Does $userid represent a certain value from the db?

[revloc02c]

I was trying to use $userid to pass a parameter into a SQL stored procedure in my db. I expected the value to be from the id column of my toon in the character_ table (which = 1) but got something completely different (53?). I am wondering if the value contained in the $userid variable corresponds to a column in some table of the db, or does it come from somewhere else entirely (perhaps generated on the client side?). Anyone know?

It looks like it is just a number that increments as things are added to the entity list.

Try Client::AccountID()

Yes, it is an entity id. If you want the true characterid from the database, you should use $client->CharacterID()

Ah-ha, that makes sense. Thanks.

And thanks, just what I needed.

It looks like that gets exported as $charid as well.

Sure enough, works like a charm too. Sheesh, I prolly shoulda just tried that. Thanks again lerxst.

I looked hard for it here (http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=QuestTutorial) under the "Variables" section but it is not listed. Should it be added in there?

[lerxst2112]

Yeah, probably, but there may be others missing. I found it digging through the code, but it's on the list here as well. http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=QuestCheatSheet

If you search the code for "ExportVar" you can find them all. Some depend on which event is being triggered, but they're all pretty much in that one function.

Yes, it was missing, so I just went ahead and added it. Anyone is welcome to create a wiki account and add/edit pages as needed, FYI.

Ah okay, I didn't look there. Heh, just used to looking in the one place.

Good info, thanks lerxst. I am sure I'll use that sometime.

Oh, I didn't know that. I need to look into it, thanks Trev.
