its too easy to dodge with my sprinting system…
could someone gimme a quick tut on how to make it move faster?

Beholder · July 13, 2009, 5:55pm

this.steplen = 1.5;
Modify that to have it move faster, however be warned. This uses a crude system so you will actually “jump over” obstacles and not hit people in between positions if you move too fast.
Also I noticed you credited yourself on the NPC that you didn’t make. O_o lol

Spooon · July 13, 2009, 6:34pm

It auto adds it in NPCs. He should have removed it though.

Kendiggity · July 13, 2009, 7:27pm

yeah i removed that didnt even realize it was there. Lmfao

Kendiggity · July 13, 2009, 7:39pm

any ideas here?

RAWR!!!
Two things to do before/in your posts

format your code using the style button in the editor
use the [code] tags for code

Downsider · July 13, 2009, 7:42pm

triggeraction [b]i[/b] this.flyx+0.5,this.flyy+0.5,shurikenhurt,;

Get rid of the i

Also, if there are no players in the room besides you, it won’t work because of where you nested it.

Move it up below:

this.flyx += this.mx*this.steplen;
this.flyy += this.my*this.steplen;

Kendiggity · July 13, 2009, 7:46pm

thats didn’t work, it has a system that tells u where its supposed to hit the player…
hence the [CODE]this.testhurt = 1;
}
}
if (playerenters) {
hideimg 1;
this.step = 0;
timeout = 0;
show;
}
if (this.testhurt == 1) {
for (i=0; i<compuscount; i++) {
if (abs(this.flyx-compus[i].x)<=1 &&
abs(this.flyy-(compus[i].y-0.5))<=1.5 &&
compus[i].mode!=3)
hitcompu i,2,this.flyx+0.5,this.flyy+0.5;
}

for (i=1; i<playerscount; i++) {
if (abs((this.flyx+0.7)-(players[i].x+1.5))<=1 &&
abs((this.flyy+0.5)-(players[i].y+1.5))<=1.5)
triggeraction i this.flyx+0.5,this.flyy+0.5,shurikenhurt,;
}
this.testhurt = 0;
}[/CODE]

Downsider · July 13, 2009, 8:15pm

Worked fine for me, so go learn how to follow directions, and how to script while you’re at it.

Also

I lol’d.

Spooon · July 13, 2009, 8:29pm

Why did you make a new thread?

Downsider · July 13, 2009, 8:34pm

He’s obviously rather uneducated… Not his fault, though.

Spooon · July 13, 2009, 8:37pm

Heh, I suppose not.

Kendiggity · July 13, 2009, 8:43pm

i made a new thread cause this has nothing to do with how fast it flys…

Downsider · July 13, 2009, 8:52pm

Well here’s a rule of thumb for you:

Always go against your judgement.

Spooon · July 13, 2009, 9:40pm

How is it not related? They are the same scripts?

Downsider · July 13, 2009, 9:45pm

lol I love how we’re all such dickheads.

Kendiggity · July 13, 2009, 10:15pm

ive run into another slight problem with the npc
if i hit him and it should have killed him his hearts just display 0 and he still attacks and walks can anyone help me with that?

Cadavre · July 13, 2009, 10:17pm

A part of problem solving is trying to find the issue yourself. Most stuff is actually readable as long you use the commands.rtf as a guide.

Kendiggity · July 13, 2009, 10:18pm

i only post stuff if 1. i have no idea what it is
2. ive already tried and just cant quite seem to figure it out.

Cadavre · July 13, 2009, 10:28pm

The problem is that you don’t make the scripts from scratch. If you would’ve made every script yourself you would have an idea of what everything do.

I suggest you start from the beginning with simple stuff and learn a little at the time.
