-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hello,
Please help with my impending ulcer :) My friends and I have been modding HL2 Deathmatch (a capture the flag variety) to pop up a VGUI panel when the player first touches a flag. Depending on the button pressed, the player can either receive the flag or be thrown back. We can't seem to get the button press code back into the server, where the reward/punishment will be dished out. In other words, pressing a button creates either a "true" or "false" that we want to send back to the server. Right now, we signal the VGUI (existing in the client) by sending a user message from the server. The box pops up. We just can't figure out how to get the button press to do anything except return a value in the client. (optionally) we could load the options for each button the server, and send them via message to the client. This way, we can check for "true/false" in the server, and the client would only serve to send back a button press. We're just unsure how to do that--how to signal the server which option (button) was pressed--or if that's even the right way to think about it. Thank you so much for your help... hopefully, my friends wife won't be leaving him as a result of all this frustration :) Chad Lehman _________________________________________________________________ Connect and share in new ways with Windows Live. http://www.windowslive.com/connect.html?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_Wave2_newways_112007 -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
