As the title suggests, he is a collection of commonly made mistakes.
Good to know:
- You can reload client scripts without restarting server. Very useful for unit testing function.
Common mistakes:
Pitfalls:
- When a character is offline (and enough time passes?) or server resets, it's object (Critter& player) will be freed. Thus a Critter& player object can become a null reference exception on a timer, stucking some value indefinitely. Always use ID's instead of objects to get game variables, etc.
- Using Critter.Stat[SK_SMALL_GUNS] for Skills, instead of Critter.Skill[SK_SMALL_GUNS].
OO related:
- You cannot load sprites images in class constructor. Wasted 2 days on that.
