Converting BasePlayer to ProtoBuf.PlayerNameID?

Hey there,

is there a way to convert BasePlayer to ProtoBuf.PlayerNameID and back?

 

There is no direct way, no. From what I remember, PlayerNameID only stores exactly what it says; the player's name and ID. You can create one using the info from baseplayer (their name and ID), but you can't convert these two.

 

Okay i changed a liddle bit code but it doesn't work.
This my way:

Code:

                        int t = 0;
                        ProtoBuf.PlayerNameID pl = new ProtoBuf.PlayerNameID();
                        pl.userid = players[0].userID;
                        pl.username = players[0].displayName;
                        List<AutoTurret> turrets = Component.FindObjectsOfType<AutoTurret>().ToList();
                        foreach (AutoTurret turret in turrets)
                        {
                            if (turret.OwnerID == player.OwnerID)
                            {
                                if (!turret.authorizedPlayers.Contains(pl))
                                {
                                    turret.authorizedPlayers.Add(pl);
                                    turret.SendNetworkUpdateImmediate();
                                    t++;
                                }
                            }
                        }
                        players[0].SendNetworkUpdateImmediate();

WHats wrong with it?

 

I believe the problem is that PlayerNameIDs are still 'unique', so you can't just create a new one and check if it exists.

You can also check if a player is authed by simply doing turret.IsAuthed(Player), where Player is BasePlayer.

If you need to do a check through authorizedPlayers, you can do this (using LINQ):

Code:

var isAuthed = turret.authorizedPlayers.FirstOrDefault(p => p.userid == player.userID) != null;

 

Mhh thanks but it doesnt work. I get 0 players.

Code:

                        ProtoBuf.PlayerNameID pl = new ProtoBuf.PlayerNameID();
                        pl.userid = players[0].userID;
                        pl.username = players[0].displayName;
                        List<AutoTurret> turrets = Component.FindObjectsOfType<AutoTurret>().ToList();
                        foreach (AutoTurret turret in turrets)
                        {
                            if (turret.OwnerID == player.OwnerID)
                            {
                                var isAuthed = turret.authorizedPlayers.FirstOrDefault(p => p.userid == players[0].userID) != null;
                                if (isAuthed)
                                {
                                    turret.authorizedPlayers.Remove(pl);
                                    turret.SendNetworkUpdateImmediate();
                                    t++;
                                }
                            }
                        }

Is there a Field of WhiteList players same as a codelock?

 

Ahh now i know wthats wrong.

List<AutoTurret> turrets = Component.FindObjectsOfType<AutoTurret>().ToList();
There i get all autoturrets. BUT if i check:
if (turret.OwnerID == player.OwnerID)

i get false back. So the OwnerID in the turret is null. But why?

 

I'm not sure. Are these turrets being placed normally, or are they being placed through a plugin? If normally, I'm not sure why they would lack an owner ID.

 

Code:

if ((turret as BaseEntity).OwnerID == player.OwnerID)
