Entering and Leavinging a Car/Tank/... in an FPS

Closed

Hey guys.

I'm currently making a Multiplayer FPS and I thought about implementing driveable Vehicles. So I made some scripts and they work when there is just one player on a server. But immediatly after another one connects to it it starts bugging out.

The bug is that when you dismount the vehicle the player is stuck in the vehicles-graphic and all of the weapons are equipped. Also the vehicle and the player flies out of the map while spassing out.

The current bug is described in the edit at the end of the question.

Like I said everything works totally fine when there is just one player on the server.

Another thing is that when a player gets into the vehicle and moves around with it the other players don't see it moving and the player does not disappear and stands still.

I hope the demo makes my problem more clear.

Here are the scripts I used:

 var InVehicle: boolean=false;
 var Vehicle: GameObject;
 var cam : Transform;
 function Start () {
 if(!networkView.isMine)
 enabled=false;
 
 cam=Camera.main.transform;
 }
 
 
            ...//The following part gets executed when you press the Use-Key and a raycast hits a car in a predefined range
 
         InVehicle=true;
         Vehicle= hit.collider.gameObject; //gets the gameobject of the vehicle
         
         Vehicle.GetComponent(VehicleMovementScript).enabled=true; // Gets the Movementscript of the vehicle which is also in this question
         if(networkView.isMine)
             Vehicle.Find("DriverCam").GetComponent(Camera).enabled=true;
         var VehicleNV: NetworkView = Vehicle.GetComponent(NetworkView);
         var PlayerObjectNV : NetworkView = PlayerObject.GetComponent(NetworkView);
         VehicleNV.RPC("GetPlayer", RPCMode.AllBuffered, PlayerObjectNV.viewID); //sends the player's viewid to the vehicle
         PlayerObject.SetActiveRecursively(false); // Deactivates the Player
         
         ...
 
 @RPC
 function Dismount() // gets called by the Vehicle when pressed the Use-Key while mounted
 {
 InVehicle=false;
 if(Vehicle!=null){
 
         Vehicle.GetComponent(VehicleMovementScript).enabled=false;
         if(networkView.isMine)
         Vehicle.Find("DriverCam").GetComponent(Camera).enabled=false;
         
 Vehicle=null;
 }
 }

This is the script attached to the player. Its called "VehiclePlayer".

Here is the script "VehicleMovementScript" attached to the vehicle. Its just a cube with a rigidbody and to empty gameobjects. One for the driver and one for the playerDismount.

 var Driver : GameObject;
 var mounted:boolean=false;
 
 function Start () {
 if(!networkView.isMine&&!Driver.networkView.isMine)
 enabled=false;
 }
 
 
 
 function Update () {
 
 

//Here would be the part that lets the car move

 if(Input.GetButtonDown("Use")&&mounted&&networkView.isMine){
 Driver.SetActiveRecursively(true);
 mounted=false;
 Driver.transform.position=transform.Find("DriverDismount").transform.position;
 
 Driver.Find("Main Camera").Find("Weapons").GetComponent(NetworkView).RPC("Dismount",RPCMode.AllBuffered);
 Driver.Find("Main Camera").Find("Weapons").GetComponent(NetworkView).RPC("Reselect",RPCMode.AllBuffered);
 }
 }
 
 @RPC
 function GetPlayer(PlayerObj:NetworkViewID){
 var DriverNV=NetworkView.Find(PlayerObj);
 Driver= DriverNV.observed.gameObject.gameObject;
 mounted=true;
 }

This script calls a function called "Reselect" which is attached to the same gameobject as "VehiclePlayer". This function should select the weapons which are picked up by the player.

Here is the info You recommended I add to the question. It's what I answered to the first answer:

"1. I changed the position the driver dismount various times and 2. It works when only one player is connected, the server. It just starts bugging out when the 2nd player is connected."

I hope someone can help me and debug my code because I couldn't figure it out by myself until this point.

EDIT:

I made some efforts:

I had a line in my update which sets the player at the position of the vehicledriver-Object. I deleted this line and now after leaving the "car" the player gets dismounted like I want him to. The only problem is that the Reselect function gets called at the wrong player. I mean:

Player A gets in Car 1 and dismounts, Reselect wasn't called at player A. Now if player B gets in Car 2 (because car 1 is not mountable at this point[not intended])...and dismounts the Reselect function gets called at player A not at Player B. The same thing happens when Player A then mounts and dismounts Car 1 (which then is mountable again. Car 2 isn't).
