barrier

[ESL]

I get the idea that you can use a wire frame actor to create a barrier. Are there any more specific examples?

I want to make a wall that blocks the actor from passing until an action occurs that destroys the wall.

Why don't you just make the player collide with the wall itself?
If the wall and the background are the same actor, you can use this code :

Wall -> CreateActor

Code: Select all

if(animindex==getAnimindex("Wall"))barrier=1;

Player -> Collision -> Wall

Code: Select all

if(collide.barrier==1)PhysicalResponse();

I tried it but there were too many code errors.

I made"wall" the actor>collision with man> script editor> added your scripts

Did you just copy-paste it?
In that case, you have to make "barrier" variable first (actor variable).

I want to have the wall as a separate character. How do I create a barrier variable?

Thanks!

Go to any Script Editor and do this :

Thanks so much. Now the problem is that the focus goes back to it's original position so that the letters overlap each other.
