Coordinates error..

[Chaosg1]

In my script I have a part where it takes the enemy ands the player coordinates so that it can do some clacules, but It is giving me an error, nil:nilclass

@enemy = $game_map.events[@eventid]
@enemyx =  @enemy.x => gives me the error
@enemyy =  @enemy.y =>gives me a error too![code]

I don't know why it gives me a error i just want some help, so that i can try to finish my script.

BTW I know that the event ID is not nill....

Instead of $game_map.events[@eventid], use $game_map.events[@event_id].

 

[Chaosg1]

Why does it need to be $game_map.events[@event_id]? I simply wanna know, I have no clue.

 

[Daniel]

Well, if you are using the "Script..." event command on the map, the event's id is stored in a variable called @event_id.

 

[Nava]

it has to be in a space because like he said the variable is @event_id not without the underscore. the underscore serves some purpose i just kant think of what it is right now.....

 

[Chaosg1]

Still gives me the same error...

Try inspecting what @enemy is, before you call it out.

p @enemy

My best guess, is that you aren't using the correct event id, so it is pulling a nil object from $game_map.events

like

a = [4, 5, 7]
b = a[5]

a.x -> nil because there is no fifth element in your array

Just make sure your event id's numbers are correct.

What is @event_id equal to?

This is my script,

  def initialize
    @enemies = {}
    @springs = {}
    @itens = {}
    @pit={}
   @enemy_move_right = false
   @enemy_move_left = false
 end
 
 def update
    @playerx = $game_player.x if $game_player != nil
    @playery =  $game_player.y if $game_player != nil
    return
  end

I think it will be easier to u to see what I have done wrong...

 

[Nava]

@eventid = id i dont understand that it equals the id of what or maybe im just thinking wrong cuz i just woke up and my brain isnt quite functioning yet....

 

[Chaosg1]

Forget About this It's Fixed now, And Id is the event ID...
