Very complicated script

[tjoudega]

Hello all

Ok, now i was thinking to make a sci-fi game, without random battles of any kind. What I'd rather like, is that the player can shoot bullets or at most lasers ( I think lasers are a bit unrealistic). The only problem with that is, that you can shoot in only 4 directions. It would be much more fun if the player could shoot in any direction, turning with the left and right button, walking with up and down, like in the first 2d GTA-games.

I was wondering whether this could be done with scripting or not. I realise it would be very, very hard. Maybe it could be 8 or 16 directions, so it would not take so much time to make the char set.

This was my question (I am dutch, so my english could be crap)

The 4th tab in the conditional Tab.

You would do if Up is pressed if true, check to see if the right button is pressed, if true, Set move event to Move Upper Right (Yep, it has all 8 directions there)

All you'd have to do is use turn 90 degrees (in the desired direction) then use move forward.

But there isn't one for 45 degrees. I forgot if the original poster or gorechild was asking for this

Would have been easier through scripts. but it's possible with Events but tedious.

It was the original poster who was asking for that.
