nm I figured something out.

I have 2 characters in the same room, with a fence that seperates them. I have made paths that change room on both sides. I used eBlock, but both characters can still exit both spots. How do I make it so each character with an accesible walking area can only leave from that spot?

perfect! I am slowly understanding. thanks so much!

that worked great. even though I cannot comprehend some of it. My brain just cant follow the logical path of why its working. anyway. Now when I Pull ,push,open, the lever it says engage on all instances. Not a huge deal. Thanks for your help!

okay that's cool to know, but I am still lost

trying to make a combination lock without using integers. I am terrible at math.
this is what I have formulated so far. I have no idea if this will even work.

Code: ags

function room_RepExec()
{
if ((((but1 == true && (but2 == true) && (but3 == true) && (but4 == true)))))
lev1 = true;
}


function hbut1_AnyClick()
{
sClick.Play();{
but1 = true;
but2 = false;
but3 = false;
but4 = false;
  
}
if (((but2 == true) && (but4 == true) && (but3 == true))){
sClick.Play();
but1 = true;
cJojo.Say("Coordinates ready");
}}

function hbut2_AnyClick()
{
sClick.Play();
but2 = true;
but1 = false;
but3 = false;
but4 = false;
}

function hbut3_AnyClick()
{
sClick.Play();{
but3 = true;
but1 = false;
but2 = false;
but4 = false;
}
if ((but2 == true) && (but4 == true)){
sClick.Play();
but3 = true;
}}

function hbut4_AnyClick()
{

sClick.Play();{
but4 = true;
but1 = false;
but2 = false;
but3 = false;
}
if (but2 == true){
sClick.Play();
but4 = true;
}}

function hlev1_AnyClick()
{
if (Verbs.UsedAction(eGA_Push)) {
cJojo.Say("I need coordinates first.");
}
if (lev1 == true){
cJojo.Say("Engage!");
sRocket.Play();

}

else if(Verbs.UsedAction(eGA_Pull)) {
   cJojo.Say("I'm already Disengaged.");
}
else if(Verbs.UsedAction(eGA_Open)) {
    cJojo.Say("What would that do?");
    
}
else if(Verbs.UsedAction(eGA_Close)) {
    cJojo.Say("What would that do?");
}
}

I figured it out. Thanks!

I dont know if that helps or not

its version 3.5. I don't understand what your asking me, but I do have some things running under repeatedly execute, and i'm wondering if that's causing it.

I have an area with a bunch of ladders and platforms and a walkable area that is 2 by 2 that connects them all. However my character seems to always get caught in certain spots, and no matter how big I make the walkable area he still freezes. I don't understand what he is catching on. Like I said though I tried expanding the areas to 5 x 5 so he would have less of a chance to get stuck, but he still does. anything I can do?

Awesome got it working!. Crimson you understood me the whole time, sorry I am just a little slow. Thanks everyone for the help!

for all 9 buttons it says OnClick     Action_click    ...

so are you saying I can create my own function there?

sorry I am using tumbleweed template.  8 of the verbs are already used, *open* *close* *look at*. etc. I made a new button to change characters when clicked, into the GUI: gMain. Now when I hit *open* for example it calls on either the global script or the verbgui to use the *open* verb. So my question is what do I have to put in there to call that function for *Change Character* when that button is clicked. Sorry if that still doesnt make sense. I either cant take screenshots or find where they are.

What I am saying is I have a 9th button made and fit into the rest of the Verbs, its a change character button. when I press it I get the error *could not find the action corresponding with this button* which makes perfect sense. It takes me to GetButtonAction in VerbGui. my question is what do I need to put in there. Sorry if I suck at making myself clear ^_^

hey I have searched relentlessy on how to change a character using verbs, to no avail. I have 3 characters in the game and I would like to be able to switch through them in order, by using one button. I made a button for the GUI already I just don't know how to connect it to the main script.  thanks!

worked perfectly thanks!. didn't know about *return*

Code: ags

function hTopDrawer_AnyClick()
{
  if (Verbs.UsedAction(eGA_WalkTo)) {
 
}else if(Verbs.UsedAction(eGA_Pull)) {
   player.Say("Try Opening it.");
   
     
}else if(Verbs.UsedAction(eGA_Push)) {
    player.Say("I don't need to Push that");

}else if(Verbs.UsedAction(eGA_Open)) {

    player.Say("Okay.");
    sDrawer.Play();
    player.Say("There was a Fork in the Drawer.");
    player.AddInventory(iFork);
    Fork1 = true;
    
}if (Fork1 == true){
    player.Say("Nothing Else.");
    
}else if(Verbs.UsedAction(eGA_Close)) {
    player.Say("Already closed.");
}
}

If I open the drawer again it just gives me the item again. However if I right click it says "nothing else"

I am trying to make my invisible player walk across a room to  to make it look like a cutscene. The room is 400 in length, so I want it topan to the other half of the room.

Code: ags

function room_Load()
{
aFog.Stop();
sAirplane.Play();
 player.Transparency = 100;
  gMain.Visible = false;

}


function room_AfterFadeIn()
{
Wait(200);
aOrcus.Play();
player.Move(35, 188, eBlock);
}

He starts on the right side of the room, but he doesn't move an inch from the spot he enters on.

my game closes with this error message  :ObjectOn: Invalid Object specified
in reference to object 3

Code: ags

function hHotspot1_UseInv()
{
if (player.ActiveInventory == (iLasso))
player.Say("Okay.");
object[1].Visible = true;
sLever.Play();
object[2].Visible = true;
object[3].Visible = true;
sLadder.Play();
object[0].Visible = true;
RestoreWalkableArea(6);

}

I have all 4 objects set to false before the character throws a switch. So why 3 of them work and the other one does not.. I have no idea

That Code boggles my mind lol. It worked tho, once again you are amazing. many thanks!
