Internal commands

[ToasterApocalypse]

Lets talk about tilecol, platv and everything else found in the level file that you can't edit in VVVVVV.

Ok guys?

I'll start: List all the tilesets you can't get without Direct Mode, like tilecol=6 with warpzone tileset.

That isn't internal scripting, is it? Create a new thread for it... or use this thread.

I don't know if this is the right place for this or not, but FIQ discovered that the number of trinkets collected is a 32-bit number and it wraps around back to 0 after giving a trinket while having 2³²-1=1111...1111 (32 1's) in binary. This means that having -1 trinkets (you can set that by editing the .vvvvvv file) is the same as having 2³²-1 trinkets! That makes the word "lots" make more sense, but the wrapping is weird.

Ok, I'll do that.

  MORE HELP REQUESTED 

I have these scripts.

Code: [Select]

ifflag(33,IDY)
ifflag(34,IDN)
IDN:

Code: [Select]

say(-1)
text(1,0,0,4)
[ INTERNAL GIBBERISH ]
And there is no IDY at the moment.

What's supposed to happen is:
I enter the room (flag34 on beforehand)
Activate script 1.
Script 1 activates IDN.
Internal stuff plays.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:
I enter the room (flag34 beforehand)
Activate script 1.
NO dialogue, just cutscene bars.
Viridian can move.

WHAT DO I DO

EDIT: I think I know.

I think it's because of the capitals.

[Dav999]

Yes, using capital letters is the problem. (if you knew that, why did you post it here? )

EDIT: Oh, now I see, that was an edit.

Because I figured it out after it was posted. It was +1 post for me! I can't delete my own post!

oh and
I'm getting near my 500th aren't I

OT: The reason I'm posting this stuff is for a reason. Here's a hint: 2

[Dav999]

That was four seconds after I saved my edit!

[Pyrite]

Dav why are you posting. Stop. This thread has 26 pages.

[Dav999]

Dav why are you posting. Stop. This thread has 26 pages.

I'm not the only one posting here. And it's not like somebody will have to carry this topic in the form of a heavy book, with one post on each page.

SORRY DAV I COULDN'T HEAR YOU

I WAS JUST CARRYING THIS BIG BOOK OF INTERNAL COMMANDS. IT HAS LIKE 300 PAGES.

I think it would be more convenient if the lists (play commands, gamestates, entities, etc.) were in the first post so that people can find them.

I wanted to use moveplayer(x,y), but it doesn't seem to work when I use A)Say A level I want to make really depends on it working that way, I just can't do it in the say(-1) way.

Use walk(x,y) I always do.

In case you don't know, walk makes walk a certain amount of pixels while move teleports a certain amount of pixels relative to its position. It's different.

Oh. I thought it was the same thing.

Sounds really odd. I'm speechless to be honest, but I knew there was a possibility of something like this as the fact that the weird method of doing internal scripting works at all is odd. I can try to look how moveplayer() really works (internally) for any clue, but have you considered using gotoposition() instead?

gotoposition() occasionally doesn't work properly unless it's right after a gotoroom() command.

Unless you use the third parameter. Dav999 told this but I was slow to realize :p
