2. failure: currentid() only gives the editor id, not the definition id wich is required for animate
wtf?
currentid gives you the map id, and that's exactly what animate wants as first parameter.To get the Editor ID you use
type! 
EDIT
Emm I would realy like to have en example on how this works :S
can't figure out how to implement the loadani function and get it to work proberly :S
allways giving me an error :S
Where in the Unit do I need to put loadani function in??
in the script part or outside the script par or a total diferent place ?!?

### Satis Developing
id=500
name=Satis Developing
group=sign
icon=gfx\desk.bmp
model=gfx\gfx_anw\Satis_dev.b3d
health=100
mat=wood
script=start
on:preload {
loadani "500",2,6;
}
on:start {
animate currentid(),2,6,6,1;
}
script=end
I'm still not sure what the Unit-Type in the loadani is, and how it should be scriptet, like:
loadani "Unit-Type",Frame start, frame end;
or
loadani(Unit-Type,feame start,Frame end);
oh BTW: I have been serching if this function have been used in the original game and the Massive Mod, but cant find any where it have been used :S
Maby it's me who is stubid or maby some one need to explain them self a littel better :S
Kind regards

none of that.
Unit-Type is just the ID in the editor. You have to write
loadani 500,2,6;
Also, you have to write that in the game.inf, not in the units inf.
hmmm one thing that acure is that the spinning is going totaly wild :S
what is the speed in milliseconds or frams pr second,
for one animation until it starts over again ?
And one other thing.
The animation I have set it from frame 2-6 but is that only the points where 2,3,4,5,6 is at or will it take the small animation betwean those frame numbersa as well ??
EDIT
Allso a new question.
Is there a way to check if an combi is locked or unlocket ??
Kind regards

msg "Stone Hammer is broken",4;
}
script=end
what am I missing ??
I tryed to debug it in the editor, but it don't give any errors ?!?
Kind regards Satis
You've got to change the line with the timer like this:
timer "self",9000,1,"combinationhammer";
And write the other things in teh game.inf like this:
1
2
3
4
5
6
2
3
4
5

on:combinationhammer {
speech "positive";
event "hammercombi",0,0;
msg "I successfully made a better hammer",3;
msg "Stone Hammer is broken",4;
}
Thanks for the hint Flying Lizard
Kind regards

i don't know, but you could set global variables in the unlocking script (game.inf)
if I make all those variables in the game.inf just set them from 0-1 depending on they are unlocked or not, will all those variables be saved if in a adventur if I'm going from one map to another ??
and where in the game.inf should they be ??
in the script part and if so, in what on cammand then ?
//Satis
EDIT
Wops sorry for not editing my last post :S
They will be saved
so to set the variables in the start of a new game, I set them in the on:start and then make a on:load where it will check if they are true or falsh if it was a loaded map??

no edit
some one answered after that post, so I had to folow up on that post
//Satis
EDIT
Ha now I'm going to edit it
how do you extend a text in a
msgbox ??like this one:
msgbox "Skill Info","sys/skillinfos/cooking.inf";
I know that I can setup the cooking.inf file so I can set up the msgbox like this:
msgbox "Skill Info","sys/skillinfos/cooking.inf","cooking1";
if I have a cooking2 how do I extend it to the curently messagebox ??

Question
Can I use buttons in
msgbox ?if so, how?
I have tryed to make the buttons in the "mymessagefile.inf" file, that I have linket to by the
msgbox command, but it wont do :S//Satis
edited 1×, last 08.10.07 07:38:22 pm
msgbox with the button command. you have to write it AFTER the msgbox command.You also can use
dialogue instead of msgbox which makes it much easier for you
