[VX] New 8 way Movement

[bojjenclon]

Now when I start it I go upper-right automatically, and my menu cursor starts at Shutdown and moves to New Game by itself. O_o

Hey near i saw ur script and i saw the option for dashing, how o we use this option?
like where do i put the dashing sprite?

Alright, this is the layout of a regular spritesheet:

[o][o][o][o]
[o][o][o][o]

(only smaller)

And this is the layout for 8 direction+dash spritesheets:

Just 8 directions:

[4][8][4][8]
[4][8][4][8]
(4 = vertical+horizontal; 8 = diagonals)

Just dash:

[sprite1][sprite2][sprite1dash][sprite2dash]
[sprite3][sprite4][sprite3dash][sprite4dash]

Dash + 8 directions:

[sprite1(4)][sprite1(8)][sprite1(4)dash][sprite1(8)dash]
[sprite1(4)][sprite1(8)][sprite1(4)dash][sprite1(8)dash]

I'll add the example spritesheet with dash in a few minutes.

Near did you see my error?

 

[Ulqiorra]

What other scripts do you have in your game????
(If you start standing upper-right, search your script editor for 'direction = 9')

 

[bojjenclon]

Ok its fixed. Hey, think you can have a way where when you turn left or right its more of a 45 degree rotation instead of Left or Right?

 

[Ulqiorra]

use move route:
Set move route(character, repeat, ignore):
Script: turn_45_left
Script: turn_45_right

 

[bojjenclon]

Yeah... That doesn't work so well for me. Gives me an undefined variable error.

 

[Ulqiorra]

Sorry, it's ' turn_left_45 '!

 

[bojjenclon]

Think you could implement something where if the player taps a direction he faces it and if he holds a direction he moves? It would make it a little easier for me. Other than that, I love your script!

Edit: just realized that script snippet makes the player face left with at a 45 degree angle. I meant something that rotates you. Like imagine you're standing in place, and you tap left one and go 45 degrees, than again, and after a few times you've done a 360.

 

[EpE]

lol you are a death note character doing scripts but why?

 

[Ulqiorra]

@epe: Yes, I am Near. And you spam my thread, but why?

@boj: ' turn_left_45 ' rotates you to left 45 degrees. You will have done a 360 after using it multiple times.

 

[bojjenclon]

Works a little weird. IDK Its kinda hard to implement something like that with the way RMXP uses its buttons.

 

[Zero2009]

Umm... yeah dude i saw your post answering my question, but im still confused... where is that sprite sheet u were going to post?

 

[Ulqiorra]

Posting right now...

 

[Zero2009]

Ohhh... now i understand!
well i'll try it. Just one more question...
does this work with trailing party members?

 

[Ulqiorra]

Not yet, I'm workin' on it! Probably will within a couple weeks.

 

[bojjenclon]

Think you could make a True False setting that changes your movement? If you can imagine one of those scripts that make you have Resident Evil style movement (Walk forward, back up, turn instead of facing the direction) but with 45 degree turn instead of 90.

 

[Ulqiorra]

Oh, Axial Movement?

 

[bojjenclon]

After looking up the definition of that... yes!
