Moving Light effects.

[Torankusu]

Could somebody post a sample script?

I need to know the script for it to move is, and it somewhat explained. (What moves it, the directions, the speed, whatever.)
Thanks.

well move is just
move x,y,speed,options
you know x and y (hopefully) ,and speed is the ammount of seconds to do it in, and there are a ton of options so for now just use this.
to get it to loop do this for example

you start out with this:

if (created) {
setimg light2.png;
dontblock;
}
//#CLIENTSIDE
if (playerenters) {
setcoloreffect 1,1,1,0.99;
drawaslight;
}


then you just add your move in like this:

if (created) {
setimg light2.png;
dontblock;
}

if (timeout) {
move 10,10,2,4 //the 4 in the options slot makes it stop at a wall
timeout=.5
//#CLIENTSIDE
if (playerenters) {
setcoloreffect 1,1,1,0.99;
drawaslight;
}

Then it will not go on walls it will move 10 tiles and loop.

well its not supposed to but anyway if toran cant script and wants to learn move (the worlds simplist command) he should just read the new features.

You shouldn't talk, strequals and trigger action are even easier and you needed help on them

OK, I'll explain to you what trigger action does, but first one thing:
1.) Making fun of people will most likely get you flamed

Now for triggeraction:
Triggeraction will allow you to trigger a certain action on the level which can be read by:
if (actionname) {blah;}
Triggeraction is what it used in the mining job I believe, it is also used for the catch net
read the newfeatures.txt for a good explanation of it which includes a sample script

err, almost every job script on graal 2001 uses triggeraction triggeraction is used to make actions occur at specific points ... it is a very very VERY useful command ...
