Firstly, if i successfully get help with the below problem i will give a lifetime membership to arteria3d, plus model a character to the spec of the helper.

Requirements from me are, that help is given immediatally, as time is the esssence.

I have two problems with my scripts

The first problem, is that when the enemy takes damage, and falls to the floor, on respawning, it takes him a few seconds to re-attack the player, even if the player is close - here is the script:

;header

desc = Goblin3

;Triggers


:state=0:animate=2,state=1

:state=1,plrdistfurther=380:rotatetoplr,animate=1,state=1


:state=1,plrdistwithin=380:rotatetoplr,movefore=10,animate=2,movefore=10:state=1

:state=1,plrdistwithin=90:animate=95,setframe=95,state=5;attack

;attack


:state=5,framebeyond=95 16:plraddhealth=-9,state=8,sound=gamecore\guns\cartoonpack\punch\punch.wav
:state=5:incframe=95,rotatetoplr
:state=5,frameatend=95:state=8

:state=5,plrdistfurther=90:rotatetoplr,setframe=2,animate=2,state=1


:state=8:incframe=95
:state=8,frameatend=95:state=5
:state=8:setframe=2,animate=2,state=1






The second problem in the script below, is that when the player attacks the enemy and he falls to the floor, then to respawn, the enemy will start to play its idle animation, then repeat his fight animation, and then continue on his next path of action


;Triggers

;WALKING WAYPOINTS


:waypointstate=0:animate=2,waypointstart
:waypointstate=3:animate=2,waypointnext
:waypointstate=4:animate=2,waypointrandom
:waypointstate=5:animate=2,waypointreverse

;DETECT PLAYER
:state=0,plrdistwithin=900,plrcanbeseen:waypointstop,state=9,rotatetoplr,setframe=3

;DETECT DAMAGE
:shotdamage=1:waypointstop,state=9,rotatetoplr,setframe=3

;INTRO ANIMATION
:state=9:waypointstop,incframe=1
:state=9,frameatend=1:animate=1,state=1

;MELEE ATTACK 1

:state=1,plrdistfurther=70:waypointstop,rotatetoplr,movefore=2,animate=3
:state=1,plrdistwithin=70:waypointstop,rotatetoplr,setframe=94,state=7

:state=7,framebeyond=94 30,plrdistwithin=70:plraddhealth=-10,state=21,sound=gamecore\guns\cartoonpack\cartoonsword\steelsword.wav
:state=7:incframe=94,rotatetoplr
:state=7,frameatend=94:animate=1,state=9

:state=21:incframe=94,rotatetoplr
:state=21,frameatend=94:animate=1,state=9;this is the callback after the enemy dies to reset his aimation

I look forward to your replies

Thanks

should really have been in the scripts board you will get more answers there maybe a mod could move it for him.

Try to avoid putting comments at the end of a line of code. Not sure if it'll help, but if anything it's good practice.


Are your characters using custom animations?


The one and only,

there should be a number there

I haven't looked yet at your second script, but I looked at the first one. And there were ISSUES with it:

1. You have to pay attention to when things happen in your script. For example, in state=1 you are first checking for plrdistwithin=380, and then the next line is plrdistwithin=90. When the engine runs through the code, it is going to hit the first line (plrdistwithin=380) first, and execute that code. It will NEVER get to executing plrdistwithin=90 as 90 is within 380. These 2 lines need to be swapped so that 90 is first.

2. Although the engine won't tell you this, you really shouldn't have comments at the end of a line. Ply pointed this out, but it is not only good scripting. It makes it easier for you (or anyone else) to read the code.

3. Some of your code makes no sense as to why you have it that way. For example, the first line checks the state, and then sets animate=2, and then moves to state 1. Why? Just use ::animate=2. Then you don't have to worry about moving to state 1 right away, and the engine will always make sure that you are starting in animate=2.

4. Not necessarily an engine issue, but you really should increment your state numbers 1 at a time. Why do you go from state 1 to state 5 to state 8? Why not 0, 1, 2, etc.?

Here is what I came up with for your code for # 1. I expect to be paid handsomely in models for this.

Leon it's to late. He needed help with the scripts from his pack and i already helped. Sorry
