There is something to think about when you use the .width or .height properties of the npc, is that it is disabled by default(its autoscale), why would I use: .width=64 and the npc not change?
1.1) Or in this case, this script only works if I run it from npc(with autoscale enabled):
Code: Select all
for v(i)=1 to 8
v(k)=32+int(rnd*3)*32
v(a)=ncreate(38,sysval(player1scrx)+rnd*800,sysval(player1scry)+32+rnd*64,0,0,0,0)
v(a)=getid(v(a))
npc(v(a)).width=v(k)
npc(v(a)).height=v(k)
npc(v(a)).x-=npc(v(a)).width/2
next1.2) This may seem silly but: could normal npc(size=100%) have autoscale check enabled by default?
Every time I switch npc it is disabled.
2)
I have tested on my own what the .stimer property does and this property does only a decrement(.stimer-= 1) at the end of the npc script when it is positive.
Does it only do that? or is there an side effect that i don't see(and what could I do wrong), because we could do it ourselves with 'if .stimer>0 then .stimer=.stimer-1', that's suspicious.
3)
Something curious in visual basic 6.0 when you have selected an item from a list (or listbox) and press a letter key, the focus goes to the items that start with that letter, but the list of scripts in your smbx doesn't can do it.
