TeaScript Help Thread

[Yoshi021]

This is the thread where you ask questions regarding code you are making. It can be from errors that you can't solve in your code or asking about system values. Make sure when responding to a question, you quote the person you're helping that way people know who are being helped.

I've noticed that when I put either of these six lines of code in a script:

Code: Select all

NPC(sysval(param1)).Xsp=0
NPC(sysval(param1)).Ysp=0
Char(1).Xsp=0
Char(1).Ysp=0
Char(2).Xsp=0
Char(2).Ysp=0

It doesn't work perfectly, the NPCs still move a bit downwards if they're in the air and the players are still able to move (with reduced speed though).

I think in order to make an npc levitate and not fall you have to put like ~ .3 in the Yspeed.
If you want the players to stop moving, Go to Events -> Others -> Player Controls and lock the controls from there.
Remember that Xsp=0 Ysp=0 does not override the current speed, instead it adds to the current speed.

I'm trying to make a custom power-up but the NPC that Mario throws doesn't kill NPCs it hits...

What NPC are you using?

I'm trying to make a custom power-up but the NPC that Mario throws doesn't kill NPCs it hits...

What NPC are you using?

I'm using the NPC Mario throws with the Hammer Suit.
The script only affects the NPC's movement, it's moving fine but has no collision at all.

With npc(sysval(Param1))
.Ysp = 0
NKill(-1,1,1,16,8,0,1,1)
End with

It moved fine with just the .Ysp = 0, but since it wasn't hurting anything I added the only thing I could find on killing... also, for the 2nd and 3rd values I tried using .X and .Y but it got an error, same with the current one. I can't figure out some stuff in this help file...

That is weird, what are the exact modifications you want to do with the hammer, since it automatically kills enemies by default.

Just it's movement. It also doesn't collide with blocks even with npc texts.

That's not my problem...

[Yoshi021]

What? This is the Help Thread, on your problem, what movement modifications are you trying to do because hammers kill enemies by default.

[MarioKirby101]

It's moving exactly how I want it to, nut it's not hitting anything. It's supposed to move forward and kill enemies, but all it's doing is moving forward.

[MarioKirby101]

Here's the code I'm using...
If val(CurrentHighScore) > gval(HighScore) then
gval(HighScore) = val(CurrentHighScore)
End If
Seems like that would work but it doesn't change the high score global variable at all. Please help!

[Yoshi021]

I recreated what you said in this test level.

Code: Select all

if val(HighScore) < val(Score) then
val(HighScore) = val(Score)
end if

Did you make an event that runs the script whenever your minigame si finished?

[MarioKirby101]

Yes, my problem is that [yes, yours works] it doesn't seem to work with global variables. I need to set the value of an in level variable to that of a global variable so that it saves and crosses over to other levels.
Sorry for late response.

What is the measurement unit for the angular speed in LSpin(layerName, cx, cy, angularSpeed)?

Example, radians/sec

[andreepika1336]

How do I make the scripted npc to spawn these npcs but they are not in Spawned NPCs Layers?
