I modified the desk so the computer sits underneath and you can wheel it out. One of my greatest achievements! 

[NON BLOCKING WAIT FUNCTION]

What you need a NON BLOCKING WAIT FUNCTION

This topic has no doubt been covered before, but I'll dispense my knowledge nonetheless.

In my early programming days, when I was young and naive, I used my own custom-made, non-blocking timer that involved playing a silent sound clip (~ 1 sec) and repeatedly checking if the sound was still playing (with IsSoundPlaying(), now obsolete) in the repeatedly execute function.  When the sound wasn't playing, the timer had expired and an action could continue.

I then discovered these..

SetTimer (int timerID, int cycles)
IsTimerExpired(int timerID)

I tried to implement the above functions in a similar fashion to the 'sound check' method, but discovered that IsTimerExpired() actually only returns true once, then false again.  This is unlike IsSoundPlaying() which will always return false when there is no sound.

So you can try sticking this in your global script..

Code: AGS

bool pause_timer_state;

function pause_timer(int cycles)
{
  if (cycles == 0)
  {
    if (pause_timer_state == 0) return 0;  // timer has expired
    else return 1;
  }
  else
  {
    SetTimer(1, cycles);
    pause_timer_state = 1;
  } 
}

function repeatedly_execute()
{ 
  if ((pause_timer_state == 1) & (IsTimerExpired(1) == true)) pause_timer_state = 0;
}

Call pause_timer(cycles) to set the timer, where cycles (> 0) is the duration of the timer.
Call pause_timer(0) from repeatedly execute to check if timer has expired.

This code only uses one timer (ID=1), but you could modify the code to introduce multiple timers.

ALSO..
Don't forget to include eNoBlock when NPC is walking or animating.

I'd like to volunteer for the role of belching plant. Please send me the script so I can rehearse.

Chuck Norris VS the mole people

Brilliant! If no other takers, I'm gonna steal adopt that idea for my next project..

I love big butts too!

How's

Too bad it was your good hand that you tied.

possibly a counter-insult?

Implies the idiot tied the wrong hand because he's an idiot!

Ahem..

I've seen better fighting style in a small hedgehog!

You've been playing too much Sonic the Hedgehog.

---------------------------------

I've seen better fighting style from a pudgy Italian plumber!

I am above fighting such a coward as you!

Look out! Aww.. Too late. You just trod in dog poo!

Your theatrical moves belong in a Gilbert and Sullivan play!

Correct. Good work Gribbler. You certainly know your stuff. And i must agree, Sherlock (in disguise) does look a lot like John Cleese in this sketch.. scene.

bbX1138 - no

and Gribbler - no

I'll give you a clue.. it's a fake moustache!

Aye, your comedy act is well known. Folk laugh til they cry and fall to their knees.

Michael.
Sounds like you're on the right track.

It's toonstruck 2. But I'm not sure what the connection is. I've never actually played this but I've seen the screen shot before when I googled the old toonstruck looking for some music from that game. According to the Wikipedia entry for toonstruck there was additional material made but not included in the first game, and it has been or will be released in a second game.

Good work getting into the

Good luck!

Also, check this promo I made recently. You might see a clue somewhere that might help.

As far whiffiness goes.. you take the lead.

[MEGA MART MAZE WALKTHROUGH]

Hey mate.

I'll send you a walk through of the mall maze tomorrow when I can get to the computer. Didn't get a chance tonight. Using iPhone.

Sounds like you're nearly there anyway. If you got to level 3 and are in the right grid cell, then just try going down a couple of flights of stairs back to level 1.


MEGA MART MAZE WALKTHROUGH

Starting at the entrance, proceed as follows:

Level	Cell	Go through door *
1	D1	1
1	C2	1
1	C3	0
1	B4	3
2	B5	2
2	C5	2
2	D5	2
2	E5	2
2	F5	3
3	G5	2
3	G4	2
2	G3	1
