Issue with reading Guild property

[zerodowned]

I added a new property to Guild.cs and am trying to read the property with another script

PlayerMobile pm = (PlayerMobile)m;
pm.Guild.NewProperty;

but i get this error

Line 113: 'Server.Guilds.BaseGuild' does not contain a definition fo
r 'NewProperty' and no extension method 'NewProperty' accepting a first argument o
f type 'Server.Guilds.BaseGuild' could be found (are you missing a using directi
ve or an assembly reference?)

Why is it trying to read from BaseGuild when i'm referencing the player's guild?

does the New property need to be in BaseGuild in order to work.. thats what its looking like hehe

No,
Baseguild only records the guild name and abbreviation everything else is in guild.cs

hmm after looking at Guild.cs sure it wouldnt be....
pm.Guilds.NewProperty;

might be why it doesnt see it

namespace Server.Guilds
{

that's the namespace, not the class but thank you for helping

i ended up adding support for the new property to baseguild

Try

var g = pm.Guild as Guild;
if(g!=null)
{
   Console.WriteLine(g.NewProperty);
}

The reason being that the property "Guild" in Mobile is a reference to a BaseGuild and not a guild. You have to first cast it to a guild to access properties inside the guild class.

If the code you are writing is in the core, then yes you must add it to BaseGuild.

Works perfectly - the code seems redundant but I understand the reason for writing it that way.

Thank you Jack
