hey everyone i had a freind start to make a GREy and a BLUE zone , the blue zone u died and lost 1/3 ur EXP and GREY u could die but u would lose nothing , my freind assumed the grey area was for an arena so he named it arena and when i die it says <name> has been killed by <name>.<name> has been defeted in the arena....i wnat it to say <name> has been killed by <killer> and i dont want a red name , and i know this is kinda a lot, but i know it wont take anyone with some skill more then 10 mins and it is almost stopping production on my game so could anyone do that for me please?

Search for the text that is said when you died. Then you will find that Call PlayerMsg and just change the text and color.

i did it i found it changed the text and color but there is one more thing it says getplayername (victim) on BOTH sides of the txt should i change number 2 to stop it from saying i killed myslef?

' Player is dead

Call GlobalMsg(GetPlayerName(Victim) & " was killed by " & GetPlayerName(Victim) & "." & (GetPlayerName(Victim) & " lost no EXP."), BrightRed)
Else
Call GlobalMsg(GetPlayerName(Victim) & " has been killed by " & GetPlayerName(Victim), BrightRed)
End If

You should not use Victim as the Index for both the killed and the killer. Check what more Index there is in that sub.

i know i dont want vitim and victim it says i kill myself >> i was asking what i put in to change that

you need to change it to attacker. This should work.


' Player is dead
If Map(GetPlayerMap(Victim)).Moral = MAP_MORAL_ARENA Then
Call GlobalMsg(GetPlayerName(Victim) & " was killed by " & GetPlayerName(Attacker) & "." & (GetPlayerName(Victim) & " lost no EXP."), BrightRed)
Else
Call GlobalMsg(GetPlayerName(Victim) & " has been killed by " & GetPlayerName(Attacker), BrightRed)
End If

heh, you need the sub: playerattackplayer (or something like that) and not npcattackplayer

There are only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.

Since we're looking for the npcs name, instead of a players name, and we already have a variable that holds the npcs name, which is "Name"

Just replace



With

omg this is sooo close i got it narrowd down now it works it says " <name> has been killed by <whateverkillsme> but then after that it says " <name has lost 0 EXP ........... this is that it looks like in the code side , and i try and delete it it gives me an error and stuff so any ideas?

I think the code you want is just below what you've circled. It's hard to tell. I don't really get what you're saying about EXP, and it's really easier if you post code instead of screen shots.

when i die it says "omally has been killed by a pigon. omally has lost no exp, im trying to get rid of that last part

you could change it to this:

If Map(GetPlayerMap(Victim)).Moral = MAP_MORAL_ARENA Then
Call GlobalMsg(GetPlayerName(Victim) & " has been killed by " & Name, BrightRed)
Else
Call GlobalMsg(GetPlayerName(Victim) & " has been killed by " & Name, BrightRed)
End If

Or, most simply, remove all that and just add this:

' Announce Players Death
Call GlobalMsg(GetPlayerName(Victim) & " has been killed by " & Name, BrightRed)
