open and close the door

[frank]

hi Agustín !!

Thx for the answer.

I think i ll need a variable to detect if the motion reach the end of the
portion open for then determine which portion of the animation have to
play...
My motion is 3333 ms long and there is my scrip to open the door :


on mouseUp me
thisSprite = sprite(me.spriteNum)
-- Get the mouse location, adjusted to the sprite,
-- in the old 2D manner.
theLoc = the mouseLoc - point(sprite(thisSprite).left,
sprite(thisSprite).top)
-- Find the model under the mouse closest to the camera
theModel = sprite(thisSprite).camera(1).modelUnderLoc(theLoc)
if theModel = member("19_anim").model("bouton_arriere") then
member(1).model("bouton_arriere").keyframeplayer.p layrate = 0.5
-- play
member(1).model("bouton_arriere").keyframeplayer.p lay("bouton_arriere-Motion
0", 0, 0, 1250, 1)
end if
end

Yup. That´s true. You have a copuple of ways for accomplishing this.
The easier is to set a variable TRUE or FALSE depending on the state od
the door:

property pDoorOpened

on mouseUp me
--mousePicking code

if pDoorOpened = FALSE then

--OPEN:
member(1).model("bouton_arriere").keyframeplayer.p lay("bouton_arriere-Motion0",
0, 0, 1250, 1)
pDoorOpened = TRUE

else

--CLOSE:
member(1).model("bouton_arriere").keyframeplayer.p lay("bouton_arriere-Motion0",
0, 0, 1250, -1, 1250)
pDoorOpened = FALSE

end if

But this doesn´t avoid the user clicking while the door is moving thus
messing up the motion. You´d have to add some detection to see if the
motion is playing or not.

property pDoorOpened
property pMember
property pMotionPlaying

on beginSprite me
pMember = member(1)
pMember.registerForEvent(#animationStarted, #forbidAnim, me)
pMember.registerForEvent(#animationEnded, #allowAnim, me)
end

on forbidAnim me --llamado por evento #animationStarted
pMotionPlaying = TRUE --se está reproduciendo un motion
end

on allowAnim me --llamado por evento #animationEnded
pMotionPlaying = FALSE --no hay nada en la playList
end

on mouseUp me
--mousePicking code

if pMotionPlaying = FALSE then

if pDoorOpened = FALSE then

--OPEN:
member(1).model("bouton_arriere").keyframeplayer.p lay("bouton_arriere-Motion0",
0, 0, 1250, 1)
pDoorOpened = TRUE

else

--CLOSE:
member(1).model("bouton_arriere").keyframeplayer.p lay("bouton_arriere-Motion0",
0, 0, 1250, -1, 1250)
pDoorOpened = FALSE

end if
end if

Take care... it´s all e-mail-Lingo. But it should give an idea of how
to handle this.

C´ya!
