move() blockcheck?

What exactly is this parameter and how is it used?

This is something from a project Dusty made once.

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() {
  showcharacter();
  this.dir = (int(random(0,2))*2)+1;
  this.attr[1] = "ce_chicken-white.png";
  setCharani("ce_chicken_idle",null);
  setTimer(random(.25,2));
}

function onTimeout() {
  temp.dx = random(-3,3);
  temp.dy = random(-3,3);
  temp.dist = (dx^2+dy^2)^.5;
  temp.checkwall = 0;
  for (temp.i=0;i<dist;i+=.5) {
    //if (onwall2(this.x+.5+((dx/dist)*.5)+(dx*i),this.y+1+((dy/dist)*.5)+(dy*i),2,2)) {
    if (onwall2(this.x+1+(dx/dist)+(dx*i),this.y+1+(dy/dist)+(dy*i),1,1) || onwater(this.x+1.5+(dx/dist)+(dx*i),this.y+1.5+(dy/dist)+(dy*i))) {
      checkwall = 1;
      break;
    }
  }
  if (checkwall == 1) {
    setTimer(.1);
    return;
  }

  setCharani("ce_chicken_walk",null);
  if (dx > 0) this.dir = 3;
  else this.dir = 1;
  move(dx,dy,dist/3,8);
}


function onMovementfinished() {
  setCharani("ce_chicken_idle",null);
  setTimer(random(.1,2));
}

Semms like there is no parameter for that. Just using onwall2().

It's built-in wall checking for an object when move is called.

You use it like this:

move(dx, dy, time, 4);

If you want blockcheck and eventwhendone (onMovementFinished) you do:

move(dx, dy, time, 4 + 8);

Personally I have had no pleasant experiences with it at least on the serverside and can't really recommend it then again I haven't used it in ages.

I believe that once it hits a wall, it will set the NPC back to the position it had before the move() call; so it's quite useless.

There is a parameter for it, but it's not very reliable.

My method simply scans for the nearest wall, and makes sure the move() does not exceed that space.
