Hi everyone, I have been working on a game finally with Game Guru for the past couple of weeks. But unfortunately this has consequently allowed me to see what limitations there are of which there still are many unfortunately. I don't think my project is that all ambitious either.

I'm hoping my next question is not also a no. But why is it that I'm unable to modify the players run speed via LUA? Or even disable and enable? My game requires this.

Noticed a lot more commands related to player running controls but it seems i cant actually write to them? Only read? It has been helpful to read from "if GetGamePlayerControlIsRunning()" but it seems i cannot write to the similar "SetGamePlayerControlCanRun()". I just receive an error when I attempt to.

same-wise with trying to lock jumping via lua.

I have found the same with a lot of the more player controller lua commands, there is not a lot of explanation on use, I think we need some tutorials on how the syntax works on these commands. Spend a lot of time with errors, unexpected results etc.

I can help if you have an excerpt of the lua code your trying to implement. What example of errors are you getting?

There is a easy quick way to do this if you do not want the player to run at all ...
Change the " Shift " key to the "Esc" key ... If that's pressed the game just exits as normal ..
Tried and tested works great Effectively run is disabled .. In the setup.ini change ..
keyRUN = 42 to
keyRUN = 1

Lol, an effective and neat trick there synchromesh

I expect most of the commands work as you think they do but they are being overwritten by the gameplayer loop (or whatever the script is actually called).
Its likely you will need to edit that rather than try make your own.

Here's the commands I'm having problems with:

SetGamePlayerControlJumpMode()
SetGamePlayerControlCanRun()
SetGamePlayerControlIsRunning()
SetGamePlayerControlMaxspeed()
SetGamePlayerControlTopspeed()
SetGamePlayerControlMovement()
SetGamePlayerControlSpeed()
SetGamePlayerControlAccel()
SetGamePlayerControlBasespeed()

Trying to trigger the player to no longer be able to run at certain parts within the game based on various variables. Also to trigger it back in game. All via LUA.

I was hoping setting SetGamePlayerControlCanRun() = 0 would be effective.

EDIT: Got everything working! There are some strange behaviors happening but things are working with the above commands. very exciting to have all these new options opened up for us to play around with.
