Dance Script

[Onyx_Brasil]

i have a dance script, i want to do this:
when player enter in the level, only A button will appear
and when u press A u start to dance and when u stop pressing, u stop,,, how can i do it?

[LiquidIce00]

just use disableweapons;
then just do a keydown for the A button

yah and for the dance script you would do a timeout with random sprites going on right? and random positions? i am just wondering

[Faheria_GP2]

sigh, i have given up hope of forcing the population to learn to do it themselves, here you go:

if (playerenters) {
timeout=.05;
disableweapons;
}
if (timeout) {
if (keydown(6)) playersprite=int(random(0,40));
timeout=.05;
}

Um, if I were you, I'd change the (0,40) to (0,39) because no one wants to see thierself dead every .1 seconds.

[T3CK]

Oh, yes, and try putting that in a for loop to make it where when the player is in a certain area he will dance. just using a button isn't..natural. for(playerx<15;playery>10;playerx>10&&playery<5){ code here;}

[Faheria_GP2]

not a very bright one are you?

with random(0,40) the highest possible number is

39.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999

which int() will cut off to 39, so technically, you would only see sprites 0-39.

[royce]

then you would be swimming too and that is the ****ed thing...

... set an array of the sprites you do want, then do a random for the arrayed sprite to show...

this.sprites={1,2,3,4,5,9,14,20};
this.show=int(random(0,arraylen(this.sprites)));
playersprite=this.sprites[this.show];

*passes out the dunce caps*

[Falcor]

even simpler

NPC Code:

---

this.sprites={1,2,3,4,5,9,14,20}; 

playersprite=this.sprites[intrandom(0,arraylen(this.sprites)+.4))]; 

---

*hands ~Alpha Flame~ a dunce team baseball cap.*

setani dance,;

(for the slow ones, that means make a gani and forget about the sprites, THEY ARE OBSOLETE)

um... is it natural to dance if u walk over a special area? I do not have to dance if I walk over a dancefloor only if I want to... so it's more natural to dance if u press the a-key...
