How could I make a leash effect in DM?[Solved]

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 23:40:28 +0000

Example : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=we5LawDUcCM&t=0m47s

I already have the aiming down, But I want to know I could have a line that connects two targets together and rotates as they move. [Yes with pixel movement].

Some clicks not registering? [Demo Provided] [Solved]

Sat, 04 Feb 2012 19:27:06 +0000

Code:

atom
    Click(turf/l,c,p)
        world<<"Click() is being called"
        var/list/L=params2list(p)
        if(L["right"])RightClick(l,c,p)
    RightClick(l,c,p)
        world<<"RightClick() called!"
        if(usr.can_move)return//If your not in the middle of a shield bash
        flickOn('effects.dmi',"target",-17,-17)//Creates that little target effect
        walk_towards(usr,l)
        usr.resetAttack()//Cancels the attack

As you right click to move around does anyone else feel like some clicks don't register. I do have MouseEntered running as well if that causes some weird lag that I should know about. It seems to be most prevalent when your already, and the screen is moving

P.S. I know that you can shield bash into the void.

Byond and rotational attacks

Fri, 03 Feb 2012 06:45:57 +0000

Problem description:
I have an aimer that is 224x224 that in-game has to have the ability to be fully-rotated all 360 degrees. The problem is DM even lags when I attempt to open the .dmi and in game there's a huge lag spike when I load up the obj with the aimer icon. It is however pretty fine after that.

Can anyone think of any workarounds?

I have a bunch of unfinished sources...

Fri, 25 Jun 2010 23:26:56 +0000

Would it do harm or benefit the community to release all these sources? Most of them are misc. anime's and rpg's, and I really don't have any desire to finish any of them.

Icon question

Fri, 25 Jun 2010 00:38:03 +0000

var/icon/I=new('icon.dmi',"regular")
I.Crop(1,1,8,8)
f_copy(I,"States/regular.png")

The resulting file is still 32x32, is there anyway to make the file 8x8?

Get switch to behave like it does in C++

Wed, 23 Jun 2010 14:22:35 +0000

I have a situation where i need the switch statement to act like it does in C++ or java or most other languages.

This is what I want my switch to look like, but in dm. Is there any shorthand way?

var/value
switch(card_value)
 case 0:
   value+=1
   break
 case 1: case 2:
   value+=2
   break
 case 3: case 4: case 5: case 6:
   value+=3
   break

Unusal sized grid icons

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 21:23:17 +0000

I have an obj with 32x32 dmi icon. It has an underlay that is 41x39. When I show it on a grid sized 41x39, the grid shows the 32x32 version of the the underlay, and it shows the 32x32 icon fine. Even if i re-size the scale and make it bigger. It still shows the 32x32 version of the underlay. I also tried making the 32x32 icon an overlay, and the underlay to the main icon, but to no avail.

So my question is, How can i show multi-tiled icon in a grid? [besides the img tag, which can be done in my situation but i'd rather avoid that.]

...What?

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 04:35:45 +0000

This is less of a problem and more of a what-teh-...?

I've been experimenting with GRIDS and trying to give them a background color, when i discovered a weird glitch.
Code:

#define INF_TIME 3.402823466E+38
//I looked this up on google and that seems to be the largest value a float can have.

spawn(INF_TIME)underlays=list(icon('iconsLARGE.dmi',"background"))
src<<output(src,"skillbar1:1,1")

The underlay shows up correctly on the grid, while on the map the underlay never shows up.

the issue is, if i don't have the spawn, it shows the background and then it shows some sort of werid mini version of it. Is there anything wrong with what i'm doing?

EDIT:
INF_TIME can be any value, i just don't want the image to show up anytime soon.

EDIT THE SECOND:
The random picture that was mention, was not so random, is was the 32x32 version of the underlay.

EDIT THE THIRD:
Tested with /obj's [giving an obj an underlay]. Works the same way. setting an object as the underlay also works in the same manner. Overlays work in the same manner [execpt for the fact they overlap my icon like they're supposed too].

How to give a proc unlimited arguments.

Sun, 22 Nov 2009 00:14:02 +0000

If you don't know what i mean by unlimited arguments

addtext proc
        See also: 
                + operator 
        Format: 
                addtext(Arg1,Arg2,...) 
        Returns: 
                A text string with the arguments concatenated. 
        Args: 
                Any number of text strings.

This code would work like this

var/t=addtext("Hello"," ","World","!")

Now I'm building a proc Sum so that it can be called like this.

var/n=Sum(1,2,3,4,5,6)

So i went to code this and this compiles fine, but i don't erh, know how to finish it...

proc/Sum(A,B,...)
    //...?
