pdelay(x)

[moth ✨]

The only suggestion ever needed. You might be asking, what is Parallel Delay (pdelay in the command and for short)? That's what this thread is for. pdelay(x) functions like a delay. The "x" stands for the time. But here's where i gets different: Viridian can move and other scripts can trigger while pdelay is active, parallel processing. Example uses: Making a timer, an enemy spawner (ala Lighter Than Air), time based puzzles, escape scenes, etc.

even though gamestate ten exists this could be ideal for gravitrons.
Maybe ones that go longer or shorter than 60 seconds.

for real?

[moth ✨]

it doesnt exist YET, but...

[Lollipop]

how would you add it

[moth ✨]

probably convince terry, because pretty sure editing vvvvvv's code is illegal

[Ally 🌠]

Okay
So that will probably be easy, as I know a little bit of c++.

Terry, send me VVVVVV's source please.

It's not illegal to hexedit a program (unless a really restrictive EULA is at play). Distributing the modified executable is illegal. However, it'd still be fine to distribute a patch.

The big problem is that hexediting compiled code is insanely difficult.

Off-topic:This topic need to move to VVVVVV
On-topic:This command it quite useful for levels that you need to fast

If Terry let me make a patch I would add this

[LafondaSaysMeow]

I already have multiple great ideas for this on my own level... but it just isn't here yet...

I'll send this to terry

Didn't he already say why he wasn't inclined to add new features?

So whenever entering a room which has that entity inside?

By the way, adding commands would break compatibility with earlier versions.

I really TRULY don't understand why people care about this. Updating is not that hard, and usually automatic. The only possible group you'd be servicing would be the people who pirated older versions of VVVVVV, so they'd be forced to buy it. And that's GOOD! That'd make you more money! And even if they were creators, they can just get the updated M&P. Trying to keep compatibility with old, obsolete versions doesn't make any sense.
