Black areas with custom movement

[Twinny]

Part of my custom movement system involves moving around without using keys. When doing this though, i often reach black areas of the map. For example, the leaping part uses

PHP Code:

player.x -= cos(ang)*1.6;
player.y += sin(ang)*1.6; 


If a player just leaps using mouse without touching the keyboard, the tiles eventually go black but you can still see NPCs. The movement is done clientside but so are most movement systems. How can I fix this?

try a sleep() before altering the x and y (0.05 for example)

I've seen this problem in an other thread, let me see if I find it..

Made it choppy but i still see black

It doesn't go black if you are holding down a movement key but since it itself can be custom scripted, do you just need to have one of the 4 directional keys down for it to load the map?

I found the thread, but that was for a draisine tho..

but try put freezeplayer(0.1); before altering the x and y

freezeplayer() didn't work. I tried the disabledefmovement and it worked for a bit then the map updates when you enter new map area and it buggers up again. I tried doing playerenters() tests and such with no luck.

I've only seen this happen on GMaps. I don't know how to fix it but it happens when you move between levels without triggering the level link.

edit: At a guess i'd say that calling setlevel2(player.level,player.x,player.y) after the move would fix it.

That's serverside :[

Not only is it serverside, but it's setlevel2(levelname, x, y);.

Any suggestions, Master Skyld?

Run to store and buy a copy of Windows Accelerat0r and run back to your computer, then jump up and down for a while then install the software. Now run your script! Everythings fixed! No more script! Graal won't start anymore! Problem solved!

I guess Zone is also using an own movement system, so they would also have to use disabledefmovement. But its also happening there ;o

Classic doesnt have this problem and we also use disabledefmovement at all times so this might do it...

This is true

disabledefmovement(); is what Niromia had to use. We have to keep it in a timeout oddly enough or else the disabledef doesnt work for long. :/
