Moving Class

[tlf288]

I want to help out the Graal community so I will be posting things for playerworld to use.

This class can be used for NPCs to move around:

NPC Code:

---

/*****************************

 * name: people              *

 * type: class               *

 * by: Trevor (Scripter)     *

 *****************************/

canwarp;

if(timeout){

  

  if(this.step>=arraylen(this.moveVecX)){

    this.step=0;

    dir=this.moveDirC[0];

    this.distWent=0;

    x=this.baseX;

    y=this.baseY;

  }

  

  if(dir==1||dir==3){

    if(this.distWent>=abs(this.moveVecX[this.step])){

      this.distWent=0;

      this.step++;

      dir=this.moveDirC[this.step];

    }

  }else if(dir==0||dir==2){

    if(this.distWent>=abs(this.moveVecY[this.step])){

      this.distWent=0;

      this.step++;

      dir=this.moveDirC[this.step];

    }

  }

  

  this.nX=x+vecx(dir)*(this.speed/2);

  this.nY=y+vecy(dir)*(this.speed/2);

  

  this.testP=testplayer(this.nX+1.5+vecx(dir),this.n  Y+2+vecy(dir));

  if(this.testP>=0){

    setcharani idle,;

    this.messageOn=true;

    this.message=1;

    doMessage();

    if(this.hold==false){

      this.hold=true;

    }

  }else{this.hold=false; message;}

  

  if(this.hold==false){

    setcharani walk,;

    move this.nX-x,this.nY-y,.1,2+16;

    this.distWent+=(this.speed/2);

  }

  timeout=.1;

}



function doMessage()

  {

  if(this.messageOn==true){

    if(this.message==1){

      message #R(#s(this.message));

      this.message=-1;

    }

    sleep4;

    this.messageOn=false;

  }

}

Here is an example DBNPC for the class:

NPC Code:

---

join people;

if (initialized) {

  showcharacter;

  setcharprop #C0,orange;

  setcharprop #C1,darkblue;

  setcharprop #C2,blue;

  setcharprop #C3,black;

  setcharprop #C4,black;

  setcharprop #n,*Debbie (Police);

  setcharprop #2,shield3.gif;

  setcharprop #3,head21.png;

  setcharprop #8,body4.png;

  setcharprop #P1,hat92.png;

  setcharprop #1,zeroriotstick-sword.png;

  shieldpower=1;

  this.speed=1;

  ap=100;

this.moveVecX={ 4, 0, -4,   0}

this.moveVecY={ 0, 4,   0, -4}

this.moveDirC={ 3, 2, 1, 0}

dir=this.moveDirC[0];

this.step=0;

this.baseX=x;  // You may want to change this var to the start x

this.baseY=y;  //                           ""-x + y

timeout=.1;

setstring this.message,Welcome to Graal2001!,Enjoy your stay :),Hope you have fun here at Graal2001;

}

You can use both of these freely as long as you keep the credits in the script.

I think it's required for the DBNPC to read it. I'm not sure, I've never seen it before either.

Ding ding ding! It is one of those things unless you talk to people on debug (Jagen in particularly) you would never know about it. Becasue, Stefan documents nothing.

I am sure Stefan resents that.
*cough* Though it is true. *cough*

Possibly, although it's still at least partially true.

Partially? He doesn't document ANYTHING now'a'days.

[HoudiniMan]

He should keep a log somewhere, maybe like a journal... people would know what he did with his time or he could at least say "-added #R today"

lol that sounds almost comical, I can see it now, "Stefan's Adventure Log: The Lost Tales of Nice but Unknown Scripting Commands". Sure that would work out well. I think that he should get a documentor who would document for him.

Documentor (secretary) requires money. Of which Stefan has no extra.

He doesn't pay anyone else, like PWAs / Global Admins, why would he pay this person?

For this person to document stuff they would have to be in his office. This would be a real life job.

Not true. Jagen is on debug and he knows a lot of this stuff. I'd love to do something like that, just go though scripts and try to find new things...

XD! I suggested that a long time ago, never even knew it was added

If he couldn't keep a log, why would he tell somebody on graal that he hired?
