Re: How to handle gathering. - Robin - 23-06-2008
Do you want it set per tile or per player?

Just make it so when the player stands on the tile, GetTickCount is saved to any empty Data* that is there, then whenever someone else stands on it do something like this:
Code:
If Tile.Data3 + 10000 > GetTickCount then
CAN HARVEST
else
ALREADY HARVESTED
end ifRe: How to handle gathering. - Robin - 23-06-2008
Server. The entire thing should be serverside.

I have a question (sorry, I'm trying to learn a little bit of coding) would this bit of code activate only when you walk onto the tile, as long as you are standing on the tile, or would it depend on where you placed the code? Any explanation to a response would be appreciated.

Depends on where you place the code. This bit is probably activated by player action, such as standing on the tile and hitting enter, or using an item, such as a scythe or hoe, in front of or next to the tile.
What it definitely does do though, is make a player wait a certain amount of time (tile.Data3 + 10000) before someone can perform the action (harvesting) again. In this case, it looks like gettickcount is being stored in the tile's .Data3
