Quick question. How would i make a light2.png follow me?

Back in my day we would make a gani and then use replaceani when the weapon was fired, not sure if that is the case now.

Elaborate on what you want to do. Sounds to me like you want to put a GANI in a player attribute.

I want to have a light effect follow me like a glow around a player.

Care to extend on that at all?

use gani or settime then try so thats changing the x or y position

The best method is using a player.attr[n] and a gani script with findimg and the attachtoowner variable set.

yourlightaura.gani

PHP Code:


		
			
SCRIPT

function onCreated() {

  with (findimg(200)) {

    x = player.x;

    y = player.y;

    layer = 1;

    attachtoowner = true;  // Attaches the light to the player.

    image = "light2.png";

    red = 0;

    blue = 0;

    green = 1;

    alpha = 0.99;

  }

}

SCRIPTEND

then in a weapon you can set the gani to player's attr:

PHP Code:


		
			
//#CLIENTSIDE

function onCreated() {

  player.attr[2] = "yourlightaura.gani";

}

Also valid is using light2.png as a sprite in your lantern gani, and setting it's COLOREFFECT.
