Technical forum / Strange Problem with duplicated variables
« on: July 17, 2010, 12:29:39 PM »
I´ve written some code that selects a trading card from a stack, the code looks like that:
var mycard = Random(1,10);
var foecard = Random(1,10);
if (foecard==1)
{
var fcardAT = 13;
var fcardDF = 11;
var fcardCO = 12;
var fcardINT = 9;
var fcardSP = 9;
var fcardST = 10;
var fsprite = "sprites\cards\card1.sprite";
}
if (foecard==2)
{
var fcardAT = 12;
var fcardDF = 6;
var fcardCO = 8;
var fcardINT = 9;
var fcardSP = 11;
var fcardST = 8;
var fsprite = "sprites\cards\card2.sprite";
}
if (foecard==3)
{
var fcardAT = 11;
var fcardDF = 13;
var fcardCO = 12;
var fcardINT = 10;
var fcardSP = 8;
var fcardST = 12;
var fsprite = "sprites\cards\card3.sprite";
}
(and so on)
So basically the variables for the card values should only be set according to the right card. However, I get these error messages:
13:07: Compiling script 'scenes\battlefield\scr\scene_init.script'...
13:07: Error@line 55: Duplicate declaration of variable 'fcardAT'
13:07: Compiling script 'scenes\battlefield\scr\scene_init.script'...
13:07: Error@line 56: Duplicate declaration of variable 'fcardDF'
13:07: Compiling script 'scenes\battlefield\scr\scene_init.script'...
Looks like the "if" is ignored and all variable sets are executed!
Anyone a clue?

Technical forum / Re: Screen resolution
« on: November 15, 2007, 08:50:00 AM »hmm, I am not to convinced. I tried Schach-Welten and it DOES look distorted.
You`re right on that one. But if you have Comic-styled look like in those LucasArts Games where everything did look distorted / twisted / bended somehow (DOTT), it really doesn`t matter.

If you make the game the Game in 1280*1024, it looks pretty good on all machines, even on a 1650*1080 Display. After a few Minutes of playing, the eye (mind) doesn`t even recognize the distorted aspect ratio. I know that it isn`t the perfect Solution for people having less than 1024 height pixels, but it`s a pretty good compromise.

No, but I already found a solution - "Remember Node State" is obviously deactivated by default. If activated, my scripts work fine.

It`s really strange.
I have the same thing with apples, picked from the ground and later destroyed to make apple slices. As long as I have the apples in my inventory, they do not respawn. When I destroy them in front of the respawn location, they do not respawn before I haven`t visited another scene. Same code used as with the bucket....
Edit:
With another object, where exactely the same coding approach was used, it works perfectly.

Technical forum / Strange Entity behaviour - respawning Entity?!
« on: November 12, 2007, 03:57:25 PM »
Hi all, working through our testers reports I found another very strange issue:
We have Entities representing Items, such as an empty bucket called "eimerstand" that becomes an Item "Eimerleer" when picked up. In the scene, where the bucket stands, it`s linked to the item and everything works fine.
Works great. I pick up the item, it dissapears in the scene, and the Item "Eimerleer" is in my inventory.
I can change to other scenes, come back, everything is fine - the empty bucket is still gone.
But now it becomes VERY strange:
When I destroy the bucket "Eimerleer" in my inventory, through creating another item out of it (filling it with wheat), the empty bucket in the scene respawns after I change the scene and return. Here`s the script located in the script of the wheat:
I also tried
During reading the boards, I´ve learnt that "DeleteItem" and "DeleteEntity" removes them permanently from the game. But whatever I do, the Entity always respawns in the original location after the destruction of the item representing it. (No matter if I drop or delete it)
Do I have some logical error inside I did not get?

Thank you very much - I already had the code snippet included, but I was dumb enough to write ("Actor") instead of (actor)

Yes I know, I`m bumping a thread, which is not appreciated on many boards - however, opening a thread without using the search function is the greater evil, and hereby I can prove that we indeed used it.
We have done some screens and puzzles for our game now, but we ran into the same problem - during usability tests the testers also mentioned that it is pretty annoying when the actor comes into the scene on the outer right, but the scene scrolls slowly (or fast, I know how to adjust the scrollspeed) from the outer left to the desired position. Is there any way to define the starting viewport on a 3000+ Pixel Scene without scrolling there?
