Check if player is in region

Hey.

I'm making a plugin for an event and I need to check every second what players are in a zone between to points.

Say you have PointA at 100, 100, 100 and PointB at -100, 0, -100. I need to be able to check what players are in that region every second so I can award them points.

I've tried searching around but I can't find anything so I hope you can help.

Thanks, PsychoTea

 

If the region can be a sphere you could use Zone manager.

 

Yes this plugin was made for exactly those situations ^^
If you need exemples on how to implement it you have all the plugins that require it: (Hotel, EventManager, etc)
And you can ask here i'll gladly help
[DOUBLEPOST=1441091137][/DOUBLEPOST]ZoneManager can be used just to detect players in zone, No need to set any options

 

use Vector3.Distance(pos1, pos2)

 

Ah ok, could you give me a few examples of how to use it please?

 

I can give you an example about Vector3.Distance ...
if(Vector3.Distance(player.transform.position, target.transform.position) < radius)
{
//Your stuff
}

 

Ah I see. That's working around a center point. I will try that, thanks.

EDIT: although how would I check which players are in that zone every second? ZoneManager has an event for it...

 

pain this is not the best way to do it ^^ especially if you have a lot of players

i'll make you something when i can

 

Don't worry, I've got that, I just have 2 questions.

1) Here is my code:

Code:

        void Unload()
        {
            ZoneManager.Call("EraseZone", "hill1");
            ZoneManager.Call("EraseZone", "hill2");
            ZoneManager.Call("EraseZone", "hill3");
            ZoneManager.Call("EraseZone", "hill4");
            ZoneManager.Call("EraseZone", "hill5");
            ZoneManager.Call("EraseZone", "KingSpawn");
        }

For some reason, I get the error:

Code:

[Error] Failed to call hook 'Unload' on plugin 'KingoftheHill v1.0.0' (NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object)

Do you know how I could fix that?

2) When specifying a zone via the commands of your plugin, it creates a red circle around the circunference of the zone. Is there a way I can use that in my plugin for when you're creating a zone? Eg a hook or even the source code to do it?

Thanks, PsychoTea (Ben)
