And here is the button script to move the player’s game piece:
on mouseUp
put cd fld "username" of cd 1 into tTargetPlayer
put the loc of cd btn tTargetPlayer into tTargetPlayerLoc
put 1 into x
repeat 15
put the id of cd button ( "Button" && x ) & return after GameSpots
add 1 to x
end repeat
put 1 into x
repeat for number of lines in GameSpots
if the loc of btn id (line x of GameSpots) is tTargetPlayerLoc then
put the short name of button id (line x of GameSpots) into tLabels
end if
add 1 to x
end repeat
put char 1 to 2 of word 2 of tLabels into tCurrentSpot
put tCurrentSpot + (cd fld "DiceRoll") into tButton
if tButton > 15 then
put 1 into tButton
move cd button tTargetPlayer to the loc of cd button ("Button" && tButton)
put urlEncode(tTargetPlayer) into tUsername
put urlEncode("Button" && tButton) into tButtonSpot
put "username=" & tUsername &"&ButtonSpot=" & tButtonSpot into tArgList
post tArgList to URL "http://jpatten.on-rev.com/superdupergame/moveplayer.lc";
put it --into tData
else
move cd button tTargetPlayer to the loc of cd button ("Button" && tButton)
put urlEncode(tTargetPlayer) into tUsername
put urlEncode("Button" && tButton) into tButtonSpot
put "username=" & tUsername &"&ButtonSpot=" & tButtonSpot into tArgList
post tArgList to URL "http://jpatten.on-rev.com/superdupergame/moveplayer.lc";
put it --into tData
end if
end mouseUp
