RFC - Sender info

[Frooxius]

Hello!

I would like to ask if there's a way to easily get the sender info on RFC, so I know which player it came from. I have tried adding Player as the last parameter of the function (similarly how Unity Networking does it), but this doesn't seem to work.

I have searched all around, but I can't find if there's a way to do this automatically or if I have to manually send the player ID whenever sending RFC.

send the playerid and use TNManager.GetPlayer

assuming that the player is in the same channel.

or, as suggested in a tnet thread (and how i do it now).  when a player enters the channel broadcast a request to get all player's info and store their info in a list for reference.

the request tells everyone that you have arrived and in return you get a response from all players.

1. [RFC]
2. void RFC_Request_PlayerList(int playerid, int channelid, string playername, int level, int profession, int team, int guildid, string guildname, int avatar)
3. {
4.        
5.         if (playername != TNManager.playerName)
6.         {
7.                 tno.Send("RFC_Response_PlayerList", playername, TNManager.playerID, etc, etc);
8.         }
9. }
10.

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping I could avoid that though, since now I have to rely on each player to provide their ID accurately as a parameter, which could lead to potential errors (or abuse).

tno.Send("FunctionName", player, <parameters>)

"player" is a TNet.Player.

You can also specify a Player ID instead. There is no need to use a name. Check all TNObject.Send functions available to you.
