Title: object moving is too quick
Post by: xenogia on Tue 16/09/2003 11:50:43
How do you make MoveObject command slower I put the speed to 1 and it still way to fast.

I'm not sure but isn't the movement faster when you use a smaller value? Or was it that way with animation speed? I can't remember :(
And AGS probably doesn't accept negative values, does it?

Edit, apparently, not anymore. with the following reply as my basis.

Well you can always script up a slower movement by using repeatedly_execute, Timers and moving it one pixel at a time.

Exact code left as an exercise to the reader.

Or you could set the game frame rate to 10, which would slow eveyrthing else down, too...

Well actually I had suggested something about it some time earlier:

but seems that it got forgotten, I'll add it to the tracker now:
