This seems to be possible ... under constraints.
1. To see an example that works: go tto scriptbank, make a backup of ai_neutral.lua, and then replace it by this code:
function ai_neutral_init(e)
CharacterControlUnarmed(e)
v=1;
end
function ai_neutral_main(e)
PlayerDist = GetPlayerDistance(e)
v=v+1;
Scale(e,v)
if PlayerDist < 200 then
LookAtPlayer(e)
end
end
Then put a start marker in your map, and on top of this add the Wizard character (i.e., the TPV character) and test the level. What you will see is that , the wizard starts small and as time goes on he gets bigger and bigger. This is the command "Scale(e,v)" added in ai_neutral.lua.
2. Here is an example that doesn't work. Repat the above steps but now replace the ai_neutral.lua code with this.
function ai_neutral_init(e)
CharacterControlUnarmed(e)
v=1;
end
function ai_neutral_main(e)
PlayerDist = GetPlayerDistance(e)
v=v+1;
MoveForward(e,v);
if PlayerDist < 200 then
LookAtPlayer(e)
end
end
One would expect that "MoveForward(e,v)" would move the wizard / player forward. But not, he stays in place.
If the above would work,
we would have scriptable control of both the player and the camera!!!
Soo the questions are:
1. Why doesn't it work for MoveForward (but works for Scale)?
2. Most important: How to make it work?
PS: GOT IT!!!!! Have to turn physics off!!!!
Whereof one cannot speak thereof one must be silent
