Re: Vortex
 

Also know as "Please post your vortex scripts so I can steal them because I am too lazy and/or stupid to make one of my own"

Pachuka's is the original.. Wait nevermind, someone made that for him. ok uh whoever made that's vortex is fine for me thanks.

No, I dont steal scripts, If someone else makes them, I ask permission, and if I can, I put it where I want it.

-Rebel95

well thats ease t script!

Nobody has the courage to post a script...hey Kai, help us out, get this thing started......

I'd be able to make one...but only if I know how it works :)Could someone explain what its use is and what it does?

Ok i'd post my script if you told us what the hell the 'vortex' is and is supposed to do...sheesh, and you wonder why no one is giving you scripts for this.

what is a vortex script? :confused:

Obtain an old levelpack, you'd find them in the Gravity Temple or in Sardon's.

cant you just tell me what it is
i really cant be bothered hunting for an old lvls pack

Basically, a vortex script inside an NPC would make the player be pulled towards the NPC.

o that
thats pretty easy

Oh, yes...Now I remember. That level really pissed me off because it always kept resetting when I had to go back through the levels.
It's one of the simplest things anyone could posibly script apart from:
if (playertouchsme) {
hide;
}

Ok this is an old ass one I made.

//Code copyrighted by Josey Hunt and may not be used without his express written permission
// NPC made by The Josey Hunt
if (playerenters) {
x=x +.5;
timereverywhere;
set spar;
timeout=0.05;
}
if (timeout&&playerx<=x&&playery<=y&&spar) {
playerx=playerx +.08;
playery=playery +.08;
timeout=0.05;
}
if (timeout&&playerx>=x&&playery>=y&&spar) {
playerx=playerx -.08;
playery=playery -.08;
timeout=0.05;
}

if (timeout&&playerx<=x&&playery>=y&&spar) {
playerx=playerx +.08;
playery=playery -.08;
timeout=0.05;
}
if (timeout&&playerx>=x&&playery<=y&&spar) {
playerx=playerx -.08;
playery=playery +.08;
timeout=0.05;
}

Dont worry about the copyright up there, use it, who cares =D This can be easily edited for other things ;)

P.S.
My new tat owns jo0! =D didnt show up in the pic very good though -curses lighting at raves. v.v

Speak it Kaimetsu! ;) That script is pretty simple, hell I wrote that one a looong time ago (about 2 months since ive only been scripting in Graal for about 4 months) so it seems like a long time for me. ;)

said it was old =P
if i was to redo it, itd probobally be 10 times shorter and use only about 10 - 8 lines of code =P

I could script it, I just ain't got he time, Thank you for those who have posted, once someone tells me something as short as, posibly 7 lines, I will close this thread.

-Rebel95

any who ever said the scripts in quests on classic isnt like the vortex npc that one dosent with with other npc's in the room and alot of the vortex;s people make dont work because it warps them to a npc because they mess up. I dont think vortex shoul pull it should just warp. Working with the vortex weapon as staff it just causes more problems trapping people and they like it. they try to get on houses and such and then you cant help the one person but it is the weapon used the most and the most helpful.

I can delete Them Faster Than You could sand-blast a stainless steel soup cracker.

-Rebel95

alls you would have to add would be an on wall thing. just put inside one of the code, !onwall. then make one if the player is onwall itd just make the timeout 0. :D

I Can Capitalize Like You :D

a question for rebel:
why do you need a shorter code as long as it all does the same?

hmm well i tried maybe you could fix this code up

// NPC made by Merlin
if (playerenters || created) {
x = 30;
y = 30;
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
timeout = .5;
}
if (timeout) {
if (this.x==playerx) {
if (this.y==playery) {
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
}
elseif (!this.x==playerx) {
if (!this.y==playery) {
if (playery > 30) {
playery--;
timeout = .2;
}
elseif (playery < 30) {
playery++;
timeout = .2;
}
if (playerx < 30) {
playerx++;
timeout = .2;
}
elseif (playerx > 30) {
playerx--;
timeout = .2;
}
}
}
}
}

ok this is not mines so dont ask!

NPC Code:

---

// NPC made by Antago God of Gravity

if (playerenters) {

timeout=.1;

}

if (created) {

timeout=.1;

}

if(timeout){

if(playery>=19 && playery <=38){

if(playerx>=41 && playerx <=44){

playery -=.7;

}

}

if(playery>=33.5 && playery <=36.5){

if(playerx>=20 && playerx <=44){

playerx +=.7;

}

}

if(playery>=18 && playery <=20){

if(playerx>=21 && playerx <=44){

playerx -=.7;

}

}

if(playery>=17 && playery <=34){

if(playerx>=20 && playerx <=22){

playery +=.7;

}

}

timeout=.05;

}

and Antago, pleez dont ban me pleez? k.
and staff, dont ban me pleez. thx ppl!

jadis:

of course that script was written in 1.1 so it is insanely complicated. and I don't mean this one down here, I mean the one that was made by Bruges.

NPC Code:

---

if (playerenters||timeout) {

  this.speed = .2;

  timeout = .05;

 if (playerdir<3) playerdir++;

 else playerdir = 0;

 if (abs(playerx-x)<=this.speed&&abs(playery-y)<=this.speed) {

   playerx = x;

   playery = y;

 }

 if (playery>y&&!onwall(playerx+.5,playery+1)&&!onwall  (playerx+1,playery+1)&&!onwall(playerx+1.5,playery  +1)) playery-=this.speed;

 if (playery<y&&!onwall(playerx+.5,playery+3)&&!onwall  (playerx+1,playery+3)&&!onwall(playerx+1.5,playery  +3)) playery+=this.speed;

 if (playerx<x&&!onwall(playerx+2.5,playery+1)&&!onwal  l(playerx+2.5,playery+2)) playerx+=this.speed;

 if (playerx>x&&!onwall(playerx-.5,playery+1)&&!onwall(playerx-.5,playery+2)) playerx-=this.speed;

}

hey kaimetsu why do you have to be such a <censored>. in every question people have you have some dumb thing to say about it.if the people dont know what there doing tell them how.

lol

~AlphaFlame~

You mean something like this?

if (playerenters) {
timeout=.05;
}
if (timeout) {
playerdir=playerdir+1%3;
this.ag = arctan((playery-y)/(playerx-x));
this.x = playerx-cos(this.ag)*.15*(x>playerx? -1 : 1);
this.y = playery-sin(this.ag)*.15*(x>playerx? -1 : 1);
playerx=this.x;
playery=this.y;
timeout=.05;
}

P.S - Yes, the trig was lifted from Kyle's FollowPlayer script... Don't kill me x.x

~AlphaFlame~

Notice the PS Kai... tell Kyle that :p

Jadis:

Kaimetsu always makes me feel inferior.

~AlphaFlame~

It's fairly recent. Search for the post "How dare you ask me to follow a player!" I believe.

:-D
