The script event is a great way to customize your game

[Fuzzy]

So i am curious, how much do you use it?

[supa-tails]

I use the ones I KNOW how to use, otherwise, I'm cluless!

I actually prefer to use the scripting. The quick ways are nice, but when it comes to debugging it, it is much easier to find the problem if all is done in scripting.

the script is better,but why is there not a keydown function?

it is possible doing a keydown function in the script!
Repeat action:

Code: Select all

char*key=GetKeyState();
if(key[KEY_LEFT]==1)
{
    //action to be repeated every frame
}

and for not repeat usage

Code: Select all

char*key=GetKeyState();
int No_Repeat;
if(key[KEY_LEFT]==1 && No_Repeat==0)
{
    //action not to be repeated
    No_Repeat=1;
}
else
{
    No_Repeat=0;
}

That should do it

remeber you can change the KEY_LEFT to another key, look in the script reference offered whit GE

It will check if a certain key is pressed hwit the if statement since key contains all array of keys, and have a value of 0 and 1, 1 being pressed.

automail10, do you mean the Moveto event? be aware that there is moveto and MoveTo as well. one is for pixel drawing, and the other is to move actors.
