making a character vanish from a room

[buckroger]

Hi,

I just want to know to make a character vanish from the current room. Example, two characters are colliding (fighting), if one of the characters health reaches 0, he will die and disappear from the room. How do you guys do this?

Thanks!   

[Mr Jake]

character[XXX].room = Y

XXX = the characters script name.
Y = room number (just make it -1)

Thanks HotSpotÃ, 

I just did this as you said.

if (AreCharactersColliding(EGO,JACK)==1)
{
Ã,  Display("You're bumping against me!");
Ã,  StopMoving(JACK);
Ã,  character[JACK].room = -1;
}

I set my 2nd character JACK to FollowCharacterEx(JACK, EGO, 1, 10) when EGO enters the room for the first time. But after JACK bumps EGO, he just goes back to his starting position and starts walking towards EGO. JACK is supposed to be in room -1 after he bumps EGO...

I guess if I know the right command to stop JACK from following EGO after they collided, this will solve my problem... What's the command for stopping a character from following another character?

Use FollowCharacter, and set the character to follow to -1, so:

FollowCharacter (JACK, -1);
