Danmakufu Q&A/Problem Thread v3

[Chronojet ⚙ Dragon]

Strings are stored as an array, numbers aren't. In order to get each digit, this is what I did:

Code: [Select]

let num=GetScore;
while(num>0){
  digit=num%10; //get the ones digit

  //do stuff to draw the number to the screen

  num=trunc(num/10);  //divide by ten, so next loop will get the tens digit instead, and so on
}

Oh, thanks. This will be useful for some time. *saves code*

P.S. Aw, dang. You remind me of the time I spend playing Mario games, Azure.

EDIT: That snippet of code!!
This is what the creators of Touhou Mushuugeki ~ Concealed the Conclusion did, isn't it!?

I got a question myself.
You know that bonus thingy under the name of the spell cards?
Is there a function to get this number?

...P.S. This post to be edited, once I get a screenshot of the thing.

Do you mean the one set with SetScore?

Apparently something is wrong with SetShotDataA. I have the 8 arguments. Should there be a function before hand telling danmakufu what SetShotData is?

[Janitor Morgan]

Thanks. You got me through that problem, but now I have another.

CreateShotA(2,GetEnemyX+20*cos(dir),GetEnemyY+20*sin(dir),0);
SetShotDataA(2,0,1,dir,-0,2,0,1,AQUA23);
FireShot(2);

Your -0.2 has an extra comma in it, making it nine arguments.

I don't know if anyone else thought of it before, but I made that up about 6 hours before I posted that. It's pretty simple when you think about it, actually.

Always Mew⑨: I think the function you want is GetSpellCardBonusScore.

Thank you thank you thank you...

[WriggleNightbug]

Is there a way to obtain the high score? I need to draw it using my number function ^^

[Blargel]

There is a way to get the current score. If you want to get and store high score, you'll need to use common data.
oh hai im back and ready to answer questions again

[Chronojet ⚙ Dragon]

Use common data.
Example:

Code: [Select]

if(GetScore >= GetCommonDataDefault("HighScore", 0)) { SetCommonData("HighScore", GetScore); }

EDIT: Ah, fuck. Blargelunar-dial'd.

Is there a way to make it so that the value wont be erased if the script is reset? =o

[Chronojet ⚙ Dragon]

Is there a way to make it so that the value wont be erased if the script is reset? =o

Code: [Select]

SaveCommonData;
It saves all the common data in the file to a file named "The_Script_That_Is_Currently_Running.dat"

You can go to the Danmakufu Wiki if you want more info on common data and stuff.

[Demonbman]

Is there a way to have a A Laser to move straight down?

[Iryan]

When in doubt, use an object laser with Obj_SetY(obj, Obj_GetY(obj) + v); in the while{} brackets, v being the velocity of course.

[Demonbman]

FRICKEN YIELD;!!!!! fixed it

[Iryan]

That is odd. With your code, it shouldn't crash, it should freeze because you forgot the yield;  :V

Also, if you increase v by one every frame, the laser will accelerate to a speed of 10 after 10 frames. You will barely see it before it rushes off the screen with a velocity so fast that it can easily jump through the players hitbox.

Also, Obj_SetSpeed does nothing for a laser if I remember correctly.

Also, the crashing could be because YELLOW60 is not a bullet graphic in the shotsheet you are using.

Also, it looks like you might have an additional closing } bracket in there. That could of course be the couse for your crashing, too.

[AweStriker Nova]

Speaking of lasers, what bullet type is the best one to use for a projectile-type laser? Mine stretches out a ton, so I'm not quite sure what to use.

I'm using the 4.1 shotsheet, because it matters.

You're usually looking for the big bubble bullets, the ones with the white outline and actual tiny hitboxes.

[Furienify]

Also, for some reason I can't figure this out- how can I make custom player characters actually appear on my list? Right now it's only Reimu/Marisa/Rumia.

