Code Error

[NoobMapmaker]

Anyone know why this line of code is an error? WE says it has syntax error, can someone point out to me why?

call CamSwitch(GetPlayerId(GetForLoopIndexA()))

constant native GetPlayerId takes player whichPlayer returns integer

You need to put in a player, not an integer

Try this
call CamSwitch(GetPlayerId(Player(GetForLoopIndexA())))

Probably be more efficient if your camswitch took in a playeri nstead of an integer

call CamSwitch(Player(GetForLoopIndexA()))

Those two lines still give me same syntax errors, I couldnt save.

Wow really, that isn't any more efficient. Its just luxury to use a player instead.

well

    call CamSwitch(GetPlayerId(Player(bj_forLoopAIndex)))

Should work.

Should work.

Except....all the native camera commands take in players as arguments, not an integer. It was under the assumption that CamSwitch standsfor camera switch.

Regardless, if substituting in the variable does not work, I suggest you post your actual camswitch function

function CamSwitch takes integer owner returns nothing
    call Cam.switch(owner)
endfunction

From my camera system:

I just do this to the main system instead earlier and it seem to work.

 local integer i = 0
         loop            
         exitwhen i > 11            
         call Cam.create(i)
         call CamSwitch(i)
         set i = i+1        
         endloop

Well yeah, that does work. But why create it for everyone and instantly disable it? Huh, I don't know what you're planning to do, so whatever. I'm happy if it works.

Just disabling it at start and I added an option to activate it.
