    Alright, so here's the deal. With the help of Rob I've managed to customize and work on a new class, which can teleport, and after many hours I managed to make the teleport create a fire trail/effect that sets stuff on fire.


    The thing is, it works only when I run the game via "runlocalhost", because if I host a game with the class everything but the teleport effects work (as shown here). Any idea of what could be causing it?

    this is because using getControls().isKeyJustPressed( KEY_KEY_R ) is clientside (inside of Pyroteleport.as). like geti said in the other thread, you need to sync it from client to server. when you press that button, the server never returns that if statement as true, so the firewalk blob is never created because you cant create blobs on client. I am willing to bet that "Can't create blobs on client" is spammed in console every time you teleport

    now, im not sure if this is how you would do it exactly, but you can try to sync it like this:

    Thanks for the quick reply. It looks like it'll take me some time to get it right, as I can't get it to sync properly. On the mean time using the taunts key does the job, so I'll keep trying
