A_JumpIf Crouched?

[TheGameratorT]

I wonder if it's possible to make a JumpIf if the player is crouching.

[gwHero]

Yes it is:

Code: Select all

TNT1 A 0 A_JumpIf(GetPlayerInput(INPUT_BUTTONS) & BT_CROUCH, "Crouching");

[Matt]

Or A_JumpIf(height<40,"Crouching")
(There's a more complicated alternative that directly accesses the player's status but I don't remember it off the top of my head)

Checking for player input won't catch those few people who use toggle-crouch.

I indeed never used toggle crouch. Yes, your solution should also work, but I guess you mean the ViewHeight?

[Matt]

I mean height. After all, making your hitbox smaller to avoid incoming fire or to get under map geometry is the main point of crouching.

EDIT: And of course that 40 could be higher or lower depending on whether you want this to kick in sooner or later.

getcrouchfactor() < 1.0 ?

[TheGameratorT]

The crouching works very well, the A_JumpIf(height<40, "Crouching") Thx

Also on ZScript is there any way to check actor velocity all the time and if the value is 1 to jump to another state?
Because vel.x>1 and vel.y>1 sometimes fail because it needs to go in certain directions.

[Arctangent]

In ZScript, vel is a vector. This means you can call its Length() function to get the non-directional speed an actor is moving at, rather than calculating that yourself through the distance formula.

[TheGameratorT]

Could you explain me how to do that please?

Also could you explain why this doesn't work:

Code: Select all

BNNY A 1 { bNoTarget = true; }

?

[Caligari87]

Code: Select all

if(vel.length() > 1)

[TheGameratorT]

Code: Select all

		BonnieStand:
			BNNY A 1
			{
				if(vel.length() > 1)
				{
					Goto BonnieWalk;
				}
			}
			Loop;
		BonnieWalk:
			BONY ABCDE 1;
			TNT1 A 0 A_PlaySound("pstepm",0,1.0);
			BONY FGHIJKLMNOPQ 1;
			TNT1 A 0 A_PlaySound("pstepm",0,1.0);
			BONY RSTUVWXY 1;
			Loop;

How can I do something like this for example?

(Sorry for being annoying but I'm really new with this )

[gwHero]

To be honest, it can be a bit confusing in the beginning, because of the old "Decorate" syntax and the new ZScript possibilities, which can be combined.
You can achieve this in several ways.

Example 1 (more classic way):

Code: Select all

    BonnieStand:
         BNNY A 1 A_JumpIf(vel.length() > 1, "BonnieWalk");
         Loop;
    BonnieWalk:
   etc...

Example 2(inline Zscript code):

Code: Select all

      BonnieStand:
         BNNY A 1
         {
          if(vel.length() > 1)
				return ResolveState("BonnieWalk"); 
			else
				return ResolveState(null); // nojump
         }
         Loop;
    BonnieWalk:
   etc...
