Script ::onAdd()

by Ron Yacketta · in Torque Game Engine · 08/07/2003 (10:18 am) · 5 replies

I just noticed a little oddity and was wondering if this is FAD (Functioning As Designed)

I added a errof() at the beginning of an ::create and a subsequent ::onAdd and noticed this

::create
::onAdd()
::onAdd()

why if blue blazes is ::onAdd being called twice???

I *think* that this is the onAdd()-code of the object's parent object that you see here, hence the two calls. They are still two different functions though.

Yes... depends on where you put the errorf but Josef is hopefully right. :)

Not only that but onAdd is called server and client side. If you weren't joining a server then that would be the reason for the second call.

Yeah, I discovered that after many headaches. The first one would be server, the second client.

I agree with Robert, happens also when you just fire up TGE and run a mission from your local computer. In essense that is a local client connecting to a loacal server which calls onAdd() twice.

Same goes of onSleep()
