As far as pushable object, just put a



void push( void )

{

//find out which direction dink is facing

int &dinkdir = sp_dir(1, -1);

if (&dinkdir == 2)

   move_stop(&current_sprite, 2, y, 1);

etc for other directions



}



procedure in there, and also set a sp_speed(&current_sprite, 1) for the object.

: As long as there are mods, makers will have questions! Thanks to all in advance if you could help sort out this dilema:

: I figured out how to make Dink start with the "God Sword of Doom", and I even got him to say something whenever he equips it. :o Instead of just one thing, however, I'd like him to say a few random things every time he pulls it out. The code I tried hasn't worked:

: void armmovie(void)

: {

:  &pap = random(5, 1);

:  if (&pap == 1)

:  {

:  say("Ah, I have armed my God Sword of Doom! Mwahaha!", 1);

:  }

:  if (&pap == 2)

:  {

:  say("I love my God Sword of Doom!", 1);

:  }

:  if (&pap == 3)

:  {

:  say("Its time to kick ass and chew bubblegum!", );

:  wait(1000);

:  say("And I'm all outta gum!", 1);

:  }

:  if (&pap == 4)

:  {

:  say("Come get some!", 1);

:  }

:  if (&pap == 5)

:  {

:  say("Hiya!", 1);

:  }

: }

: I also have a script at the top of the page:

: void main( void )

: {

:  int &pap;

: }



Here's your problem. Item scripts don't have a main() procedure. Put int &pap; in arm() instead. In fact, put the rest of that in arm too, nobody uses armmovie, despite what dinkc.txt says, and while it probably works fine, if it didn't no one would be able t help you.



One other thing, in most case, it's better to use say_stop instead of say if someone needs to say more than one thing in a row. That way you don't need to put in the wait(1000) and as an extra bonus, if Dink is frozen (which he isn't in this case I guess) the user can press space to let the computer know their done reading the first message if they don't want to wait.
