Other Client Instance Coordinates

Posted by JamSnack

I would like to know how I would be able to synchronize my instances with the same position of the instances of that of the gms_instance_get_owner()'s specific instance. I have been working on this for a while and I just can't seem to find a solution.

What I am trying to achieve with this task is the non-owned npcs to mp_step towards their syncd npcs in their owner's client. With my current code I have gotten this to work only when joining a game with existing npcs, and it seems to get less accurate the longer the session lasts. My npcs are fully synchronized as well but I cannot find a solution to this problem.

If you need my code please ask.

Thank you.

I'm not pretty sure if you are talking about pathfinding or anything related with it.
So, they are fully synced because when you join a room with existing npc's it seems to work.
I don't really understand if you pretend to create them with one client and making sure that the other ones see, if that's the case you'll probably have to use <code> gms_instance_sync() </code> without really caring about the owner (just because the owner var is synced it doesn't mean you've got to use it).
I still think that it would be less difficult if I had a chance to see your code.
Hope I helped :)

You should only move instances when gms_instance_is_owner() is true.

Movements from other clients will not be synced, and the object will start glitching.
