Member Function Documentation

Respawn()

void item_generic::Respawn ( void )

virtual

Server: Called when the entity first spawns or when game-logic requests the entity to return to its original spawn state.

Reimplemented from ncRenderableEntity.

Restore()

void item_generic::Restore ( string keyName, string setValue )

virtual

Similar to ncIO::SpawnKey() but for save-game fields.

Whatever you write into file handles within your ncIO::Save() method needs to be read back in here.

Reimplemented from ncRenderableEntity.

Save()

void item_generic::Save ( float handle )

virtual

Handles saving a copy of this entity to a given filehandle.

Within you want to use the ncIO::SaveFloat() etc. methods to write the internal member attributes to the specified file handle.

Reimplemented from ncRenderableEntity.

SpawnKey()

void item_generic::SpawnKey ( string keyName, string setValue )

virtual

This method handles entity key/value pairs on map load.

You can easily convert the strValue parameter using the ReadFloat etc. methods that are part of ncIO.

Reimplemented from ncRenderableEntity.
