Hello, I have a problem with this script.
Life= textNumber that floats on top of the player that represents his life. (I'm gonna use actor vars but I'm still a beginner)

Code: Select all

if(Life.textNumber>=90)//When life is 90 or more,the colour turns cyan/bright blue
{
    r=0;
}

if(Life.textNumber>=50)//When life is 50 or more,the colour turns Green
{
    r=0;
    b=0;
}

if(Life.textNumber>=25)//When life is 25 or more,the colour turns Yellow
{
    b=0;
}

if(Life.textNumber>=10)//When life is 10 or more,the colour turns Orange
{
    g=75;
    b=0;
}

if(Life.textNumber>=1)//When life is 1 or more,the colour turns Red
{
    g=0;
    b=0;
}

if(Life.textNumber==0)//When life is 0 ,the colour turns dark red.
{
 
    g=0;
    b=0;
    r=50;
}

When I go to game mode,the life numbers disappear for some reason.
Any suggestions?

The problem is you are setting rgb equal to 0. When you have code that isn't doing what you want, you should step through it. Assuming life starts at 100.

Code: Select all

if(Life.textNumber>=90)//When life is 90 or more,the colour turns cyan/bright blue
{
    r=0;
}

if(Life.textNumber>=50)//When life is 50 or more,the colour turns Green
{
    r=0;
    b=0;
}
// by this point rgb is already set to 0 if life is 100

if(Life.textNumber>=25)//When life is 25 or more,the colour turns Yellow
{
    b=0;
}

if(Life.textNumber>=10)//When life is 10 or more,the colour turns Orange
{
    g=75;
    b=0;
}

//at this point g is set to 75

if(Life.textNumber>=1)//When life is 1 or more,the colour turns Red
{
    g=0;
    b=0;
}
// but this sets it back to 0

if(Life.textNumber==0)//When life is 0 ,the colour turns dark red.
{

    g=0;
    b=0;
    r=50;
}

What you want to do is specify else if. Otherwise all of those if statements can be true at the same time. So, turn all if statements after the first one to else if. Also, as I've told you before, don't use textNumber like that.

It works!!!! You're awesome skydereign! Thanks
EDIT:Theres something wrong with the colours.When my life goes below 50 it stays green! And when it goes below 10,it becomes dark green!
EDIT2:Ah fixed xD. My colour commands were wrong! xD
EDIT3:How to make actors shoot in random directions if the projectile is called "Laser" for example?

something like this?

I see the script now! Thanks Schnell! xD

I have another question,how to remove decimals in numbers?

depends on what you want:
1.
3.3 becomes 3
3.7 becomes 4
2.
3.3 becomes 3
3.7 becomes 3

what do you want?

If you always want to round down (just remove the floating point) you can either cast it to an int, or use floor. If you want it to always round up, you have to use ceil. But if you want to use normal rounding (.5 and up round up, anything lower round down) you have to use round.

Code: Select all

double d_var = 4.7;
d_var = (int)d_var; // this casts d_var as an int (always rounds down)
// d_var now equals 4.0

d_var = 4.7;
d_var = floor(d_var); // always rounds down
// d_var now equals 4.0

d_var = 4.7;
d_var = ceil(d_var); // always rounds up
// d_var now equals 5.0

d_var = 4.2;
d_var = round(d_var); // rounds down or up
// d_var now equals 4.0

d_var=4.7;
d_var = round(d_var); // rounds up in this case
// d_var now equals 5.0

Thanks to everyone's support,here it is,my very first test game. Remember,this is just practice xD

Bugs.. errr, mistakes found

1. Pressing "m" didn't stop the music.
Suggested solution:
- Make a global "Real" variable called "MUSICVOL"
- view -> DrawActor -> Script Editor:

Code: Select all

musicvol=MUSICVOL;

- YourMusicControllerActor -> KeyDown -> m -> ScriptEditor:

Code: Select all

int tmp;
tmp=abs(MUSICVOL-1);
MUSICVOL=tmp;

2. The snake is somehow flying

Suggested solution:
- Snake -> DrawActor -> ScriptEditor:

Code: Select all

yvelocity++;

- Snake -> Collision -> Any side of Platform -> PhysicalResponse: 1 1 0 0
*you should know this

3. The pink bullet is somehow created on startup.
Suggested solution:


4. Even though the player is facing left, the created bullet is shot to the right


Those are what I found so far.
And here let me help you fix the current mistakes...

I need help! I'm making a new level for the game and there will be a moving cloud which moves according to a path,but I want to make the cloud move when the player steps on it. How to do that?

jonathang wrote:I need help! I'm making a new level for the game and there will be a moving cloud which moves according to a path,but I want to make the cloud move when the player steps on it. How to do that?

Hmm... Player - Collision (Cloud) - Script:

Code: Select all

cloud.x+=[number]; //If move right

Code: Select all

cloud.x-=[number]; //If move left

Code: Select all

cloud.y+=[number]; //If move down

Code: Select all

cloud.y-=[number]; //If move up

If you want the cloud move even the player finish collision, change x or y to xvelocity or yvelocity (but turn off the REPEAT)

EDIT: A path.... hmm
Cloud - Collision (player) - Change Path

Thanks werty! It worked

Now I have a problem with the rand(); command.
I want to make the damage decimals but the life stays rounded off like Skyde's instructions above about floor/ceil/round.
So I made an actor which collides to the player and reduces its life by using this command: Player.LifeVar-=rand(0.75);
Somehow,it keeps reducing LifeVar by 1 all the time instead of 0 25% of the time. (Like i used Ceil instead of round). Any fixes?

The problem is you are now using actual variables. Because of this you probably are using an int for your lives variable. ints do not preserve the floating point value. To fix this just edit the lives variable and change it to type real.

Thanks Skyde! It worked,sorry for not being on lately.... Things have been rough lately..

EDIT: How to make enemies come to the player and have gravity at the same time? (Like the enemy can "see" the player and have gravity)
I tried Draw Actor=>Script editor=>

Code: Select all

yvelocity++;
MoveTo("Event Actor", 0.000000, 0.000000, 4.000000, "Player", "");


But it only executes the bottom line. What do I have to do to make them both execute?
P.S. I won't be online much due to internet problems.
