I'm quite new to this, so, sorry if it sounds stupid, but is this the correct way to do this?Jarewill wrote: ↑Mon Dec 23, 2024 3:29 pm Zscript allows you to define normal variables and access them directly.
For example you can define a custom integer inside your actor like this:You can also specify a variable as a user variable by adding this prefix: user_Code: Select all
Class MyActor : Actor{ int myvar; //This is a custom integer variable Default{ //Custom variables go outside any blocks like Default{} } States{ Spawn: TNT1 A 1 A_JumpIf(myvar == 5, "VariableState"); //You can do custom jumps using variables like this Loop; VariableState: TNT1 A 0 {myvar = 0;} //And change them like so, any math function will work here Goto Spawn; } }
Doing so will allow you to set that variable in a map editor per thing basis.
ZScript also allows you to do other things with variables that Decorate can't do, such as define them inside weapons (however then you will have to access them with the invoker pointer within states (invoker.myvar)) as well as define them as custom properties, like so:Code: Select all
Class MyActor : Actor{ int myvar; property MyVariable : myvar; //This is how you define a property Default{ MyActor.MyVariable 5; //And then you can change it like any other } }
Code: Select all
Missile:
PAI2 C 5 A_FaceTarget;
PAI2 D 5 BRIGHT A_FaceTarget;
PAI2 E 5 BRIGHT A_FaceTarget;
PAI2 E 0 BRIGHT A_DualPainAttack;
PAI2 A 2 {user_miscount++;}
PAI2 A 0 A_JumpIf(user_miscount =< 3, "DiceRoll"); //to check if it should repeat the attack
PAI2 A 0 A_JumpIf(user_miscount == 3, "See"); //the cap to how many times it attacks in a row
Goto See;
Ok so I got a less stupid question this time now, is the syntax(?) here correct? I don't know what's the correct way of doing this.Jarewill wrote: ↑Mon Dec 23, 2024 3:29 pm Zscript allows you to define normal variables and access them directly.
