Post by: Aminaga on March 20, 2005, 11:43:56 AM: Okay, I'm trying to make a cool mini game in The Blade of Champion where your in an escape pod, and you're trying to get away from the exploding airship which will kill you if you run into it.

So, how can you make a program on your board that tries to come at you, and kill you?

Post by: Number Eight on March 20, 2005, 08:33:46 PM: Well, that's what I said.

Code: [Select]
:loop #playerX[0]!=followx! #playerY[0]!=followy! #ItemStep(<put your item number here>, followx!, followy!) #ItemStep(<put your item number here>, followx!, followy!) #ItemStep(<put your item number here>, followx!, followy!) #ItemStep(<put your item number here>, followx!, followy!) #ItemStep(<put your item number here>, followx!, followy!) #branch(:loop) That should work. Of course you can change how many itemsteps depending on how fast you want the thing to go. I'm not quite sure how to get the thing to run the game over program if it gets you, but you can try making it run the game over program as the "pick up" program.

Obviously, Colin fixed this for TK3. (Right? Heh...)

Post by: Dude Man on March 28, 2005, 02:00:43 PM: Heh, yeah. If you need a tip on how to do that, you could have a wait(a$) thing, going on. And when you press UP or DOWN or LEFT or RIGHT. You use the Push Command, and then update the cords.

Hey! That would work. I thing I'm going to make a Mini-Game like that, or something... <_<

In TK3, they _should_ be always up to date, but if they're somehow not, there's even a setConstants() function. Smile

This is assuming you are using TK3, and you don't mind using the generic game over command.
