Hi,

I want to create sprites in scene by this script

Code: [Select]

for (var b=0;b<10;b=b+10)
{
var tree = Scene.CreateEntity();
tree.SetSprite("gfx\tree1.png");
var c =  Random(1,3);
if (c == 3)
{
tree.X = b; tree.Y = 340;
}
}


... but I don`t know how to attach a name to every tree.

Entities have several properties, one of which is the name. So you can use:

Code: WME Script

1. tree.Name

Check the documentation http://docs.dead-code.org/, go to: Scripting in Wme -> Script Language reference and take a look at the "Entity Object" to learn what else you can do with entities.

[metamorphium]

Scene.CreateEntity(EntityName);

...oh sorry i find my mistake, it wasn`t in same names of entities, it was in first line

Code: [Select]

for (var b=0;b<10;b=b+10)it must be

Code: [Select]

for (var b=0;b<800;b=b+100)
but in anyway thanks

i`ve got another trouble. Trees appears on the foreground, i need them in the back.
i try GetLayer and AddEntity methods, but it doesn`t work

Code: [Select]

for (var b=0;b<800;b=b+50)
{
var tree = Scene.GetLayer("flora").AddEntity("tr");
tree.SetSprite("gfx\tree1.png");
tree.X = b; tree.Y = 340;
}

This command:

Code: WME Script

1. Scene.GetLayer("flora").AddEntity("tr")

must give you a syntax error, you are only allowed one level of Object.Function

What I believe you should do is get the layer and then use the Layer method InsertEntity(Index, EntityName)

Code: WME Script

1. var sceneLayer = Scene.GetLayer("flora");
2. var tree = sceneLayer.InsertEntity(indexValue, "tr");
3.  

And play with indexValue to find the position right in front of the background and before all other objects. I think the value 1 will work.

I have finished my trees generator,
can someone check out?

Code: [Select]


///////////////////////// trees initialisation
for (var b=0;b<800;b=b+50)
{
var tree_frequency =  Random(1,4);
if (tree_frequency == 3) // trees far
{
var flora = Scene.GetLayer("flora");
var tree_f = flora.AddEntity(2, "tr_f");
var chose_tree_f = Random(1,2);
if (chose_tree_f == 1) tree_f.SetSprite("gfx\tree1_f.sprite");
if (chose_tree_f == 2) tree_f.SetSprite("gfx\tree2_f.sprite");
tree_f.X = b; tree_f.Y = 450; tree_f.Scale = 100; tree_f.Interactive = false;
}
if (tree_frequency == 4) // trees near
{
var main = Scene.GetLayer("main");
var tree_n = main.AddEntity(2, "tr_n");
var chose_tree_n = Random(1,2);
if (chose_tree_n == 1) tree_n.SetSprite("gfx\tree1_n.sprite");
if (chose_tree_n == 2) tree_n.SetSprite("gfx\tree2_n.sprite");
tree_n.X = b; tree_n.Y = 450; tree_n.Scale = 100; tree_n.Interactive = false;
}
}

Replace "AddEntity" with "InsertEntity".

[Krosad]

What is the difference?
