Title: This old menu script
Post by: chief1983 on February 19, 2008, 09:48:47 pm

Ok, I'm pretty sure I got all the function calls updated, but I'm not very good with Lua and might be trying to access something incorrectly, I don't know, but the script doesn't seem to be doing anything at all.  So I don't know if there's something else fundamental about the script that needs to change, or what.  If someone could just peek, and see if there's anything that stands out that would be good.

Code: [Select]

#State Hooks
$State: GS_STATE_MAIN_MENU
$Hook: [

   if init == nil then

   randomChoice = {"BTL-A4 Y-Wing","T-65c X-Wing","T.I.E. Fighter","TIE/In Interceptor"} --Put your ship classes in quotes here


-- getShipClass seems to be replaced with ShipClass[]
   numChoices = table.getn(randomChoice)
--   randomShip = tb.getShipClass(randomChoice[math.random(1,numChoices)])
   randomShip = tb.ShipClasses[randomChoice[math.random(1,numChoices)]]
   shipName = randomShip.Name
   init = 42
   end

   logo = "fotg"   --This is the name of the logo you want. No extension needed

   imgWidth = gr.getImageWidth(logo)
   imgHeight = gr.getImageHeight(logo)

   renderX2 = screenWidth * 0.8
   renderY1 = screenHeight * 0.1
   renderY2 = screenHeight * 0.9
   rendermidX = (renderX1+renderX2)/2
   imageX = (screenWidth*0.5)-imgWidth/2
   imageY = 0



   rotConst = 7 --Modify this to make it turn faster to slower

   if rotate_pct then
      rotate_pct = rotate_pct +  rotConst*ba.getFrametime()
      if rotate_pct > 100 then
         rotate_pct = rotate_pct - 100
      end
   else
      rotate_pct = 40
   end

   randomShip:renderTechModel(renderX1, renderY1, renderX2, renderY2, rotate_pct)
   gr.setColor(255,255,255)
   gr.drawString(shipName,rendermidX-gr.getStringWidth(shipName)/2,renderY2)

   --Handle using the middle mouse to force random ship selection
   --Because we can only tell whether the button was down, we have to check for it last frame
   --by setting the variable middle_was_down

   if not middle_was_down then
--      middle_was_down = ms.isButtonDown("Middle")
      middle_was_down = io.isMouseButtonDown(MOUSE_MIDDLE_BUTTON)
      force_random = middle_was_down

"State Hooks" was removed because Conditional scripting made it redundant.

Code: [Select]

#Conditional Hooks
$State: GS_STATE_MAIN_MENU
$On Frame: [
     -- Code goes here
]
#End
Should work exactly the same as the old state hooks.

That was my guess, something there had changed, but couldn't find a good example of what to change it to.  Thanks a bunch :)
