Talk:Locality in Multiplayer

Should we add here a list of commands and there locality or should we do that in the list of all scripting commands? --T_D 19:33, 21 July 2006 (CEST)

I would say both. It's good to have a placeholder with all the commands with specific locality behaviour, isn't it? Whisper 23:46, 21 July 2006 (CEST)

I have removed following rule

- AI units in a vehicle under player's command are local to player's PC.

The rule is simply not true. AI units are always local where their leader is local. (This is necessary for them to communicate properly)

Could someone create a table for global and local commands? I dont know how to do it. --T_D 00:39, 22 July 2006 (CEST)

I wouldn't list it in a table, but rather create a template and write the locality into the entry of each command itself. --hardrock 13:38, 24 July 2006 (CEST)

see Whisper's comment above ;) --T_D 14:06, 24 July 2006 (CEST)

A table or simply a list of exceptions? Adding comment in a table is not easy, and often, cases are rather dodgy. moveInXXX need their unit argument to be local, setFog has its effects local, specific eventHandlers (hit, killed) are only triggered where unit is local, etc... this needs explanations. Is it feasible in table?

After thinking about it, perhaps only a list links to the commands that have specific locality behavior in their description.Whisper 14:26, 24 July 2006 (CEST)

I have a complete list with the different locality behaviours of all commands. These exceptions apply for almost any command, so I really think it should be better to have a section "Multiplayer Behaviour" for each specific command. --hardrock 14:34, 24 July 2006 (CEST)

I agree with that -> table deleted --T_D 14:39, 24 July 2006 (CEST)
