this works fine...

COLLISION ANY SIDE OF ANY ACTOR
///WIZARD HAT PICK UP
{collide.itemtype = strcmp(collide.name, wizhat.name);

if(collide.itemtype==0)
ChangeParent("Collide Actor", "menu"),
collide.x=-30+(menuquan*2),
collide.y=-48,
menuquan=menuquan+10, wizhat.itemown=1;}

but this doesn't

MOUSE BUTTON DOWN (LEFT)
if(hatequip==1)
ChangeParent("Event Actor", "(none)"),
x=999999999,
itemown=0, hatequip=0,
y=Man.y,wizhat.x=Man.x;

if(hatequip==0)
if(itemown==1)
ChangeParent("wizhat", "Man"),
wizhat.x=0,
wizhat.y=-11,
menuquan=menuquan-10,hatequip=1;

the second script is supossed to move the hat from your inventory (menu) to your head (Man).
Can you tell me y it doesn't work and how to fix it?

you have to put a "{" after using an if statement.
the code should look like this

Code: Select all: MOUSE BUTTON DOWN (LEFT) if(hatequip==1) { ChangeParent("Event Actor", "(none)"), x=999999999, itemown=0, hatequip=0, y=Man.y,wizhat.x=Man.x; } if(hatequip==0) { if(itemown==1) { ChangeParent("wizhat", "Man"), wizhat.x=0, wizhat.y=-11, menuquan=menuquan-10,hatequip=1; } }

for the second peice of code you have to if options so you have to end with 2 "}"s

EDIT: Nvmd I just realized what you were saying. Im not sure how to fix your problem

Are ending your instructions with (,) or (;) ?? A command must always be followed by a semicolon and not a comma. I'm noticing the way you wrote your lines in your text were ended in commas so I just want to make sure.

thats not it, when u try to wear the hat by clicking on it, it goes back to the menu and then disapears!

Code: Select all: MOUSE BUTTON DOWN (LEFT) if(hatequip) { ChangeParent("Event Actor", "(none)"); hatequip=0; y=Man.y; x=Man.x; } else { if(itemown) { x=Man.x; y=Man.y-11; ChangeParent("wizhat", "Man"); menuquan=menuquan-10; hatequip=1; } }

didn't work.

Sorry, then I don't know the reason for your problem...

I think if this doesn't work, then the problem will not be in this part of the code.

Code: Select all: if(hatequip==1) { ChangeParent("Event Actor", "(none)"), x=999999999; itemown=0; hatequip=0; y=Man.y; wizhat.x=Man.x; } if(hatequip==0) { if(itemown==1) { ChangeParent("wizhat", "Man"), wizhat.x=0; wizhat.y=-11; menuquan=menuquan-10; hatequip=1; } }

I had if statement problems lately, and if that doesn't work, then let me give you a hint: You might have statements put in the wrong if statements, so they're done the wrong time, if at all, or you might have an if statement you don't need at all.
