particle effects...

[Nyght]

So i'm trying to get this working on delteria dev and i'm needing some help with this code.

Initially this code did exactly what I needed to, than everytime I modify it one way or another it ends up giving me a single image rather than the flame effect i'm shooting for.

NPC Code:

---

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onTimeout() 

{

 findImg(200).x = player.x;

 findImg(200).y = player.y;

 this.setTimer(0.05);

}

function onCreated() 

{

 findImg(200).x = player.x;

 findImg(200).y = player.y;

 this.setTimer(0.05);

 layer = 3;

 with (emitter) 

 {

  delaymin = 0.05;

  delaymax = 0.05;

  nrofparticles = 6;

  maxparticles = 260;



  with (particle)

  {

   angle = pi / 2;

   lifetime = 4;

   image = "light2s.png";

   red = 0.85;

   green = 0.09;

   blue = 0.03;

   alpha = 0.99;

   speed = 0.35;

  }



  addlocalmodifier("impulse", 0, 0, "angle", "add", -0.04, 0.04);

  addlocalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "x", "add", 0, 0.65);

  addlocalmodifier("range", 0.5, 4, "alpha", "replace", 0.99, 0);

  addlocalmodifier("range", 0.4, 4, "zoom", "replace", 0.6, 0);

  addlocalmodifier("range", 0.2, 4, "speed", "replace", 0.5, 4);

 }

}

Could be due to using "add" .. try this:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onTimeout() 

{

 findImg(200).x = player.x;

 findImg(200).y = player.y;

 this.setTimer(0.05);

}

function onCreated() 

{

 findImg(200).x = player.x;

 findImg(200).y = player.y;

 this.setTimer(0.05);

 layer = 3;

 with (emitter) 

 {

  delaymin = 0.05;

  delaymax = 0.05;

  nrofparticles = 6;

  maxparticles = 260;



  with (particle)

  {

   angle = pi / 2;

   lifetime = 4;

   image = "light2s.png";

   red = 0.85;

   green = 0.09;

   blue = 0.03;

   alpha = 0.99;

   speed = 0.35;

  }

  removeModifiers();
  removeParticles();

  addlocalmodifier("impulse", 0, 0, "angle", "add", -0.04, 0.04);

  addlocalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "x", "add", 0, 0.65);

  addlocalmodifier("range", 0.5, 4, "alpha", "replace", 0.99, 0);

  addlocalmodifier("range", 0.4, 4, "zoom", "replace", 0.6, 0);

  addlocalmodifier("range", 0.2, 4, "speed", "replace", 0.5, 4);

 }

}

Could be because you're editting the emitter object outside of the image object's scope.

As an edit to Tig's suggestion:

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE

function onTimeout() 

{

 findImg(200).x = player.x;

 findImg(200).y = player.y;

 this.setTimer(0.05);

}

function onCreated() 

{

 findImg(200).x = player.x;

 findImg(200).y = player.y;

 this.setTimer(0.05);

 layer = 3;
    
  with(findimg(200)) 
  {
     with (emitter) 

     {

      delaymin = 0.05;

      delaymax = 0.05;

      nrofparticles = 6;

      maxparticles = 260;



      with (particle)

      {

       angle = pi / 2;

       lifetime = 4;

       image = "light2s.png";

       red = 0.85;

       green = 0.09;

       blue = 0.03;

       alpha = 0.99;

       speed = 0.35;

      }

      removeModifiers();
      removeParticles();

      addlocalmodifier("impulse", 0, 0, "angle", "add", -0.04, 0.04);

      addlocalmodifier("once", 0, 0, "x", "add", 0, 0.65);

      addlocalmodifier("range", 0.5, 4, "alpha", "replace", 0.99, 0);

      addlocalmodifier("range", 0.4, 4, "zoom", "replace", 0.6, 0);

      addlocalmodifier("range", 0.2, 4, "speed", "replace", 0.5, 4);

     }
  }
}
