AOE ( Area of Event )

[Sir Hiro]

:please:
Hello All,
I am making a game that uses just one map. Yes I know it's stupid because it will lead to serious lag, but I have to or else one of my scripts won't work ( Tricksters Time System only works for the starting map for me, if you go to another it turns itself off ). So since I have this problem, I need a script that...

~ When the player is within a certian # of Squares the event is active ( the player is 11 squares away, the event isn't there, but gets 10 squares away and it appears )
~ When the player get far away ( lets say he goes 10 squares away, the event stops, or erases )
~ I don't want it to go away permentantly if you go out of range

Thanks for reading this

Hope someone can fill my request!

Hmm, Post your setup for my script, and all of the other scripts you are using.

You sure you have the latest version of it?

Spoiler: Time Script

==============================================================================
 ●● Time System
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Trickster (tricksterguy@hotmail.com) (based on Deke's Version)
 Version 2.0
 Date 3/22/07
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction:
-------------
 And who said I only create scripts for battle systems, yeah that's right 
 This is a map system. This allows your game to have time. 
 Also includes a simple Day Night System. And Also you can setup events 
 that happen at a certain time (ex. at 0 to 6 minutes past each hour, or on 
 Tuesday March 20, 2007 at 3:00 PM to 4:00 the same day and year), 
 This script wasn't meant to be an exact copy of our calendar as it is not 
 accurate
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Features:
---------
  * Simple
  * Can Set Time to a certain hour, minute, month, day, year
  * Can Speed up or slow down time
  * Can Disable Tinting
  * Tinting is disabled on inside maps
  * Can Setup Initial time
  * Can redefine the time system
  * Includes a Time HUD
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Insrutctions:
-------------
  - If your map is in the inside of something add an [I] to its name so the
  Day Night toning is disabled
  - If you want to disable day night toning completely do this in a call script
  $game_time.tone_enabled = false and that will disable it
  - To Change the time just call $game_time.(value) = time replace (value) with
  either minute, hour, day, month or year and time is the new time
  - To Move Time forword just call $game_time.(value) += time replace (value)
  with either minute, hour, day, month, or year and time is the time to move 
  forward by
  
To Setup A Event's Time Condition:
----------------------------------
  - Use an Event Comment that says Time_Setup
  - To set the minutes the event is to happen type
      start_minute (minute)
      end_minute (minute)
    and that setups the event to happen starting at start_minute and ending at
    end_minute.
  - To set the other parameters (hours, days, months, and years) follow the 
    above but use start_hour and end_hour for hours, start_day and end_day for
    days, start_month and end_month for months, and start_year and end_year for
    years.
  - There are also two other parameters on_day and on_month which checks if it
    is on a day.

I also use the Addons MACL, MapInfo Script, and Time HUD Addon.
Even in you're demo, when I talk to the girl and she says, "Wanna go inside?" I say yes and everything turns light, and the toning stops, but the time continues. THen I go back out and the tone goes back to what time it is.

i have had a problem similar to this, also try creating a new project, and copying all your projects files into it......sometimes the project data gets messed up...

 

[Trickster]

You probably missed this

  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Tone Disabled Maps
  #   - syntax map_id => disabled flag true: disabled false: enabled
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Tone_Disabled = {2 => true}

 

[Sir Hiro]

Lol, now I feel stupid, I never understood what it did, but since you pointed it out I tried changing the numbers and nothing happened.. so then I left it 2 but changed true to false and now it works for diffrent maps. It would still be nice for the AOE, but I don't HAVE to have it anymore.

Thanks for you're help.

 

[Trickster]

Ok what that option does is disable the day/night toning for certain maps (like if you have a map that is inside a building you wouldn't want the tones to occur in there :p)

Well if you need anymore help just post in the topic

This topic has been resolved. If Sir Hiro or any other users have any questions or further problems regarding this topic, please create a new thread about them.

Thank you!
