Sry for my bad eng!

[N00b]

can you give me a code example?

[link]

you should try and make it happen your self. that is the best way to learn. look at other lua codes that use this missle firing or any other projectiles and learn off of that.

I have tryed many diffrent ways of doing this but I havent succseed. Thats why im asking for help on this forum!

i cant find any game using that type of missile function got any tips about any?

[KawaGeo]

How about the idea...

You first write a code the best you can. Show it here on this thread. We can take a look at it what is missing or wrong. We'll try to suggest some corrections. This way we all can help you while you are learning, Ok?

PS Don't mind your English. Most of us aren't that good in English, anyway.

The Controller has two types of actions triggered. Button Down. and Button up.

Button down is triggered each time the loop goes through and checks for commans. So as long as you have button down. Each time it loops it will trigger a ButtonDown event placed in your code. To fix this. Refer to this forum http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=4458

Or create yourself a button inhibitor. Please note that if you do choose to use the code posted on the forum that you must adhere to my request. (That mention my name somewhere in the source code.)

[N00b]

this is one om my codes

[romero126]

The function.

if pad:r() then
missile(xm,ym,z)
xm=xm+5
end


Will be called every time it loops through IE Multiple button presses.

Please refer to what I posted earlier.

pad:r() is called every time the button is down during the check. So multiple events of it will be called each time that value returns true..

So in a loop pad:r() is triggered each time the loop you created. A loop is approx 0.005 MS depending on you code it varies from .0005 to .5ms. Which means you must make an inhibitor (ie a stop variable) so that value event isnt triggered every time it loops through.

Thinking logically helps alot while LUA Programming.

[N00b]

But how can i make it so it go all the way on the screen!?

[romero126]

think about it

[LordCthulu]

Sorry if this is off-topic, but is there an easy way to get multiple animations to loop at the same time?
Like lets say I want grass "swaying" in the wind, and also want my character on screen to move.

[romero126]

[mrn]

regarding multiple animations..
if i am not wrong, there is a routine called bench in the "Tools" directory of the LuaOS, which throws bubbles into the air. 50-60 bubbles at the same time.
another source of the same thing could be the page of the twin-tail guy, ema.

[N00b]

[romero126]

if missilefiring then
--do animation
end

[N00b]

okay lets try this again

[KawaGeo]

Ok, Mr. Noob

Two errors are found:

1) All letters in Lua are case sensitive. That means, u = 0 and U = 0 are different.

2) Every if statement must end with "end" word.

Make those corrections and try.

Keep up going and you'd be fine.

PS: Use [ code] and [/code] for all codes.

PSS: You, other guys, don't crack a smile.
