Sideview Ladder

[Sephiroth]

Well, I know of the global script for sideview ladders, however I want an FFC version of it. Is there any chance on getting an FFC version of it, seeing as I don't plan on having too many sideview sections in my quest, and I don't want to be using up a global script slot (Seeing as we only have two).

Edit: Oh shoot, I posted this in the wrong place. Can I get someone to move it to requests?

Edit2: I tried the ladder FFC script CJC wrote, however for some reason in 864 link flickers, and acts as if he's falling when he's moving around on a ladder.

The reason he flickers is because of how sideview gravity is coded. I might make a slight change in that regard. Otherwise, use this:

const float GRAVITY = 0.16;

// Use Slow Walk combos for the ladder.
ffc script SideviewLadder {
  void run {
    if (Screen->ComboT[ComboAt(Link->X, Link->Y+15)]==CT_WALKSLOW)
    {
      Link->Jump = GRAVITY; // Negate gravity
      if (Link->InputUp && WalkableAt(Link->X+16, Link->Y+8) && WalkableAt(Link->X, Link->Y+8))
        Link->Y-=1;
      else if (Link->InputDown && WalkableAt(Link->X, Link->Y+16) && WalkableAt(Link->X+16, Link->Y+16))
        Link->Y+=1;
      if (WalkableAt(Link->X, Link->Y+16)) {
        Link->InputA = false;
        Link->InputB = false;
        // Change tiles
      }
    }
  }
}

You'll also need the WalkableAt method (or similar) defined somewhere.

// Determines whether a coordinate is walkable. 
bool WalkableAt(int x, int y)
{
  int x2 = Link->X % 16;
  int y2 = Link->Y % 16;
  int mask;

  if (x2 >= 8)
    mask = 1;
  else 
    mask = 2;
  if (y2 >= 8)
    mask << 2;
  return ((Screen->ComboS[ComboAt(x,y)] & mask)==0);
}

I might add WalkableAt to std.zh soon.

Don't think of global scripts in the same way that you think of FFC scripts. If you want a whole lot of mini-scripts to run every frame, you make them into methods within the global script, then have the run() method call them every frame. Like so:

global script Global {
 void FireSword() { 
 // imagine that there's code here
 }
 void RevivingEnemies() {
 // imagine that there's code here
 }
 void SpecialPowerTimer() {
 // imagine that there's code here
 }
 void run() {
  FireSword();
  RevivingEnemies();
  SpecialPowerTimer();
  Waitframe();
 }
}

      if (Link->InputUp && WalkableAt(Link->X+16, Link->Y+8) && WalkableAt(Link->X, Link->Y+8))
        Link->Y-=1;
      else if (Link->InputDown && WalkableAt(Link->X, Link->Y+16) && WalkableAt(Link->X+16, Link->Y+16))
        Link->Y+=1;
      if (WalkableAt(Link->X, Link->Y+16)) {
        Link->InputA = false;
        Link->InputB = false;
        // Change tiles
      }
    }
  }

{
  int x2 = Link->X % 16;

  int mask;

  if (x2 >= 8)
    mask = 1;
  else 
    mask = 2;
  if (y2 >= 8)
    mask << 2;
  return ((Screen->ComboS[ComboAt(x,y)] & mask)==0);
}

I might add WalkableAt to std.zh soon.

If you do, would you mind calling it isSolid rather than WalkableAt?

Well, if you insist.
