Disagree with that person? Screw em.

Depending on your sexual orientation, of course 

So, posting bad comments about someone's game is a way to get in their pants? Hmmm, think I'll go and make some comments ...  

I've never heard of any of the people who mentioned me.

I love all of you. And I love none of you. I suspect everyone. And I suspect no-one.

Watch out Nik, there's a battleship after them!

Proof of the ineffable wisdom of this esteemed forum is that they've never made me a moderator. We have mild-mannered people running this joint instead, and a very relaxing joint they roll, too.

What about that Pumaman guy. He's posted more than everyone else and still has no games out...  in fact everyone who has posted more than me has never released a full game... Gilbot, m0ds, Scummbuddy

oh, well then...

Code: ags

int i;

function rock_anyclick() {
  if (Rand(100)>99) {
     player.inventory[iOre.ID]++;
     i++;
     if (i>10000) {
        player.mining_ability++;
        i=0;
     }
}

But seriously, you're trying to get us to specify a huge game mechanic. Work out how you get magic ability and spell points, work out how many point and ability you need for each type of spell and then come back and ask again.

you need to download the usb wand support plugin or the fairy dust module. 


But seriously... What do you mean by magic?

The problem was that I didn't take scaling into account in calculating where "above a character" was, so when a character was scaled down small, like riseryn's, the module placed the text above his head as if he were unscaled, meaning a huge gap. Its an easy fix, but I ain't got the code on this computer easily to hand.

Someone should go there and discuss the game "Left Behind" or come to that, "The Shivah"

Ah, OK, you probably only want to run that code when you're not using the cursor mode Use, so stick an if around it to that effect.

Can you upload a sample game?

What are the X and Y coordinates of your player character?

I am outnumbered by girls in my house 3 to 1. Also, I don't call it a pink car, I call it a car enabled with a chromatic anti-theft device. This relies on the anti-gay prejudice of the common thief and joyrider.

What speech mode have you set? Sierra? Lucasarts?

When I started driving a pink car, people at work used to make jokes but I just said "Does the pink car threaten you, somehow?" and that usually stopped them.

The GetTranslation should do nothing if the game is in default langauge. Are you sure it is set back to Italian? But, you can just put this in, instead,  if it still doesn't work:

Code: ags

if (IsTranslationAvailable()) madetext=GetTranslation(madetext);

You need to use:

Code: ags

Hypertext.Say(player, "Hello")
// not player.Say...

That is still true with the new code?

Ooops, yes, add this line after all the ifs but before the other code:

Code: ags

madetext=GetTranslation(madetext);

Translations should be done with the translation file mechanism.

What error message do you get?

You'll need to put this code at the end of the function:

Code: ags

buffer = Game.GetLocationName(mouse.x, mouse.y);
madetext=madetext.Append(buffer);
gui[0].Controls[7].AsLabel.Text=madetext;
