setimg light2.png;
drawaslight;
setcoloreffect 0,1,1,0.5;
setzoomeffect 1.5;
}

Elite looking blue light.

yes but hes talking about making them spin etc
making the spin is easy just use sin, cos

the light effects that move in circles
like the ones in birdbirds house

=D
 

thats the problem i want them moving i dont understand the cos thing

is lookie a word o.O

=)
 

yeah cool i see

bud how do i make it go spin arround or something like in the graaloween party level on 2k1 or like the water fall close to the crafting house:)

I just wish I could see em period

Re: Re: =D
 

you could use the move command to and put it in a timeout loop

?
 

mean this one








// NPC made by aylad
if (playerenters || wasthrown) {
// Initialize the this. variables
dirgo = {0,-1,-1,0,0,1,1,0};
timeout = 0.05;
this.walkmode = 1;
if (wasthrown && this.walkmode>1) this.walkmode = 1;
this.x1 = 0;
this.x2 = 63;
this.y1 = 0;
this.y2 = 63;
this.speed = 0.08;
this.mode = 0;
this.runcounter = int(random(10,40));
}

// Walking stuff
if (timeout && this.mode==0) { // WALKING
newx = x + dirgo[dir*2] * this.speed;
newy = y + dirgo[dir*2+1] * this.speed;
this.runcounter--;
if (this.walkmode==1) { // RANDOM
if (this.runcounter>0) {
testx = newx + 1.5 + dirgo[dir*2];
testy = newy + 2+ dirgo[dir*2+1];
if (onwall(testx,testy)) {
dir = (dir+2)%4;
this.runcounter = int(random(0,60));
} else {
x = newx;
y = newy;
}
} else {
this.runcounter = int(random(10,40));
dir = (dir+1+int(random(0,2))*2)%4;
}
} else if (this.walkmode==2) { // LEFTRIGHT
if (dir!=1 && dir!=3) dir = 3;
else {
x = newx;
y = newy;
if ((dir==1 && x<=this.x1) || (dir==3 && x>=this.x2))
dir = (dir+2)%4;
}
} else if (this.walkmode==3) { // UPDOWN
if (dir!=0 && dir!=2) dir = 2;
else {
x = newx;
y = newy;
if ((dir==0 && y<=this.y1) || (dir==2 && y>=this.y2))
dir = (dir+2)%4;
}
} else if (this.walkmode==4) { // RECTANGLE
x = newx;
y = newy;
if ((dir==0 && y<=this.y1) || (dir==1 && x<=this.x1) ||
(dir==2 && y>=this.y2) || (dir==3 && x>=this.x2))
dir = (dir+3)%4;
}
if (this.walkmode>1 && this.runcounter<=0)
this.runcounter = 20;
message;
timeout = 0.05;
}

uh...................
 

im trying to learn with getting examples, caus i cant understand much of the newbie scripters bible

got it
 

i gave the lights a walking script and it works fine thank u all for your good advise:D

use the predefined npc lights, then change the red, blue, and green values to something between 0 and 255

Are you talking about this:

NPC Code:

---

for(i = 0; i<25; i++;) {

 this.mv+=.25;

 this.x = 32+cos(this.mv)*5;

 this.y = 32+sin(this.mv)*5;

 showimg i,door.png,this.x,this.y;

}

---

?
cos and sin are reverse of eachother, so that means when cos is going up sin is going down on the same number. ;)

?
 

it doesnt really moves how can i make it move:)

whoops i just assumed 255, o well, thanks for correcting

.......
 

thats verry bad of i wouldnt ask if i knew caus i dont understand the hole thing only that apperently you get a circle if ya use sin and cos tell me plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

........
 

as many times as noobish scripters ask you:p
