Hello. Please, I need help here. This script works really good on GED, but not on exported version.
When the user press space key AND hero distance from the door is smaller than 60 pixels, so play a door sound. Simple! But I detected that the distance function is not working on the exported version. May anyone help me?

Key down > Space > Script Editor:

if (distance(x,y,door.x,door.y)<60) {
PlaySound2("data/door.wav", 0.233333, 1, 0.000000);
}

problem is that door.x gets the door with the 0 cloneindex so if you have multiple doors it wont work right. i think a better way is to have a collision event that checks if space is pressed.

Alternatively do a for loop that cycle through all the doors and then for each door check the distance

Hello, rykein. I don't need multiple doors. The problem is that the script is working good on GED, but not on the exported version. Anyway, thanks.

rykein was talking about a known problem in exported games. If you have multiple door actors and you are using door.x then it is possible that it will mess up in exported versions. Using door.x will get the x position of the lowest indexed door clone, which may change when you export the game. That is one of the only reasons why you would experience a difference between the ged and the exported version.

Oh, sorry. Now I understood.

Please, how can I put a For loop to check the door object and its clones? Thanks.

PlaySound2("data/door.wav", 0.233333, 1, 0.000000);
}

Hi. Please, I need help here. I put a For loop, but it only works with door.0
It is not working with, for example, door.1 =(

Key Down >> Space:

int i;
for(i=0;i<5;i=i+1){
if (distance(x,y,getclone("door.i")->x,getclone("door.i")->y)<60) {
PlaySound2("data/door.wav", 0.233333, 1, 0.000000);
}}

Firstly look up getclone2 in these forums and then add it to your global functions.

Then try the following code.

Code: Select all

Actor * ThisDoor;
int i;
for(i=0;i<5;i++)
{
  ThisDoor = getclone2(door,i);
  if (distance(x,y,ThisDoor->x,ThisDoor->y)<60)
  {
  PlaySound2("data/door.wav", 0.233333, 1, 0.000000);
  }
}


Not in the for statement I used i++. This is the same as i = i+1.

Hello, foleyjo. Thanks for the reply. I followed your instructions. I added the clone2 code to the global functions and updated my script.

But I got this error:
Error: Incompatible types: cannot convert from 'struct' to '* char'

at this line:
ThisDoor = getclone2(door,i);

You have to use "door", not door.

Thanks too much!
Now its woking perfectly! =))

Best.
