Post by: PROJECTBENTLY on February 22, 2005, 07:48:18 PM: Does anyone know a simple car code in which cars will "wander around"on the streets yet you can still get into them? And out of them.

If you can't do you think I should have parked cars be new players and moving cars be npc?

Post by: Aminaga on February 22, 2005, 08:01:03 PM: Uhg! Even I know this! First, go to "Edit Main File", and go to "Startup Info"
and then make a program simaler to this.

Code: [Select]
Only type this if you just wan't to change the graphics: #Newplyr("car.tem") Do this if you wan't to make a whole different player: #AddPlayer("car.tem") #RemovePlayer("aminaga.tem") Then choose "Save As", and save it as like "get into car" or something.
P.S. Does your game have anything to do with the game: "Mini Cars"?

Note I may have messed up on the create item command.

newPlyr() is probably the most effective function to use.

Post by: Dude Man on February 22, 2005, 08:47:19 PM: Well yeah, that two. But I mean. He'll go to the car, and the car will still be parked, but he'll be driveing to, and that's no good.

So the code should look like...

Code: [Select]
#Newplyr("car.tem") #DestroyItem(slotX)
and when he exits the car

Code: [Select]
#Newplyr("pat.tem") #CreateItem("car.itm", slotX, x!, y!)

Post by: Xorlak on February 23, 2005, 08:47:01 PM: I would do something like this:

- Give the car the regular old wander.prg as its runtime program (actually a car wandering around aimlessly crashing into things wouldn't be very realistic, heh... You'll probably want to give it a set path)

- As its activation program, give it this, assuming the car is item 0:

Code: [Select]
#eraseitem(0) #destroyitem(0) #newplyr("car.tem") #walkspeed("fast") * or whatever in TK3... #incar! = 1
Now you'll probably want to get out of the car at some point. Set this as a run time program when you press the "E" key (for Exit car, or whatever you want):

Code: [Select]
#if(incar!==1) { #createitem("car.itm",car!) #putitem(car!,playerX[0]!,playerY[0]!,playerLayer[0]!) #newplyr("yournormalcharacter.tem") #walkspeed("slow") #incar!=0 }

Post by: Colin on February 23, 2005, 10:07:01 PM: The whole walkspeed thing is now obsolete. GameSpeed included.

All players and items can have their own speeds. Smile

GameSpeed is now used as an overall control thing, for menus and whatnot.
