Reverse engeneering the short distance realtime teleport

[etherealblade]

I'm currently trying to get the consecutive attack thing going. Still there is no dice, but this is what I got so far. Let me know if you see some things that are obviously wrong with this. It was suggested that looping animations was simpler but I'm not sure what that is.

 

scn combinationattackscript

ref TargetVar
float Right
int Left
int LeftPower
int RightPower
int BackPower
float timer
int NButton
int iFaceEachOther
float fTempAngle

Begin ScriptEffectStart

if (iFaceEachOther > 0)
               if (iFaceEachOther == 5)        ;skip a few frames to allow the moveto to complete. Adjust as required more or less
                       set fTempAngle to Player.GetAngle Z + Player.GetHeadingAngle TargetVar          ;these should make the player and target face each other. I think.
                       Player.SetAngle Z fTempAngle
                       set fTempAngle to TargetVar.GetAngle Z + TargetVar.GetHeadingAngle Player
                       TargetVar.SetAngle Z fTempAngle
                       set iFaceEachOther to 0
               else
                       set iFaceEachOther to iFaceEachOther + 1
                       return
               endif
       endif

set NButton to IsKeyPressed 49
       if NButton == 0
               return
       endif

               return
       endif
       
       printc "Player Target is %i %n", TargetVar, TargetVar


if player.getdistance TargetVar < 200

On Topic (Keeping Track of Current Topic Related Goals):

 

I can get my character to do the animation, but I've been unsuccessful with making him do several animations in a row. I'm not sure how I'd handle that in script, but I've successfully been able to make him do an attack animation after a teleport and return him to user status. If script allows us to play animations consecutively, it might make for a sweet workaround for not having custom animations yet. Otherwise that's not important and can only be solved by making a custom animation. The major issue is this, how do I make it to where the script:

(It currently can Auto Detect your Current Target)

1) Auto scans for people in the area for eligible "warp" to targets, (I'm sure I saw a script that lets reports those who have targeted you)

2) Warps you to them, (I'd make a play animation attack, It's hit them with a deadly script)

3) Since it doesn't warp to targets that are dead, It'd seek the next available target.

3) Then returns you where you were.
