Issue with changing block's properties in 1.4.5.

[Eri7]

Hello, I have issues with the manipulation of block's properties through scripts. In 1.4.5, it seems I can no longer change the properties of blocks through scripts, something that worked fine in 1.4.4 which makes some of my scripts not functional. Here is an example, this here would no longer work in 1.4.5 (the butterfly colliding with the block and changing the block's .exty value).
On smbx 1.4.4.

On smbx 1.4.5.

If someone knows a workaround, please tell me or else, I hope 38A fixes this in the next patch.

Edit:
It also appears the same issues persists with bgos, not only blocks.

Why don't you use an NPC as a block?
So you use the Iterators, to find out if the Butterfly collides with this "NPC Block".

Yeah this solution came to mind, I will try that especially that now we can make npcs not despawn, I am just having other issues currently by not being able to edit these objects properties like for example, I want to make all of these red X blocks transperant while testing but .forecolor doesnt work with blocks anymore (like all the other functions).

You need to select a block, and have them activate the script, behind the "On Screen" event.
Using this type of script:

Code: Select all

with block(sysval(param1))

if char(1).alive = 1
.forecolor = RGBA(0,0,0,0)
end

end with

There are things that were added in 1.4.5 that make all the difference, and they are all on Wiki.

Thank you so much! I wasn't aware this was changed.
