What's wrong with using Thing_Move?

[Graf Zahl]

2 things:

-it can only move to a different map spot, not by offset
-it spawns teleport fog which often isn't wanted.

well this like this arnt possible with the other ways like thing_move

creat a thing that moves in decorat and put this in ACS

1st make a thing in decorate that move around another thing like the Afrit in monster resource wad

then you could do something like this in acs

Code: Select all

script 1 open
 {
  Thing_ChangeTID(0,Playernumber()+256);
   int playerX = getactorx(256);
   int playerY = getactory(256);
   setactorx(1,playerX);
   setactory(1,playerY);
  }

this would take that thing with the comits going around it and follow the player, now you have a comit circling the player

thing_move cant do this and if im correct that spawn hack would just make the comit stey in one place.

Isn't that supposed to be an Enter script? And what exactly is it supposed to do?

i wrote the code in about 30 sec, you cant expect me to get it right lol

And what exactly is it supposed to do?

it put a thing with tag 1 in the X Y position of the player
