  • so were you able to just automatically convert that are you saying?

    No, I removed function calls, converted, then added function calls manually.

  • It works fine with the new function for me.

  • Is this what you are trying to do?

  • When P1 sprite is mirrored, its width is a negative value. So (P1.X-(P1.Width/2)) really becomes (P1.X+(P1.ImageWidth/2))

    Instead, use BBoxLeft and BBoxRight expressions.

    Level.TileAt(Level.PositionToTileX(P1.BBoxLeft-edgeDistTolerance),Level.PositionToTileY(P1.Y-10))

  • Maybe the value is stored as string in the array? You can test this by printing Stats.AsJSON to console log. If the value is shown as "1.3", then it's a string.

  • Is there a way to have the health bar show the proper status before the function call five second command?

    Yes, you can call the function on start of the layout with amount=0. It will not change the variable, but will update the health bar and everything else. Or you can simply update the health bar on start of layout:

    -> Sprite_Health: Set animation frame to int(HungryScore)

  • Don't rely on the health bar, it can show 0 when the value is really 0.95

    Run the game in Debug Mode (Shift+F4 or Shift+F5) and check the variable value there.

  • It's not a bug, this is how strings are concatenated. Add round brackets:

    ... & "/" & (25*Stats.at(Hardness,1))

  • "Event eat" sheet belongs to Eat layout, so events from it will only work in Eat layout. If you want these events to be available in other layouts, you need to include "Event eat" sheet there - right-click -> Include event sheet.

    This is not required if you only want to call the function from other layouts.

    .

    When I run Eat layout directly, I can see in the debugger how HungryScore decreases by -0.05 every 5 seconds.

    .

    Also, events 10-15 are not needed. You already have "Sprite_Health: Set animation frame to int(HungryScore)" action which updates the health bar.

    Events 16-26 need to be inside the function.

  • I ran the code you gave as an example it deducts .5 and shows on the health bar but then stops subtracting and stays there.

    It should stop once the variable reaches 0. If you want to allow negative values, then remove the "Set HungryScore to clamp()" action.

    Also, you probably still have lots of other events in the project that can change the value of HungryScore variable and mess with your test.

  • Press P to add a function parameter. Or right-click

  • Also, do not use 'wait 4 seconds' before loading AJAX data, as the contents of AJAX.lastData may have changed by the time the wait ends. (if you make several AJAX calls)
