direction of a gani attribute?

DustyPorViva · #1 08-23-2009, 05:28 PM

Is there any way I can specify in which direction a gani attribute( player.attr[x] = "y.gani"; ) should be facing?

Since you attach a gani to an object, the direction will automatically be the same as the objects direction.

Nope. Hence why I'm asking

That's what I thought, but it defaults to down for some reason.

Hm, weird - would have assumed it would auto-adjust.

Hm. Try player.attr[x].dir? Just a rough guess though..

Well you can use player.x, player.y in the gani script, just use player.dir in it as well?

He never said he was using a script. I suppose he just got a gani with different stuff in the 4 directions each gani has by default.

Yup. I'm trying to use a gani for the horse separate from the player's gani.

Why not just use the already made ride ganis or use parameters?

different style horses perhaps?

Eh... if I could use them I would have. However, players and horses are a good example of gani's that just don't work how the sprites once did, hence what I'm doing it differently.

It doesn't matter, because even if I could specify a direction gani attributes always display over the player.
