walkTo() void?

[pkmnfrk]

That's a good question. I don't know. Probably, but I can't say for sure.

Either way, for completeness, here's the moveLinkTowards function:

void moveLinkTowards(int x, int y, int speed) {
	int angle = findAngle(Link->X, Link->Y, x, y);
	float dx = RadianSin(angle) * speed;
	float dy = RadianCos(angle) * speed;
	
	Link->X += dx;
	Link->Y += dy;
}

Note that the first parameter is missing; there's only one Link (currently).

EDIT: For other variations on this script, ask this guy

Hahaha, that comic was pretty funny =P

It's not working!

Link->Dir = DIR_UP;
Link->Action = LA_WALKING;
moveLinkTowards(168,120,5);
Link->Action = LA_FROZEN;
Screen->Message(25);
Link->Dir = DIR_DOWN;
Link->Action = LA_WALKING;
moveLinkTowards(168,168,5);
Link->Action = LA_NONE;

It plays the message but doesn't make Link walk.

It's in a while loop right? I don't know much about scripting but i believe this just changes link position once then plays the message the changes links position one again. I think the code need to be:

bool a;
while(true) {
    if(a == false) {
        Link->Dir = DIR_UP;
        Link->Action = LA_WALKING;
        moveLinkTowards(168,120,5);
    }
    if(Link->X == 168 && Link->Y == 120) {
        Link->Action = LA_FROZEN;
        Screen->Message(25);
        Link->Dir = DIR_DOWN;
        a = true;
    }
    if(a) {
        Link->Action = LA_WALKING;
        moveLinkTowards(168,168,5);
        Link->Action = LA_NONE;
    }
}

There's probably a better way to do this(if this even works; I haven't tested it) Also, I think you need the quest rule "Messages freeze all action" for this to work.

Worse. ZC froze completely except for the music. I wouldn't even let me close it without using task manager.

Mega Link: /slap

First thing: This moves Link one step toward the intended target. You have to call it more than once, until Link gets there.

Just be careful about checking absolute position if you use my script, since FFCs won't necessarily be pixel-aligned any more.

So, if you need to check an exact position, do something like:

if(Floor(theffc->X) == 120 && Floor(theffc->Y) == 80) //do something

What you mean to do is something like:

Link->Dir = DIR_UP;
Link->Action = LA_WALKING; //I don't think this does what you think it does...

//I also made Link move at 4 pixels/tick, since that will actually get him where he's going
while(Abs(Link->X - 168) > 4 || Abs(Link->Y - 120) > 4) {
  moveLinkTowards(168,120,4);
  Waitframe();
}

Link->Action = LA_FROZEN;
Screen->Message(25);


Link->Dir = DIR_DOWN;
Link->Action = LA_WALKING;

while(Abs(Link->X - 168) > 4 || Abs(Link->Y - 168) > 4) {
  moveLinkTowards(168,168,4);
  Waitframe();
}

Link->Action = LA_NONE;

To both of you: /slap

To make Link move up and down along the Y axis, you don't need advanced trigonometry! This will suffice:

Link->Dir = DIR_UP;
Link->Action = LA_WALKING;

if(Link->Y > 120) {
  while(Link->Y > 120) {
    Link->Y -= 4; //in reality, you probably want him to walk slower.
    Waitframe();
  }
} else {
  while(Link->Y < 120) {
    Link->Y += 4; //in reality, you probably want him to walk slower.
    Waitframe();
  }
}

Link->Action = LA_FROZEN;
Screen->Message(25);


Link->Dir = DIR_DOWN;
Link->Action = LA_WALKING;

while(Link->Y < 168) {
  Link->Y += 4; //in reality, you probably want him to walk slower.
  Waitframe();
}

Link->Action = LA_NONE;

[Mega Link]

Link is walking too fast, and he faces down before the message is done playing.

Btw, yes the side warp did get triggered.

[pkmnfrk]

Try changing the loops to look like this:

while(Link->Y < 168) {
  Link->Y += 1;
  Waitframes(4); //note the 's'
}

[Mega Link]

I tried that but Link walked too slow, so I changed the 1 to a 2, and it works. To fix the problem where he faces down before the message is done, I added a Waitframe(); after Screen->Message(25);.

Link->Dir = DIR_UP;
Link->Action = LA_WALKING;

if(Link->Y > 120) {
  while(Link->Y > 120) {
	Link->Y -= 2; //in reality, you probably want him to walk slower.
	Waitframes(4);
  }
} else {
  while(Link->Y < 120) {
	Link->Y += 2; //in reality, you probably want him to walk slower.
	Waitframes(4);
  }
}

Link->Action = LA_FROZEN;
Screen->Message(25);
Waitframe();

Link->Dir = DIR_DOWN;
Link->Action = LA_WALKING;

while(Link->Y < 168) {
  Link->Y += 2; //in reality, you probably want him to walk slower.
  Waitframes(4);
}

Link->Action = LA_NONE;

Ya like I said, I don't know to much about ZScript. I should probably learn more before I try to help people. Anyways, glad to hear you got it working Mega Link.
