How do i do warping scripts?

[Omini]

An easier method for the setshape bit would be

NPC Code:

---

setshape 1,16*x,16*y;

---

Replace the x with the amount of Graal tiles horizontal and the y with the amount of Graal tiles vertical, this stops you having to calculate the amount of pixels since each Graal tile is 16x16 pixels.

Hadnt really thought of doing that for some reason. Sounds like that could be a good plan but make sure that the x or y is greater then one tile otherwise you might have trouble grabbing the npc in the level editor again :P

Kind of. but you can't fight befor you say start and it doesn't add to your deaths.

all you put in an npc to make it a "sparringzone" is just that

NPC Code:

---

sparringzone

---

It appears its still picky in editor what you have there, and Ive always done it that way online also.

And you want it not to start before you say fight? Now you are getting into bigger scripts, you wanna check where the players are at, and have their weapons disabled first!

NPC Code:

---

if (playerenters) {

 disableweapons;

}

---

Next we need to expand the playerchats block to make sure only people inside the spar zone can say "start" and then anyone in the block, enable their weapons.

NPC Code:

---

if (playerx in |21,42| && playery in |25,40|) {

...

}

---

NPC Code:

---

for (i=0;i<playerscount;i++) {

 if (playerx in |21,42| && playery in |25,40|) {

  enableweapons;

 }

}

---

All its doing is checking the |start,end| and seeing if your x and y are in those numbers, if you are in the sparring zone, you should be in them. Otherwise you cant start the spar, or get your weapons enabled.

Of course youll need to combine this with everything else, to make a complete script, go ahead and check the level. The healer is in there too.

Hope you are learning something

i just have to say how wonderful it is to see people actually helping new players learn things. Has Lance been removed as a moderator? Or have the scripting forums rules changed? Keep up the good work, its great to see the open sharing of basic code principles come back to this part of the forums again.
