No I don't think they do.

I'd bool personally though.

[Master Maniac]

umm... well i kinda got everything set up for it to check the HP already... i just changed it from checking the ffc's data to checking the enemies HP...

i could change it to bool but it seems pointless to me.

would you like to see it now?

[Joe123]

If you want to show it to me

[Master Maniac]

ok then XD

im sure that its done now too... except for attacking.

import "std.zh"
ffc script eyesore{
	void run(int barieo, int bar){

		int x;	int y;
		int speed = 2;

		npc ghosted_hp_enemy1 = Screen->CreateNPC(barieo);
		npc ghosted_hp_enemy2 = Screen->CreateNPC(barieo);
		npc ghosted_hp_enemy3 = Screen->CreateNPC(barieo);
		npc ghosted_hp_enemy4 = Screen->CreateNPC(barieo);		
		ffc eye1 = Screen->LoadFFC(1);
		ffc eye2 = Screen->LoadFFC(2);
		ffc eye3 = Screen->LoadFFC(3);
		ffc eye4 = Screen->LoadFFC(4);
		ffc center = Screen->LoadFFC(5);
		ghosted_hp_enemy1->HP = bar;
		ghosted_hp_enemy2->HP = bar;
		ghosted_hp_enemy3->HP = bar;
		ghosted_hp_enemy4->HP = bar;

		while (true){

			eye1-> Vx = speed;
			eye1-> Vy = speed;
			ghosted_hp_enemy1->X = eye1-> X;
			ghosted_hp_enemy1->Y = eye1-> Y;

			if(Screen->ComboF[ComboAt(eye1->Y)] == 98){
				eye1->Vy *= -1;
				
			}

			if(Screen->ComboF[ComboAt(eye1->X)] == 98){
				eye1-> Vx *= -1;

			}

			if((ghosted_hp_enemy1->HP)==0){
				eye1->Data = 0;

			}

			eye2-> Vx = speed;
			eye2-> Vy = speed;
			ghosted_hp_enemy2->X = eye2-> X;
			ghosted_hp_enemy2->Y = eye2-> Y;

			if(Screen->ComboF[ComboAt(eye2->Y)] == 98){
				eye2-> Vy *= -1;
				
			}

			if(Screen->ComboF[ComboAt(eye2->X)] == 98){
				eye2-> Vx *= -1;

			}

			if((ghosted_hp_enemy2->HP)==0){
				eye2->Data = 0;

			}

			eye3-> Vx = speed;
			eye3-> Vy = speed;
			ghosted_hp_enemy3->X = eye3-> X;
			ghosted_hp_enemy3->Y = eye3-> Y;

			if(Screen->ComboF[ComboAt(eye3->Y)] == 98){
				eye3-> Vy *= -1;	
			}

			if(Screen->ComboF[ComboAt(eye3->X)] == 98){
				eye3-> Vx *= -1;

			}

			if((ghosted_hp_enemy3->HP)==0){
				eye3->Data = 0;

			}

			eye4-> Vx = speed;
			eye4-> Vy = speed;
			ghosted_hp_enemy4->X = eye4-> X;
			ghosted_hp_enemy4->Y = eye4-> Y;
			
			if(Screen->ComboF[ComboAt(eye4->Y)] == 98){
				eye4-> Vy *= -1;
				
			}

			if(Screen->ComboF[ComboAt(eye4->X)] == 98){
				eye4-> Vx *= -1;

			}

			if((ghosted_hp_enemy4->HP)==0){
				eye4->Data = 0;

			}

			if(ghosted_hp_enemy1->HP ==0 && ghosted_hp_enemy2->HP == 0 && ghosted_hp_enemy3->HP == 0 && ghosted_hp_enemy4->hp == 0){
				center->Data = 0;

			}

			Waitframe();
		}
	}

however, i would like to know how the best way to bool it is tho.

would it be like this:

if(Bool(ghosted_hp_enemy1 && ghosted_hp_enemy2 && ghosted_hp_enemy3 && ghosted_hp_enemy4 == false)){

or like this:

if(Bool(ghosted_hp_enemy1 == false) && Bool(ghosted_hp_enemy2 == false) && Bool(ghosted_hp_enemy3 == false) && Bool(ghosted_hp_enemy4 == false)){

also, would i use one equal sign or 2? i understand that = means "is set to" and == means "is equal to" but im not sure which i would use with bool. and bool does need to be capitalized, too right?

[Joe123]

'ComboAt(x,y)' takes two parameters.
You can't put 'ComboAt(x)', because coordinates have two parts to them.

You've done that a lot.


And I don't know what you think you're doing with booleans, but it shouldn't be anything like that...

A bool is just a variable with two states.
So you do it like this:

	void run(){
	bool eye1check;
	bool eye2check;
	//etc...
	
	//......
		while(true){
		//....

			if(!eye1->IsValid) eye1check = true;
			if(!eye2->IsValid) eye1check = true;
			//etc...

			if(eye1check && eye2check && etc){
				//do stuff
			}

...?

this confuses me...

i thought ! meant "not"?

[Joe123]

It does, what's confusing?

[Master Maniac]

			if(!eye1->IsValid) eye1check = true;
			if(!eye2->IsValid) eye1check = true;

this part. you said ! meant "not" right? then this says "if not eye1 is valid..."

does this mean that "if anything other than eye1 exists"? of does it check near eye1 for anything out of the ordinary like flags?

[Gleeok]

isValid is a bool already. It can either mean true or false.




So;

if(!eye1->IsValid) eye1check = true;

Translation:

if eye1 is not found, (it died), eye1check becomes true.

ahh i understand now lol

thank you gleeok =)
