Actor help

[DilloDude]

What I would do is this: create a variable to represent your life stat: big, little, or dead. For example, call it lifestate. On your create actor, set lifestate to 1, or find out stats from the previous level so its 2. Now have you player actor, and add all animations. On events such as keydown, where you want to change the animation, instead of

Code: Select all

ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "WalkRight", FORWARD);

or just a change animation event, put script editor with

Code: Select all

switch (lifestate)
{
    case 1:
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "WalkLeftSmall", FORWARD);
    break;
   
    case 2:
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", WalkLeftBig", FORWARD);
    break;
...
}

You can add other stuff for other bonuses you can get, such as fireball.
On your collision with mushroom, set lifestate to 2 and change the animation to the animation required. (you might want to test any variables you are using for movement to change to the right animation). On a collision with an enemy (or anything that hurts)

Code: Select all

if (lifestate == 1)
{
    //the script you want when you die
}
else
{   
    //the script for changing animation to small
    lifestate = 1;
}

If you have any questions or problems, just ask.
