how to set data to client..

i thought the code below should have worked... but it actually crashes the game.... is there anything wrong? Thank you!

PHP Code:


		
			
clientdata_t *pPlayer = NULL;
pPlayer->health = 20;

PHP Code:


		
			
void testfx(void)
{
    clientdata_t *pPlayer = NULL;
    pPlayer->health = 20;
}

void HUD_Init(void)
{
    gEngfuncs.pfnAddCommand("noooo", testfx);
    return gExportfuncs.HUD_Init();
}

Re: how to set data to client..

And I'll explain why your original snippet crashed: You were trying to set data at an invalid memory address (NULL aka 0x0 + offset of "health"), NULL is an invalid address meaning in lazy terms "No memory", don't confuse my lazy meaning with "Out of Memory".
