A simple code

I have a new code priblem. There seem to be no errors with this code when I check. Bt when I start upo the game It has one;

Code:

if player.x < x
{sprite_index = spr_bad_guy
hspeed = 5}
else
{sprite_index = spr_bad_guya
hspeed = -5}
if position_meeting[x+2,y,wall] or position_meeting[x-2,y,wall]
vspeed = -10

I know people are watching right now

*sneeze*

not whay I weanted

Have you tried this: (put in boss step event or wherever)

Code:


if distance_to_point(CHARACTOR.x,CHARACTOR.y) = PERFERED_DISTANCE
{PUT_ACTIONS HERE}


That's a lot less complex than my original but, the "action" part is difficult I can't get the character to follow him! Or go down without him moving but I still want it to pause.

Code:

if distance_to_point(object0.x,object0.y) = 11
{
 for (object0) x = boss.x
 for (object0) y = object0.y
 for (object0) vspeed = 20
 vspeed = 20
}

problem: ERROR at line 3 pos 15: assignment operater expected.

Try changing "for" to "with" ?

um...yes i agree

I agree as well. The for statement is a looping statement with different syntax as well as function. When using the "with" statement format it like this:

Code:

if distance_to_point(object0.x,object0.y) = 11
{
  with(object0)
  {
    x = boss.x
    y = object0.y
    vspeed = 20
  }
  vspeed = 20
}

Wow, thanks Vivi_IX. That actually worked!

good it worked
