Prexus Mouse engine.

[Branden]

Hello everyone in the awesome community of rmxp.org. I was just wondering if someone could make me an addon for prexus' ABS(Not the one from Umbral Wake, but the one from dungeon adventure)that will enable me to move with the click of a button.

What I want is when you singal click your character faces that direction the cursor was, but when you double click your character moves in the direction of the cursor. So it's left click to to move only when an enemy isn't highlighted with the cursor, but when an enemy is highlighted with the cursor the cursors icon changes, but if you highlight an enemy from a distance and click you move over to him and attack. So there is an icon for moving, attacking, talking, and enviromental interactions. And I would also like it so the middle mouse button takes you to the menu.(Can whoever does this make the mouse module compatable with LeonHearts universal customizable menu?)And also to use a skill you have to right click.(When you're in the skill menu right click on a skill to assighn it to the mouse button and you could also assighn other skills to th S and D keys still.) The reason I want skills to be assighnable with the keys still is because the skills on the S and D keys are reserve skills that you click on the HUD and the skill you click on will automatically be assighned to the right mouse button putting the skill that was previously assighned to that other skills place on the HUD.

And thats all until I could think of something else. Thanks to whoever could help me, I will worship you.

*EDIT* Sorry for naming the topic Pexus mouse engine.

You can rename the topic if you want 

Also, I don't think this should be ALL that tough, it will just mean a little bit of editing on the path finding script.

I'm on it! 

EDIT: Just so that you know, I'm not that great a scripter.

So what I CAN do is:
a) Making the character face/move to the location the mouse is clicked on, depending on the number of clicks, showing the icons when an enemy is selected.
b) Allowing the choices when the icon is selected and doing the appropriate chosen thing.
c) Allowing the Right-Clicking button to use the assigned skill.

What I cannot do is:
a) Making the skill assigning system work with a mouse click.

EDIT 2: You want the choices on choosing an enemy to show as icons, right? So will these icons be pictures, or real icons put in the icon folder? Currently I'm taking the icons as the ones in the icon folder and proceeding, but if you want it changed, just tell me.

Thats perfect, thanks man. You're a good friend.

You're welcome, it's the least I can do. =)

Hey, you want me to PM you the link, or post it here?

 

[Branden]

Post it here, please.

On a second thought, this isn't all that easy. You'll have to give me while.

Also, get happy, I've finished it!. (If I could show screens, I would have, but what can I do with a mouse).

EDIT: Ok, I've got a Demo up, but I couldn't integrate the mouse system into Prexus' ABS, so I got it into another, completely customizable ABS.

Current Features

-Character moves to location that is clicked
-When in front of the enemy, if you double click, the character attacks the enemy.
-Middle Mouse button to open the menu.
-Right-Click Mouse button to use the assigned skill.
[To assign a skill, open the skill menu, and simple select the skill from there (enter/space bar button) and you're done. The assigned skill will appear "Red" in color.]

PS: The ABS is completely customizable, and the instructions have been provided. You can do cool stuff like adding ranged/shot/melee skills, etc, which can be Heat-Seeking (chase after the enemy) and lots more! You'll have to see the instructions to see what it can do! And to set up an enemy, just up "\m[Monster ID] \w[Weapon ID]" in the event's name. (Yeah, that's right! You can even make enemies hold weapons!)

PPS: The mouse controls everything as well, so you can even use the menu, scroll the options, and click by using the mouse.



DOWNLOAD IT NOW!!

If you need anything added or removed, just tell me. Hope you like it!

Thanks, and to be honest, I prefer this ABS over prexuses ABS. (Sorry Prexus :-[)

Heh, it's probably the most customizable ABS around, and that's why I used it for the experiment. Prexus' ABS was giving too may errors >_>

Anyway, I hope it works properly, what do you think of the mouse system.

 

[Branden]

Let's BUMP it up!]

Oh, and the mouse system is awesome!! No script errors or anything.

 

[ChaosMaxima]

Whatcha bumpin' for?

I gave you what you wanted, right? :D

 

[Branden]

I'm bumping 'cause it isn't done yet, you said it was 25% complete.

Offtopic: Is it apart of rmxp.org's new theme to have animated snowfall on the screen? Or is it the theme for my desktop?

Uh... I thought I got all the features into that...? *goes to edit the post to remove the 25% done thing*

So, what other features do you want?

 

[Branden]

Well, you don't have to do this 'cuase I don't want to make you feel like you absolutley have to do this. But if you want to there was acouple of problems ranged attacks don't work (Ranged weapons only work as if they were sword, but ranges for skills work fine.), and mouse icons don't change for for monsters. But remember I'm not trying to pressure you into doing this.

 

[ChaosMaxima]

Woops. I totally forgot about this topic o.o'

Anyway, I'll get to work on this right away.
