Grappling Hook

[Dnetick]

Okay, I am starting to get more into the Scripting part of Graal. But, anyway, I know 3/4s of the Commands but I just don't know how to use some of them. Anyway, I am gonna start working on a 2D type Grappling Hook like in Zelda: Link's Awaking DX. I am working on the add to inventory part which will only take me like 2 seconds. But, What this is mainly about is, I will most likely start posting updates on the script sorta. If I need help that is.

NPC Code:

---

// NPC made by Dnetick

///

if (playertouchsme){

set gotgrapplinghook;

toweapons Grappling Hook;

say 0;

}

---

That is what I have so far.

Also, I need to know the script for like making a player doing a Gani, but, since the Grappling Gani is going to make the player go left/right/up/down, I am wondering how I can make it to where if when the player is done moving to the right of the screen, while doing the gani, after it is done, the gani that is, he stays in that position.

Wow a grappling hook you say? And this has -only- been done.. oh lets see here.. 200 times before?

I myself have made one and therefore, everyone has.

Jadis:

And why not use flags? They're perfectly fine for getting the weapon to be part of a quest. You could set a string, but that'd really be pointless and less-efficient.

lol
hes only learning
thats how you learn
you see something you like
you make it YOURSELF

And I have no problem with that, but why post it here?

I have an idea for a grapple hook...just a crude one mind you. Oughta do it.

Jadis:

I need to stop posting so fast, but he is right about that; however, I see no other way to do something. hasweapon() could work, but oh well flags are fine for me.

[AlexH]

you have no problem with what

[Dnetick]

I will just start out easy I guess. I will start out small.

PHP Code:

if (playertouchsme) {toweapons Hook-Shot;
set client.gothookshot;
say2 
 You got the hookshot!;
} 


then when you do the if weaponfired

PHP Code:

if (weaponfired) {
if (client.gothookshot) {
action;
}
} 


this way you can avoid rcs giving themselves weapons and possible trainers etc

Thanks Merlin!

Hmmm... There were about 5 hookshots/grappling hooks made in Graal already. Why don't you try to find one of them, and study how it was made? Personally, I'd find XDaKreepX's, upon my memory, it would be fairly easy to follow.
