Commands - List them and what they do

Post by **Bjarne BZR** » Thu May 08, 2003 11:58 pm

OK... I've now added an explanation of classes, combined with a complete class inheritance tree for MOH:AA.
And I've also updated the command explanation structure to incorporate the classes they can be sent to.

All in Appendix A ( Classes and their commands )

Keep your favorite commands ( A.K.A. messages, methods, procedures... ) coming!

This becomes better every day

What I' missing in Object Manipulation is 'move'. Unfortunatelly, I'm far from knowing how to explain it, I just had some bad probs, because the other movement/rotation commands did nothingbecause they needed a 'move' command to - let's say - execute them. This might therefore be one of the rather important commands.

i need some help on how to make an animate class move or at least seem to move

i realize that the moveSouth, moveNorth, etc... commands don't work-is there another way?

Have you used the move, or waitmove commands after specifying what move to make?

The move & waitmove commands work like saying "OK, execute the movements I told you to earlier".

u need a script object or model.

Rox, you have a point... but as often you dont explain it very well.

What rox is saying ( i think :shock:

) is that the Animate class does not support the movement commands. They are defined lower down in the class hierarchy chain in the class ScriptSlave. All script objects and script origins and other script stuff are inheriting these commands from the ScriptSlave class, so what you need is probably a script_object ( if you want to move it around ).

Perhaps redoing the g_allclasses.html would be good. Like g_allclasses.html for dummys with aditional information squeesed in after each, maybe even in a different color. It would help me thats for sure.

Thanks
