Player.createAreas?

Miwarre · Sep 5th 2016

Am I overlooking something or in the new API there is no equivalent of the 'old' LUA Player:createAreas(), Player:showAllAreas(), Player:hideAreas()... methods?

Are they going to be implemented later or have been they replaced by something else I do not see (WorldElement?) ?

EDIT: same for Player:enable/disableMarkingSelector()...

I think it's part of the area protection and will be implemented with it.
If there was no other script which nearly same commands.

Thanks, @Deirdre, for your reply but I do not really understand it.

Those methods are not "part of the area protection"; they are (were? will be?) part of the API; they were used by area protection script(s) and by other LUA scripts (portals and my TELevator, as I know of). I hope they will be part of the Java API too or replaced by something equivalent.

Hm, never used portals and televator, only areaprotection.
Let's hope somebody is converting the other scripts, too.

I am converting TELevator right now, but I am kind of stuck for the lack of those methods.

The API is not finished yet and has some things missing i guess they will be added to the API at some point. making any of the scripts will be very hard to do with out those methods oO
