Working on a game.

[Homakruz]

Well I decided to start scripting again, as stated in a earlier topic, So im going to make a small... not to mention pointless game to get back on track.

I'm going to post questions in this topic so i don't have to make a new topic everytime.

Heres the latest version

I just added, some walking animations & boundaries

Yes I know the guy who is following has to fast of a walking animation for his speed, Ill fix that later. Right now im working on making it so the guy doesnt trip out when he gets on the same axis as you. :D shouldn't take to long.

Cool, I've seen you're work before, Its quite cool.
I've been having trouble with alot of experiments of different methods on hitTesting boundaries,
if you could help me out on it, I would help you out on your game.

I thought this was going to be another garbage one but thats looks pretty good. I made the red guy keep running into the block :D

Good luck in the making.

Whats the game going to be about?

[Homakruz]

Im not sure yet, im gonna help my friend in his multimedia class (flash) with it, it'll be his final project which hes been working on... A sorta fighting rpg sorta thing, its kinda wierd though. But his sucks and i don't want him to fail so i told him i'd help.

[Lui]

Can I join in :D, I just need to know that hitTest code.

[Homakruz]

:D really weren't you begging for it before :P... No jk I'll give it to now since im nice :D
Ill send a pm explaining it

[Lui]

YAY! Ur my hero!

[Homakruz]

Oopsee forgot I have it at school, I'll have to send it tommorow, sorry :(.

[Homakruz]

*oops* DP my bad

[Lui]

Lol, I smell an XCash Fine :P,
Anyway, ah Ill wait til tommorow, lucky you guys have computer class, I don't now, used to when I was like 10 or something, if we had Computer Classes here, dude..I'd already kick everyone's bottom, even the teachers...

(All the teachers have to ask help from me when they sometimes work on the computer XD)

[Homakruz]

I still can't figure out why the red dude trips out when he gets on an equal axis with me char :( lol.

Im bored right now, I'm gonna look for old flash on my comp, ill post if i find any so you can play something lol.

[Lui]

Try something like,

if (_root.red._x == _root.blue._x && _root.red._y == _root.blue._y){
//the code that would lower the follow speed to follow the circle
}else{
//the code that you use to follow.
}

[Homakruz]

ive already tried that, I think i know why though ill have to check at school

[arkhan]

well..Im suposing he have a normal speed, and he moves toward the green dude axis with that speed..
if thats the case, then what hapends is that, usually, the green dude isnt on the exact same axis of the red guy..so the red uy moves toward it, but it moves the number of his speed, and that cuses him to pass the green dude..so he have to go back..then forward..then back..the forward...and well..you got the idea..
what you must do to correct it, is to move the red guy only the diference between him and the green dude when the diference is smaller than his speed..

[Lui]

O_O, arkhan, can you tell me how to make an MC follow another MC?

[Homakruz]

I never thought about that arkhan, but your probably right. I'll try to change it 7th block, thanks! :)... I have video annual first so... no flash. Plus we use old computers that wouldn't even be able to handle flash.
