 |
|
ok I made a world map where your speed is only two. so I put a npc with the script "worldenter" right outside the door of the entrance to the world map. the script looked like:
plotscript, worldenter, begin
set hero speed (me, 2)
end
very simple, but when I activated it. I disappered and my speed went up really high. What just happened,and how do i fix it? |

I would recommend using the map autorun script to set the speed, and then having doors leaving the world map be NPCs instead of doors. Having an NPC on a door sounds fishy to me - what does the computer try to do first, the NPC or the door?
As for the speed going up high, what do you mean? How could you know how fast you were if you disappeared? I'm wondering if this has something to do with the fact that, in custom, the third speed slot (probably labelled as '2', since 0 would be the first) is considered 10 for whatever reason. |

No, the plotscripting command takes pixels per step. Besides, the values in custom go 0, 1, 2, 10, 4, 5, so 2 is still the third and correct value.

Isn't a higher number slower?

What? No. Pixels per step. Higher is faster.

This sounds familiar. Ah yes, Fenrir had a disappearing heroes bug which I could never reproduce.
This appears to be a bug in the engine. Can you reproduce this? Does it happen every time?
Could you file a bug on 'Bugzilla' and upload your game (and scripts and a nearby save file if required), or alternatively, email those things to me?

In my experience, doors trigger first in an NPC vs. door situation.
I have a "make stair-stepping sounds" script activated by some step-on NPCs in Okédoké, and I put the NPCs on the stairs where the door is--the stepping sound doesn't actually play until the next map is already fading in. |

in resident evil infinity, i used a step on npc to trigger the radio cutscene, and it is on the door of the map you came from. It goes through the door and then runs the script
