Triggeraction
 

Hey guys, need some assistance. I have used triggeraction many times and it has worked many times for me. But im trying to make lighteffects spin around a character, but so it will show to all. Example if some player has this NPC enabled, than all the other Players in the level will be able to see the lighteffects spinning around the player with the NPC Enabled.

But it doesnt seem to work, could anyone give me an example on how to fix this, and make it work. Please and thank you very much, been working on this NPC all day and cant figure it out.

use an index over 200 for the showimg o_O?

If it's for pay-to-play I'd use getplayer, playerx, and playery.

im confused, do you want it to show for everyone in the level??

You can do it with showimgs, or with gani scripts.
Showimg will be laggy when displaying many
lights on many players, but will work everywhere.
You just have to do showimg index,image,x,y;
with index between 1 and 199.

Gani scripts are not laggy, but you will need
to make special ganis that hold the script
like lightswalk.gani, lightsidle.gani, and then
call replaceani idle,lightsidle; and replaceani
walk,lightswalk;
Inside the ganis add a script like this:

SCRIPT
if (playerenters || timeout) {
showimg 200,light2.png,playerx-2,playery-2;
changeimgcolors 200,1,1,1,0.99;
changeimgvis 200,3;
timeout = 0.05;
}
SCRIPTEND

Such ganiss are currently only allowed on servers with
npcserver (p2p servers).

gani scripting??

o my lord, how could i not know this


can it handle all of the regular gscript commands??

u mean that triggeraction and hitobjects can be included in ganis??

Hmmm
 

I have tried Gani scripts before, didnt work. But I will try that though since Stefan said its the best way. Im making some spells for my Mage Class, all the spells will use lighteffects and what not. Well, thanx guys. :D

show img and its modifiers will work
this.vars
playerx playerx x and y will work
All the #P<number> will work
and play <sound>; will work too. basically thats it.

so you cant make a script persay inside a gani, just showimgs and play sounds.

that helps alot, thanks

This should probably be in the new ideas forum, but why not add Gani scripting to the Grall Shop program rather than manually editing it

hmm
 

So I can use Showimg in Ganis, but will I be able to use Magnatude and Cos ?

me likes this idea