[Iryan]

Well, put the respective folder in your player folder, make shure that the player script has the correct head, and then try to scroll sideways inside the player select menu.

Also, if you are making your own player character, make shure that the folder your player script is in has a one-word-name. For some reason danmakufu will read a folder "Youmu Player" as two folders named "Youmu" and "Player" when inside the player directory, so danmakufu will crash when you try to select the player.

Other than that, I don't know...

My bad, it's the card/plural scripts themselves restricting the characters to the default. Derp.

[AweStriker Nova]

That works fairly well, but I was thinking more along the lines of the Nue/Letty/Merlin/Shou curved lasers.

[Iryan]

In that case I'd use the ones commented as "Glowing medium round bullets (right side)"

[AweStriker Nova]

Code: [Select]

task gammaray(theta){
let dtheta = rand(-25,25);
let tracked = false;
let gamray = Obj_Create(OBJ_SINUATE_LASER);
Obj_SetPosition(gamray,GetX,GetY);
Obj_SetSpeed(gamray,1);
Obj_SetAngle(gamray,theta+dtheta);
ObjShot_SetGraphic(gamray,GREEN41);
ObjSinuateLaser_SetWidth(gamray,4);
ObjSinuateLaser_SetLength(gamray,30);
while(!Obj_BeDeleted(gamray)){
while(tracked == false){
if(GetDistance(GetPlayerX,GetPlayerY,Obj_GetX(gamray),Obj_GetY(gamray)))<150){
Obj_SetAngle(gamray,atan2(GetPlayerY-GetY,GetPlayerX-GetX));
Obj_SetSpeed(gamray,4);
tracked = true;
}
yield;
}
if(Obj_GetY(gamray)>GetClipMaxX){
Obj_SetAngle(gamray,180-Obj_GetAngle(gamray));
}
yield;
}
}
...
function GetDistance(x1,y1,x2,y2){
return((((x2-x1)^2)+((y2-y1)^2))^(1/2);
}
I get an error saying I have mismatched braces somewhere in this task. Where is it?

[Fetch()tirade]

         if(GetDistance(GetPlayerX,GetPlayerY,Obj_GetX(gamray),Obj_GetY(gamray)))<150){

   function GetDistance(x1,y1,x2,y2){
      return((((x2-x1)^2)+((y2-y1)^2))^(1/2);
   }

Wrong number of parentheses. Put another one after if.

[AweStriker Nova]

Ah. That worked.

Next issue: I can't get AddShot to work correctly.

[Drake]

It would help if we knew what you were doing, but I'm pretty sure I know what it is already.

[AweStriker Nova]

Here's a sample of broken AddShot:

Code: [Select]

//Moving, shooting wall laser:Crazy Wall
task crazywall{
let spawnpoint = 0;
let direction = 0;
if(GetPlayerX>GetCenterX){
spawnpoint = GetClipMinX;
direction = 0;
}else{
spawnpoint = GetClipMaxX;
direction = 180;
}
CreateLaserA(1,spawnpoint,0,GetCenterX,25,AQUA03,60);
SetLaserDataA(1,0,direction,0,0,0,90);
SetLaserDataA(1,60,direction,0,0,0.25,90);
SetShotKillTime(1,600);
ascent(a in 0..20){
CreateLaserC(2,0,0,4,30,AQUA41,0);
SetLaserDataC(2,0,4,90,0,0,0);
ascent(b in 0..10){
AddShot(30*a,1,2,GetCenterX*b/10);
}
ascent(b in 0..9){
AddShot(30*a+15,1,2,GetCenterX*b/9);
}
}
FireShot(1);
}
Edited; the code means the wall will spawn on the side of the field the player's not on.

[Blargel]

AddShot(30*a,1,2,GetCenterX*b/10);

You're telling it to shoot at GetCenterX*b/10 from the base of the laser. GetCenterX just means 244 so you're telling it to shoot at 244*b/10 from the laser's base along the laser.

(Does that even make sense?)
