Server Hook

[vrmp]

Hi all,

I'm trying to create a seperate DLL file for ascent which reads several settings from a config file. This works all like it should, but I'm also trying to adjust the players speed (run/swim/fly) when they login.
At the moment I have changed this in the ascent core itself, but I would prefer if I could add this in my own config file and change it a bit more easy.
I have tried hooking it to the event: SERVER_HOOK_EVENT_ON_ENTER_WORLD
and use the following for changing the speed (picked this up from level1.cpp) pPlayer->SetPlayerSpeed(RUN, STARTING_RUNSPEED);
STARTING_RUNSPEED is the float value read from my config file.

I'm a beginner with C++, so maybe some of the experts here could give me a hand and tell me it is possible at all or I just should forget it.

its much easier if your just edit in your core, in player.h edit these defines:

#define PLAYER_NORMAL_RUN_SPEED 7.0f
#define PLAYER_NORMAL_SWIM_SPEED 4.722222f
#define PLAYER_NORMAL_FLIGHT_SPEED 7.0f
#define MONSTER_NORMAL_RUN_SPEED 8.0f

Yes, I know these settings. I'm using them at the moment.
But like I said im creating a custom DLL which has several features read from a config file (level,gold,rep,skills etc) and was hoping I could also use this file for a speed modification.
Thnx for the reply, I'll just leave it like it is then.
