[MAX_CLIENTS] arrays in external headers has always worked for me.

Most of my existing code is extremely lame and hacky - I'm procrastinating a badly needed re-organizing session. More likely to do a rewrite from scratch, with proper CVSing and all that this time. Moral of the story: don't be like me; clean up your code as soon as it works! :o
