Bombs on Gmap
 

How do I get bombs to show up on the gmap? For some reason my bombs aren't showing up on the gmap!:(

post your script. the fix is often putbomb(1, x % 64, y % 64).

I think the behaviors are different on v5 and v6, where one is expecting GMAP x/y and the other expects level x/y

This is what I have, I just implemented what you gave me:

NPC Code:

---

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onWeaponFired()

{

  if (player.dir=0){ putbomb(1, x+0.5 % 64, y-1 % 64); }

  if (player.dir=1){ putbomb(1, x-1.5 % 64, y+1 % 64); }

  if (player.dir=2){ putbomb(1, x+0.5 % 64, y+2.5 % 64); }

  if (player.dir=3){ putbomb(1, x+2.5 % 64, y+1 % 64); }

  player.bombs - 1;

}

you should

A.) check the player has enough bombs before placing it
B.) reference the object to whose x/y you're referring (player.x, player.y);
C.) add else statements between each if so 4 evals aren't made every time.

D.) player.bombs -= 1;

I´d do it like this (also what Mark explained)
but instead of having the check of every single direction of the player, I´d suggest you to get familiar with vecx() and vecy(). Here is a great explanation made by Tigairius

yeah i fogot to add player. but I added that right after, and it works good. thank you guys.

I also added the bomb check to make sure player has bombs.

And I still can't understand the vecx and vecy for some reason x.x

So now I have this and it still doesn't place the bomb on the gmap:

idk what version of Graal you're using but like I said there was a weird behavior between v5 and v6 where one expects a level x y, and the other expects a gmap x y

This works for me on GMAPs and normal levels. The triggeraction doesn't place the bomb perfectly, but I'm sure you can tweak about with it. I'm sure you can add bomb checks and such in by yourself too.

vecx(player.dir),vecy(player.dir) will basically mimc the direction in which your player is standing. Of course it's much more useful then that.

thing of the results from vecx and vecy as points on a cartesian graph


value| vecx | vecy | corresponding direction
0 | 0 | -1 | up
1 | -1 | 0 | left
2 | 0 | 1 | down
3 | 1 | 0 | right

soz I had neat columns and the forums took them away :(

Just for you trix
