[ran]

Yep, I'm trying to wrap my caveman brain around scripting again. Hold on to your butts

I want to make it so that the room will randomly pan around to each corner of the screen, using the Tween module like so:

Code: ags

function room_AfterFadeIn()
{
  if (ran==0) TweenViewport(7.0, 0, 0);
  else if (ran==1) TweenViewport(7.0, 0, 247);
  else if (ran==2) TweenViewport(7.0, 349, 0);
  else if (ran==3) TweenViewport(7.0, 349, 247);
  }

(never mind the odd coordinates, the background used is slightly larger than the game's resolution of 320x200)

What I'm struggling to understand is how to define a ran variable that gets its value from the Random function. From what I've read in the Help file, I should be able to simply do:

Code: ags

int ran=Random(2);

This, however, makes AGS freak out and tell me "Expected integer value after '='". So, could someone more intelligent than me please explain how to do this right? Furthermore, the plan is to have the screen pan around for several seconds before moving on to something else, how would I tell it to do that?

Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade.

I knew it was, I still gotta play that game sometime

D/Generation.

I can see the picture just fine, but I'm withholding my answer in case anybody else knows.

Fantastic I've never played the original Gateway so I might just try this instead.

Galaxy Quest?

Gribbler gets it! I figured the picture of the Bremen musicians over the fireplace would be a dead giveaway, dunno if that did it or what. Either way, your turn

Still no.

I think that might be the first time I've ever seen Atavismus get something wrong Nope.

Next hint: this game is aimed at kids.

No.

It's not KQ or QFG, but it is still fantasy-ish.

Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas?

Still none right so far.

None right so far, but Chrille's answer is getting closer.

Oh, whoopsie Close enough I guess. Saw the game on Ross's Game Dungeon so that's where I first learned about its existence

One of the Rambo movies?

Well remembered, dayowlron One of my favorite movies, must've watched it dozens of times on DVD back in the day.
