ServerIn a gamemode, we want a command to change the marker color in the configuration file.
config.xml:
<config>
<markers color="255,100,0" />
</config>
Lua code:
config = xmlLoadFile("config.xml")
function changeConfigMarkerColor(thePlayer, command, r, g, b)
local markernode = xmlFindChild(config, "markers", 0)
xmlNodeSetAttribute(markernode, "color", r .. "," .. g .. "," .. b)
end
addCommandHandler("markercolor", changeConfigMarkerColor)
Note that this example only changes the in-memory XML document. If you want to save the changed document back to the hard drive, use xmlSaveFile.
