X-Mas House
 

I am thinking about making X-Mas set of levels, and also make it like an entery for my LAT Aplication, though there are some things that stop me!

1. Graal2002 on X-Mas and in it'z first minutes there will be all P2P accounts (That'll be funny), anyhow then who the hell needs thouse lvls and bowling ally?

2. I still don't get how to make those dumb light effects... so How do i do em?

Re: X-Mas House
 

For light effects just use drawaslight,setcoloreffect, and for setcoloreffect, pick values between 0 and 1..

Re: Re: X-Mas House
 

but those light effects are boring
we want light effects that flash, move in circles, move in all directions

SPUDAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I tried light effects but i dont know if they worked cos i cant see em on my com bbbbbboooooooooooooooooo hhhhhhooooooooooooooooooo hhhhhhhhhhhoooooooooo

Re: Re: Re: Re: X-Mas House
 

mwuhahaha
i can do all kinda light effects
flashy, spinny, moving anywhere,
but i still cant do the exploding ones :(

anyone know how to make a command repeat its self? if i knew then i could complete my light effects that move.

timeout

could you explain? i just watched about 4hrs of t.v. and im so damm brain dead!!!!!! i dont know how im breathing right now!!!

if (timeout) {
*code;
}
timeout = 0.1 <---- thats the lowest timeout can be

got ya

except the timeout would have to be inside the brackets for it to loop.

heres what i got maybe you could add it in because i tried your idea and it doesnt work
i also tried putting the timeout = 0.1 inside the brackets but still it doesnt work

if (created) {
drawaslight;
dontblock;
setzoomeffect 1;
setcoloreffect 1,0,0,.99;
}
if (playerenters && timeout==0) {
sleep 0.1;
y=37.5;
sprite=1;
dir=2;
sleep 0.05;........

.........sleep 0.05;
sprite=0;
}

then i tried

if (created) {
drawaslight;
dontblock;
setzoomeffect 1;
setcoloreffect 1,0,0,.99;
}
if (playerenters && timeout==0) {
sleep 0.1;
y=37.5;
sprite=1;
dir=2;
sleep 0.05;........

.........sleep 0.05;
sprite=0;
}
timeout = 0.1;

also

f (created) {
drawaslight;
dontblock;
setzoomeffect 1;
setcoloreffect 1,0,0,.99;
}
if (playerenters && timeout==0) {
sleep 0.1;
y=37.5;
sprite=1;
dir=2;
sleep 0.05;........

.........sleep 0.05;
sprite=0;
timeout = 0.1;
}

you don't need to check to see if timeout is assigned a value, just make it

NPC Code:

---

timeout=.1;

if(playerenters&&timeout){

//other code in here;

timeout=.1;

}

---

if (created) {
drawaslight;
dontblock;
setzoomeffect 1;
setcoloreffect 1,0,0,.99;
}

if (timeout) {
sleep 0.1;
y=37.5;
sprite=1;
dir=2;
sleep 0.05;........

.........sleep 0.05;
sprite=0;
}

timeout = 0.1

No. You need a timeout inside the timeout for it to loop, and another to initialize the timeout before the timeout code.

both of those dont work

Well, you also haven't shown us a complete code yet. Unless your code has those "......." in it, which would probably screw up your code.

try taking the sprite=1 out
why you have it there i have no idea

its a recording code
i press alt+6 start recording then alt+7 to stop
i take the recorede script (saved as a txt in levels folder) i add the script into the light effect script and there i have a moving light but i want it to repeat
the ...... are where i made breaks in the script so i could fit it in here because its very long

dont use
if (playerenters && timeout=0) which is WRONG

just use

if (timeout) {
code
}
timeout = 0.1

ill try it
and pray

great! it works except for a little jolt type thing at the end when it starts over and it skips some lines but other than that it worked

its probally the way youve done it
if youve made it go round in circles by changing the x,y its VERY scrappy
if youve made it move in random directions its VERY scrappy

i kept the same script but made the
if (playerenters && timeout==0)
into
if (timeout)
and added
timeout = 0.1
on the bottom

yes but what im saying is making it move by changing the x and y is a very scrappy way to do it

it works though

yes it works
but
a) there are better ways to do it
b) it is a lot harder to edit
c) there isnt a C yet
