on-off defnpc for the ****s

[prozac424242]

Heres one for you newbie scripters who want to make
an npc that you can press D once for "on" mode, and fire again
to set in "off" mode.

IMPORTANT
close graal
Save as: graal/levels/npcs/defnpcOnOffWeapon.txt
then open graal and go to Predefined npcs.

Try putting for npc-action, shootarrow playerdir

NPC Code:

---

// NPC made by Prozac

//#COMMENTS Weapon with on and off mode

//#EDIT weapon_name item

//#EDIT to-get-this playertouchsme

//#EDIT npc-action 



if (created) 

{setimg bomb.png; show;}



//#CLIENTSIDE

if (to-get-this)

  {toweapons weapon_name; this.on=0;}



//on and off part when pressing D  

if (weaponfired && this.on==0)

  {this.on=1; sleep .2; timeout=.05;}

if (weaponfired && this.on==1)

  {this.on=0; sleep .2;}



if (timeout && this.on==1)

{

//put your npc actions here



npc-action



timeout=.05;

}

and its OK that this is on this forum becasue
the script provided there does not do anything practical
as it its .. its a form, a mold, for your imagination to pour into!
