Conveyor Belts?

[GhostHost]

I'm not sure what would be required to make a conveyor belt floor, mabye scripts or mabye just events. If anyone has any idea how to make one please post. Thanks :smile:

First, is this for XP or VX?

This would probably be possible via eventing. I would imagine you use terrain tags (XP) or check coordinates (VX). In a Conditional Branch Common Event, you would check if the player is pressing a directional key. If so, use another Conditional Branch to check the direction, and adjust speed values. If the player isn't pressing a key, set Direction Fix ON and move the player along the conveyor belt. It's a complicated process, but I'm sure it could be done.

If you'd like more details, just ask.

I tried that and I think it will work but how do I use terrain tags and say the player wasn't pressing anything, they start walking the conveyor direction but they can't move

Do something along these lines I presume:

Put anything else you desire within the other parts of the branches (when he presses a key or whatever).

hmmm....to do conveyor belts where you'll actually slow down or go backwards if you walk against the direction or stand still you'd probably need a script...

Not necessarily-- Events can change your speed with Change Move Route.  It'd be kinda awkward, though.
