Player leave server, and player afk, hide players name.

nwninterested · April 2018

Can someone give me an on player leave server, and on player afk script? I am making a murder mystery / avoid the killer type game, and if the killer player leaves, or is afk it needs to pick someone else.
It also needs to detect a variable on the player ( but can it do that after he has already left?)

Or is there maybe a better way to go about doing this?

EDIT: Is there a way to hide players name? Or maybe if he takes control of a monster hide their name?

The player leaving the server fires an OnClientLeave module event. Detecting AFK is a bit harder, but you could do something like this..

// afktimer.nss
void main()
{
    object oPC = OBJECT_SELF;
    int timer = GetLocalInt(oPC, "AFK_TIMER") + 1;
    // check if player moved:
    location loc = GetLocation(oPC);
    if (loc != GetLocalLocation(oPC, "LAST_LOCATION"))
    {
        SetLocalLocation(oPC, "LAST_LOCATION", loc);
        timer = 0; // reset the timer
    }

    // If player is in combat, they're not AFKing:
    if (GetIsInCombat(oPC))
        timer = 0;

    // If they did nothing noteworthy for 10 rounds, they are AFK
    if (timer > 10)
    {
        HandlePlayerAFK(); // Player is AFK, do something.
    }
    else
    {
        SetLocalInt(oPC, "AFK_TIMER", timer);
        DelayCommand(6.0f /*seconds*/, ExecuteScript("afktimer"));
    }
}

There are more cases to handle. Such as, OnPlayerChat, you should call SetLocalInt(oPC, "AFK_TIMER", 0); to reset it if they are chatting, etc.

Hiding player names requires NWNX.

Another way to check for AFK, is store the player location in local var and check that against current location. If they haven't moved location, then they are probably afk.

Or are chatting with another player, or are in ranged combat/spellcasting, etc. If the time between checks is long enough it could work, but people routinely stay in the same place for 5-10 minutes.

This is theOnClientLeave from Trials of Newcastle 1.

(Obviously out of date now as we are building a new Newcastle, but you may get a few ideas from it. It refers to other systems too - I left those snippets there to show you how you can patch in your other systems.)

}

Player leave server, and player afk, hide players name.
