[DBGames]

i have an actor that needs to change transparency when
a.) my mouse is moving
or
b.) my mouse is still
how do i do it?

Create two variables, one for xmouse, and one for ymouse. Something like mousexp and mouseyp.
view -> Draw Actor -> Script Editor

Code: Select all

mousexp=xmouse;
mouseyp=ymouse;

Then if you want to know if the mouse is moving, use this.

Code: Select all

if(xmouse!=mousexp || ymouse!=mouseyp)
{
    // execute code
    // so if you want to change transparency, do it here (this would be a draw event then)
}

wouldn't it be easier to have the view's code just after the other code?
Unless view's draw actor is always executed last... which should be quite handy

Yeah, that was a possible problem, but it worked when tested, but I don't actually know if it is executed last. The reason I didn't want to put it at the end of the visibility code is so that multiple actors can have the event triggered.
