 |
|
The script itself is quite self explanatory (as is the subject of this post). What's not is why it won't work.
| Code: |
script, allinswap, begin
if (place0==rank in caterpillar (0)) then
(
swap in hero (place1)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place1), 1)
swap in hero (place2)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place2), 2)
swap in hero (place3)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place3), 3)
)
if (place1==rank in caterpillar (0)) then
(
swap by position (1,0 )
swap in hero (place2)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place2), 0)
swap in hero (place2)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place2), 2)
swap in hero (place3)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place3), 3)
)
if (place2==rank in caterpillar (0)) then
(
swap by position (2,0 )
swap in hero (place0)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place0), 0)
swap in hero (place1)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place1), 1)
swap in hero (place3)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place3), 3)
)
if (place3==rank in caterpillar (0)) then
(
swap by position (3,0 )
swap in hero (place0)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place0), 0)
swap in hero (place1)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place1), 1)
swap in hero (place2)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place2), 2)
)
end
|
The script used to save the places in the variables is a simple:
set variable (place0, herobyslot (0))...and so on and so forth.
Answers? Shut up Dan? Anything? Post away :flamedevil: |

| The "swap by position" command uses the hero's position in the party, not the hero's rank in the caterpillar. You do not want any caterpillar commands when dealing with hero swapping. |

I thought that might be the problem (good thing I turned that into a command plotscript or I'd have hell). I'm gonna go try to fix it right now. If I have anymore problems, I'll edit this message.
Edit: Ok, I have no idea of what to do! Can you help me again spam man? |

This won't solve your problem but;
swap in hero (place2)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place2), 0)
swap in hero (place2)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place2), 2)
swap in hero (place3)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place3), 3)
shouldn't this be...
swap in hero (place0)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place0), 0)
swap in hero (place2)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place2), 2)
swap in hero (place3)
swap by position (rank in caterpillar (place3), 3)

Uhh...maybe I'm just tired, but what is "place1"? I would think it refers to some position in the caterpillar (0 - 3), but when you say "swap in hero (place0)", I get confused.
And please, could you tell me what you are trying to do, such as: how "place0" and such were given a value, what you want to happen at the end, and anything else relevant to what you are trying to do?
Thanks,
~Worthy

Here is what I came up with...
| Code: | script,saveall,begin
beefzokposition:=rank in caterpillar (1:beefzok)
pieraposition:=rank in caterpillar (2:piera)
hamfluxposition:=rank in caterpillar (3:hamflux)
porklanposition:=rank in caterpillar (4:porklan) #change the hero names so they are correct (with the number & spelling)
end
script,allinswap,begin
variable (i)
for (i,0,3,1) do #for statements are fun
(
if (beefzokposition==i) then
(
swap in hero (1:beefzok)
)
if (pieraposition==i) then
(
swap in hero (2:piera)
)
if (hamfluxposition==i) then
(
swap in hero (3:hamflux)
)
if (porklanposition==i) then
(
swap in hero (4:porklan)
)
)
end |
Change all the hero names & numbers (e.g. 3:hamflux) to whatever they are in your game file or it won't work.
Hope this helps,
~Worthy

Nope, didn't work.
But I think you're on to something Worthy.
I might be able to fix this now.
Again, thanks for the help Worthy. |

Alright. If you can't fix it, let me know specifically what happens when you used the script I recommended, and I should be able to help you.

| It turns out I forgot to edit the numbers before the names. The script doesn't FULLY work, but it works in the script that Hamflux is added. |

Ugh...sorry, I forgot that you will already have a hero occupying the 0 slot. You going to have to take that hero out prior to swapping in the hero going to the 0 slot.

| Ok Worthy, your script works perfectly ( I think. If I find any problems, I'll say). Now all I need to figure out is how to swap two people in a party if the person who's not the leader needs to be the leader. |

The problems are solved. I used a script to switch the leader and the person getting the class change (since this is a non-caterpillar game).
Thank's for all the help Worthy. |
