why does removeFromWorld(); not work on mulitplayer with zombie objects?

[nolanri]

i use the code

 

for i=0, closeobjects:size()-1 do   
closeobjects:get(i):removeFromWorld();
getPlayer():getCurrentSquare():addCorpse( IsoDeadBody.new(closeobjects:get(i), false), false);

end

 

to basically change near by zombies into corpses by first removing the zombie and then adding his corpse after.

It works fine on single player. but on multiplayer the real zombie stays even though the corpse appears and no error was given


any help please?

OH

 

transmitRemoveItemFromSquare(IsoObject obj)

 

is for Objects when i assumed it was for "inventoryItems"

this should work

[nolanri]

no still doesnt work on multiplayer.  the zombie is still there, even if I move off the loaded cell and come back.

so how does one remove a zombie off of the server on multiplayer?

Are you talking about dead corpses?

 

If so, there's a "HoursForCorpseRemoval=" parameter into the server's config file. You just set the amount of PZhours that the area must remain unseen for the corpse to be removed from the server...

no this is for the Drivable cars mod im working on. want to kill and or knock down zombies the car collides with.

So far on single player the car "kills" zombies it collides with. by removing the zombies and then adding a corpse. BUT for some reason this does not work on multiplayer the zombie remains even though the corpse is made. and there was no lua error.
