Is it possible to set the x and y possitions in each frame of an animation with seperate .png images

eg)

Code: Select all

image001.x = 0
image001.y = 1
image002.x = 2
image002.y = -1
image003.x = -2
image003.y = 5
...
etc

For different frames in one animation:

Code: Select all

if(animpos = 0)//first frame
{
    x = 1;
    y = 1;
}
if(animpos = 1)//second frame
{
    x = 2;
    y = 2;
}

for different animations:

Code: Select all

if(animindex = 0)//first image
{
    x = 1;
    y = 1;
}
if(animindex = 1)//second image
{
    x = 2;
    y = 2;
}

It doesnt work, I am using this code:

Code: Select all

if(charanim == 0) // alert
{
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "alert.body1", NO_CHANGE);
    if(animpos == 0)
    {
        x = -3;
        y = -18;
    }
    if(animpos == 1)
    {
        x = -3;
        y = -19;
    }
    if(animpos == 2)
    {
        x = -3;
        y = -20;
    }
    if(animpos == 3)
    {
        x = -3;
        y = -19;
    }
}



it still shows the actor in random places.

where did you put that code?
(draw actor, collision, etc.)

in draw actor

ChangeAnimation should not go in draw actor

P.S.
click the Chat button at the top of the page.

right ... but it still doesnt work, it's in draw actor and now this is my code

Code: Select all

if(charanim == 0) // alert
{
    if(animpos == 0)
    {
        x = -3;
        y = -18;
    }
    if(animpos == 1)
    {
        x = -3;
        y = -19;
    }
    if(animpos == 2)
    {
        x = -3;
        y = -20;
    }
    if(animpos == 3)
    {
        x = -3;
        y = -19;
    }
}



I dont know how to fix this .. o.O

define what it does.

If you have a lot of ifs like that where only one should happen, use else ifs. I=Also, in that case, all are checking the same value, and they're all == comparisons, so you can use a switch instead.

Ok, I forgot how to do switches ...

Code: Select all

if(playeranim == 0) // stand
{
    switch(animpos)
    {
        case 0:
            x = 16;
            y = 31;
        case 1:
            x = 17;
            y = 31;
        case 2:
            x = 18;
            y = 31;
        case 3:
            x = 17;
            y = 31;
    }
}


but isn't that right?

For this situation, you need to use a break after each case:

Code: Select all

...
switch(animpos)
{
    case 0:
    x = 16;
    y = 31;
    break;

    case 1:
    x = 17;
    y = 31;
    break;
etc...

now I get "switch expression is not intergal" ... also with using if and else if it goes to the frame then waits for half a second then it goes to the proper x and y.

Oh, yeah. I think animpos is actually a real number. Make sure to use (int)animpos in the switch statement.
