Showani question
 

Is it possible to make showani have different attiributes (head, shield, etc) than the npc that calls it?

What i want is one npc which uses showani and shows 2 differnt npc's.

Something like this:

NPC Code:

---

if (created) {

  // Initialize the attributes

  showcharacter;

  setcharprop #3,head0.png;

  setcharprop #C0,orange;

  setcharprop #C1,white;

  setcharprop #C2,blue;

  setcharprop #C3,red;

  setcharprop #C4,black;

  setcharprop #2,shield1.gif;

  shieldpower = 1;

  dir = 2;

   showani 100,x+4,y,6,idle;

  setcharprop #3,head10.png;

  setcharprop #C0,cynober;

  setcharprop #C1,yellow;

  setcharprop #C2,white;

  setcharprop #C3,black;

  setcharprop #C4,white;

  setcharprop #2,shield1.gif;

  showani 101,x+6,y,6,idle;

}

---

That's just a basic example. I want this for a tailor script. I want to display quite a few possible outfits using showani but have them shown at once. Then have the player click on them.

I have the basis of it done but got stuck because i can only show one outfit using the weapon npc. When you do setcharprop (or this.attribute = whatever) it updates every showani with the new attributes.

Is it possible to show 2 different outfits using the weapon npc?

Thanks.

GS2 only.

thanks. :D

I can't get it to work.

I just created this very basic npc and it doesn't work.

NPC Code:

---

//#CLIENTSIDE

// Graal2002 NPC by Stefan Knorr

if (created) {

  // Initialize the attributes

  showcharacter;

  setcharprop #3,head0.png;

  setcharprop #C0,white;

  setcharprop #C1,white;

  setcharprop #C2,white;

  setcharprop #C3,white;

  setcharprop #C4,white;

  setcharprop #2,shield1.gif;

  shieldpower = 1;

  dir = 2;

}



if(playertouchsme) {



showani(201,x+4,y,6,"idle");

findimg(201).actor.colors[0] = "black";

}

The ani gets shown but the colours are the npc's. Any ideas?

Sorry, you also need findimg(index).playerlook = false;

Thanks. Works now :)

Best scripting style to do it would be like this:
