[Global-Script:]

Ok, some scripts...

Global-Script:

function on_mouse_click(int button) {
 // called when a mouse button is clicked. button is either LEFT or RIGHT
 if (IsGamePaused() == 1) {
   // Game is paused, so do nothing (ie. don't allow mouse click)
   }
 else if (button==LEFT) {
   ProcessClick(mouse.x, mouse.y, GetCursorMode() );
   SetCursorMode(MODE_WALK);
 
   }
  else if (button==RIGHT) {
   if (GetLocationType(mouse.x, mouse.y)==2)
       { SetGlobalInt(80,9);
         ProcessClick(mouse.x, mouse.y, MODE_TALK);
         SetGlobalInt(80,0); }
   else
        { FaceLocation(GetPlayerCharacter(), mouse.x, mouse.y );
          ProcessClick(mouse.x, mouse.y, MODE_LOOK);
          SetCursorMode(MODE_WALK);
          }
   }
 }

Hotspot-Script: (door)

 // script for hotspot5: Any click on hotspot

if (GetGlobalInt(80)==0) NewRoom(1);    // walk to
else if (GetGlobalInt(80)==1) Display("That doesn't seem to work.");    // close
else if (GetGlobalInt(80)==2) Display("I can't pick that up.");      // give
else if (GetGlobalInt(80)==3) Display("It doesn't seem to open.");  // open
else if (GetGlobalInt(80)==4) Display("I can't move it."); // push
else if (GetGlobalInt(80)==5) Display("I can't move it.");  // pull
else if (GetGlobalInt(80)==6) Display("I can't pick that up.");  // pick up
else if (GetGlobalInt(80)==7) Display("That doesn't seem to work.");// use
else if (GetGlobalInt(80)==10) Display("That doesn't seem to work."); // turn on
else if (GetGlobalInt(80)==11) Display("That doesn't seem to work."); // turn off
else Display("There's nothing to read on it."); // look
SetGlobalInt(80,0);

The if (GetGlobalInt(80)==0) doesn't seem to work and I don't understand why.  

[Walkto]

*Sigh* I don't want to use the interact-mode. You don't "use" doors in SCUMM-games. Only Sierra-games work that way. I just want to click at the door in Walkto-mode and the character should leave the room.

For example: You have a room with an open door. You click at the door and the character goes to the door and leaves the room. That's all I want.  

PS.: But he should leave the room without stepping on a hotspot or a region! He should be able to walk on every part of the walkable area without leaving the room, as long as he doesn't click at the door. That way most LucasArts-games work.

[if ((button==LEFT) && (GetCursorMode()==0))]

Ok, with if ((button==LEFT) && (GetCursorMode()==0)) I'm able to differ between the Walk-mode and the other modes. That's a good idea, TK. But how should this help me to make an interaction with a special hotspot or object? This is a global script, not a room script. I can't turn on an object there or change a room or anything.  :'(

I have a script for it…

Could you please explain which part of your code you mean?  

Hail to the King, Baby!

I think it's quite important to have such a Walkto-interaction-mode. It would spare a lot of time. Why for example should I always draw a hotspot I have to stand on, to enter an open door? It's much better to have a simple interaction for that.

Hello.

Maybe a stupid question, but does anyone know how to script a "Walk to"-interaction?

And the only reason most of them don't come with their readme file is because, well, there wasn't one to begin one.

There was no need for a readme. The original site has all the necessary information.

Well, Zak2 is available in 8 languages…
At the moment it's a record, but soon KQ1VGA 3.0 comes out…  :'(

There is a black book in Annies bookshelf. Bring it her.

A very sweet game. Well done, Argentinian!

It seems that Tierra once again set new standards for AGS-games…

I used LucasFan's (I think) TTF LucasArts font. I didn't notice 1-pixel spacing... Maybe that happens with TTF.

Normally that wouldn't happen in a TTF. The trick was to move the right border of the outline-characters a "pixel" (you know there are no pixels in TTFs… ;-) ) into the left direction. Now the following character would start from that border and both would overlap each other.

Back to the weird word thing, parrot in Norwegian is papegøye.

As Mr Spock would say, "Fascinating!"

I copied little textures from FOA-screens (walls of houses, water, trees) and used a semi-transparent brush to paint them over the images.
