Loading script problem.

[Moofie]

Alright, i'll check that out. One thing, I made a simple script, and by simple I mean like total beginner script, only made it during a few tutorials I read.

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/php
<?php
$sui = DEATH_SUICIDE
IF ($sui = DEATH_SUICIDE){
"SPAWN_ZONE death 10 10 4 1 5 5 true 15 15 2 3"
}
php?>

How's it look? I have no experience in php, but i'm trying to learn it.

not sure what you tried to do, but you're not gonna accomplish it
you've done basically every wrong what you could have done wrong

here's what I guess you wanted to do, written in proper PHP

Code: Select all

#!usr/bin/php
<?php
while (true)
{
    //read the input
    $line = rtrim(fgets(STDIN, 1024));
    
    //check if line starts with DEATH_SUICIDE
    if(preg_match("/^DEATH_SUICIDE/",$line)) {
        //it does, so spawn a zone
        echo "SPAWN_ZONE death 10 10 4 1 5 5 true 15 15 2 3\n";  // don't forget the \n at the end of every line!
        
    }
    
    //sleep one second and continue reading
    sleep(1000);
}
?>

Oh.. lol oops. I just figured i'd have it spawn a death zone if you commit suicide, its the only thing I could think of to test lol. Hm, guess I got some more learning to do

A few issues with your code: (1) fgets is a blocking call, so the sleep at the end of the loop is unnecessary. (2) You aren't checking for EOF (the script will never terminate if killed by KILL_SCRIPT). (3) Not really an issue, but the length parameter for fgets is optional. Here's a corrected version:

Code: Select all

#!usr/bin/php
<?php

while (true)
{
    //read the input
    $line = rtrim(fgets(STDIN));

    if (feof(STDIN))
        break;
    
    //check if line starts with DEATH_SUICIDE
    if(preg_match("/^DEATH_SUICIDE/",$line)) {
        //it does, so spawn a zone
        echo "SPAWN_ZONE death 10 10 4 1 5 5 true 15 15 2 3\n";  // don't forget the \n at the end of every line!
        
    }
}
?>

well I copycated this from the ct wiki so I thought it would be ok

Never understood why it was necessary to sleep at the end.

lol you guys don't need to put an effort into correcting, it was just my noob learning test script
