[Sgt. Sparky]

[UltimatHedgehog]

follow me, set me free, trust me and we will escape from the city

thats a sonic song um....good job could you say what part of the script makes him follow

[Hblade]

Yeah, it's from a game called sonic for the gamecube.

[Hblade]

Here's the code

Code: Select all

char *key=GetKeyState();

if (key[KEY_UP] == 1 && key[KEY_DOWN] == 0)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "U............", FORWARD);
}
if (key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1 && key[KEY_LEFT] == 0)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "Wingingiliki", FORWARD);
}
if (key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1 && key[KEY_LEFT] == 0 && key[KEY_UP] == 1)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "U............", FORWARD);
}
if (key[KEY_DOWN] == 1 && key[KEY_UP] == 0)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "WINGIHIIIIIIII.", FORWARD);
}
if (key[KEY_DOWN] == 1 && key[KEY_UP] == 0 &&  key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "Wingingiliki", FORWARD);
}
if (key[KEY_LEFT] == 1 && key[KEY_RIGHT] == 0)
{
    ChangeAnimation("WNRIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHI", "RINGIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHI.", FORWARD);
}
if (key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1 && key[KEY_LEFT] == 0 && key[KEY_UP] == 1)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "U............", FORWARD);
}
if (key[KEY_LEFT] == 1 && key[KEY_RIGHT] == 0 && key[KEY_UP] == 1)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "U............", FORWARD);
}
if (key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1 && key[KEY_LEFT] == 1)
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "RINGIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHI.", FORWARD);
}

Then when the actor following you collides with a side of the player just have it change his animation

Thats a biiiig code!!!

[UltimatHedgehog]

can you replace the weird names with up down right and left walk so i know what to put

[Sgt. Sparky]

I got a bigger

Code: Select all

char*key=GetKeyState();

XD that is only the half that is in use in my SamuraiDude game
the other half will be added with a character change,
will be added maybe today or tomarrow!
(look at the post for more info in game development under: SamuraiDude[testers])

[Sgt. Sparky]

oh, most of the code is ineffective without the many other coded actors

[Hblade]

Woah. Dude, whats awesome. That is alot of code.

[Sgt. Sparky]

yeah, but its not about how much cod you use, its about how well it functions.
sometimes to make a perfectly functional code it takes alot of code.
if you look through my code how the keys interact it allows you to do a special attack in the currently out version.
all you do is press the left arrow then the right arrow then the up arrow really fast
it makes him slash both ways with a slight circle of his tail around him
(he also gets blury)
EDIT: tail is with the second character, for the other one its a sword
