i know how to make a block go up and then go down again, with scripting, but how do i do it so that it does this in a continus loop?
Thanks

for sound of mind since this is an infinite loop do this
Code: Select all
partloop:
local.loopy = 1
while(local.loopy = 1)
{
wait 5 // what ever you want
$part time .001 // time from wayD to wayA
$part moveto $wayA
$part waitmove
$part show
$part time 10.6 // the time that would be used to go from wayA to wayB
$part moveto $wayB
$part waitmove
$part hide
$part time .001 // time from wayC to wayD
$part moveto $wayC
$part waitmove
$part time .001 // time from wayD to wayA
$part moveto $wayD
$part waitmove
}
end

rit this is JUST like actionscript, would this work???:
blockmove:
while(1){
block moveup 432
block movedown 432
}
end
One thing is, that in actionscript if you have a while loop that continues for more than 15 seconds, it produces an error. Will it do it in this???
yes

Yes it will make the game crash. It needs a wait line inside the loop to slow it down--like "wait 1" or "wait .5". Also, targetnames in the script should look like this, "$block", and you need to add this line after each of the lines that set the direction of movement.
$block waitmove

so will this work?:
while(1){
wait 3
$block moveup 432
$block waitmove
$block movedown 432
$block waitmove
}
end

cant you just do this:
If you want it to wait before it goes back down:
Code: Select all
block_loop:
$block loopsound lighthouse_run // if you want sound
$block moveup 123 // or how ever much you want it to go up
$block waitmove
$block stoploopsound
wait 5 // or how ever long you want it to wait
$block loopsound lighthouse_run
$block movedown 123
$block waitmove
$block stoploopsound
goto block_loop
end
If you want it to wait before going back up:
Code: Select all
block_loop:
$block loopsound lighthouse_run // if you want sound
$block moveup 123 // or how ever much you want it to go up
$block movedown 123
$block waitmove
$block stoploopsound
wait 5 // or how ever long you want it to wait
goto block_loop
end

In short: yes
