Can someone just tell me which colour represents which priority number.

[Joey]

it should say in paint. when you click on a color, a number should come up not too far away, i forget where. but it will say there. i think its next to P. i dont remember.

[Kon-Tiki]

For priorities:
Black = Unwalkable
Darkblue = Unwalkable, but can be turned off.
Darkgreen = Sets/resets Flag 3
Cyan = Sets/resets Flag 0

[Joel]

The priority colors correspond directly in number to the colors in the color palette. Starting with black as 0, if you can't find the display that tells you which color goes with which priority (it is, in fact, next to the P in PicEdit -- and the Visual AGI Picture Editor tells you beside the color when you select it), you could always count the colors to find out which color goes with which priority.

I want to let ego when he turns on a computer be able to view a number of files with info.

[Zagrijs]

Thanks for the tutorials

There aren't much on scripting. I got a tutorial on items and doors and the basic structure of a room but not much more. Most of the others weren't complete and didn't tell me much.

The best way is to download source code and have a look at it.  You can get the code for Voodoo Girl:  Queen of the Darned from www.voodoogirl.cjb.net.  This includes the actual game, graphics, sound, etc.

I'm sure there are other examples out there, as well.  Everyone who posts on this board is intelligent and helpful.  Ask for code to look at, or where to find tutorial *code*, and you will probably receive.

BTW, if you have any difficulty deciphering my code (it's not the most well-written, although some of it is clever ), you can message me through this site or my website or e-mail (failrate <at> hotmail <dot> com)

Do I have to download source code or can I look at the code through Agistudio.

Look for learning not changing

Okay how can I let a character sit?

I think I should first draw a view of ego sitting.

Then if ego is in the right position and enters sit. I want to hide the view of ego standing and display the view of ego sitting in the right position.

Basically how do I hide a view of ego and load another view of ego

[Kon-Tiki]

Code: [Select]

load.view(1);
set.view(ego,1);
This's where 1 is the sitting view. Off course, you'll have to turn off walking around too, but leave parsing in, or he'll be walking like a freak

[Zagrijs]

Thanks I don't understand the position.How do I get ego position right.

[Kon-Tiki]

Hmmm... I'll have a look at the sourcecode of Little Pirate. Ego's doing the exact same thing there.

Code: [Select]

if (said("sit","rol")) {
  if (posn(o0,84,73,102,93)) {
    if (!isset(f100)) {
      print("You sit down.");
      erase(o0);
      set.loop(o2,1);
      end.of.loop(o2,f100);
    }
    else {
      print("You try to sit down twice, but just hurt yourself. You're not "
            "bendable enough.");
    }
  }
  else {
    print("Your tuchy's not THAT big.");
  }
}
if (isset(f100)) {
  stop.cycling(o2);
}
And man, is it weird seeing that old code again.

if (said("examine","a","sink")) {
  print("Dirty dishes are everywhere.");
}
What the hell's that "a", doing there?

What I don't understand is how the posn(84,73,102,93)
works.
How do you know what do make it.
