Internal commands

[Dav999]

Anybody knows how to use createcrewman(x,y,colour,mood,direction)?
Please. I need your help 

Assuming you know how to use internal scripting (I don't know if you do, but there's an explanation at the end of the second post in this thread):

x,y = position.
colour = cyan, red, yellow, green, blue or purple
mood = 0 for happy, 1 for sad
direction = faceleft or faceright (or faceplayer to automatically face Viridian, and you can even use followplayer to follow Viridian)

So for example:

createcrewman(50,60,red,0,faceright)
createcrewman(120,67,blue,1,faceplayer)

Hope that helps

Anything that isn't cyan,red,purple,blue,yellow and green is gray

I have a bit of a bug with my internal scripting. I inserted the Gravitron into my level (it worked fine), but when it finished,  started zipping around the screen. If I flipped, the script to remove the wraparound (gamestate 200 - finalmode) started and I started zipping from screen to screen at about 3 frames a screen. (I'm not entirely sure, but it looped round the entire 20x20 map ignoring walls (which also had corrupted fragments of Back to VVVVVV's map in it), so there wasn't anything I could do - I couldn't move since I was in a script.) Pressing enter took me to the level editor menu (I was in testing mode when I pressed enter (with the "Uh oh..." from  still on the screen). When I went back into the level, all scripts (might only be internal, I have no idea since all my scripts contain proper internal commands) caused  's controls to lock in place - even going back out to the main menu didn't fix it.
I attached a copy if you want to see.

Yeah, that's a known problem, it's called the Gravitron fling. I think it has something to do with the bottom gravity line of the Gravitron (you know, the way Viridian zips through a lot of rooms, that's supposed to happen to the bottom gravity line after 60 seconds (but much slower of course))

[FIQ]

You must place the bottom gravity line precisely, or VVVVVV will screw up once the gravitron runs out of time. Even if you do place it correctly, a few edge cases still causes flinging, which can be seen in some of the player levels with gravitrons which aren't inserted 100% correctly.

Thanks for your help.

Also, is it possible to have the animated tiles seen in the second half of The Final Level in the editor?
(By "animated tiles", I mean make them animate via a script or whatever else is necessary (unless it's built into gamestate 200 and I'm doing it wrong...))

I think there is, you just need Direct Mode in 2.1 for it:

I found something interesting.
In the Space Station tileset, tile 740 animates when finalstretch mode is on!

Yes There is actaully.

Try looking at some tiles in Direct mode

Why would you answer it again?

No.
Well yes in theory, but not in practice. You cannot use gamestate 200 for it.

So, how DO you do it?

[blue626]

If you happen to have version 2.0., then you don't have direct mode and what Dav999 said doesn't help here. Can't help you more.

In fact, I'm confused...

(insert quotes here)

 

I do have 2.1, but it still doesn't work (I'm fine with no changing colo(u)r, I just want the tiles to animate).

Off-topic a bit: Yeah, I'm sort of confused too - what Dav999 and FIQ said are completely different - who's right? 

[allison]

It might be possible to use gotoroom(x,y) with nearly identical rooms to make the tiles animate. If you had a WHOLE BUNCH OF ROOMS you could even emulate the color changing!
