Hi People: Tearing my hair out on this one. I created a borg "mark" command (below) that works perfectly, which fires a little draw mark to the current mouse...
One mistake I noticed is that the MOUSPOS returns X then Y, so Y is on top. So really, you'd either have to switch the x1 = and y1 =, or just change the ...
Justletgo, Iptscrae instructions expect numeric values unless specifically for text applications (e.g., saying something, putting something in the log or ...
Alan and TJ09 -- Your counsel is dead-ass accurate. And Alan, your reply is masterful in laying out the simplification of the code, but something is still not...
Sharing a HUGE AH-HAAAAAAH ! ! ! In studying the track of the lines from the PENPOS, created by MOUSEPOS variables in LINETO command, I discovered the "stray"...
It's been awhile at scripting the pen but I thought iptscrae used the command LINE which used two sets of coordinates in order to control the line being drawn....
couple of old borg examples I was able to dig up to demonstrate use of LINE ; ************************************************ ; Draw a thin line from user...
Works fine for me. Actually, it didn't but I just wanted to tweak you a little. I don't do much line drawing so assumed LINETO did what you were tying to do....
I am convinced now that the x, y LINETO values must be OFFSET numeric values from the current PENPOS position, and NOT the x, y coordinate values returned by...
Alan -- You're absolutely right. When u read the iptscrae description of the LINETO command it doesn't make it apparent that the x, y values must be OFFSET ...
Justletgo, The guts of your script will be: xpp GLOBAL ypp GLOBAL MOUSEPOS y = x = xpp ypp x xpp - y ypp - LINE x xpp = y ypp = Alan ... -- Palace scripts:...
Uni, try this from the the command line (enter in the textbox you use to type your chat in) to get ya going on this scribe thing your doing... To SET where...
I've recently visited some palaces with animated rooms that obviously exceed the 16 pic rule and was told that they are installed directly throught the pat...
lets say you want a 30 or 45 pic animation. The simple way to do it is make 2 rooms or 3 depending on how many you want. Do the animation in 2 or 3 parts and...
Just look at a 16 spot image room and continue on with your text editor and upload. Your limit will be 32 outside the internal editor. I suggest you password...
Brad, Alan, TJ09 -- You guys have been absolutely magnificent ! I placed the global PENPOS tracker into the "mark" command, and the actual PENPOS to MOUSEPOS...
In my haste to provide a solution before leaving my house for the evening I made an error. What I meant to suggest was: xpp GLOBAL ypp GLOBAL MOUSEPOS y = x =...
Giggle--well yeah kinda--but the first room pix will be numbered and as was said you go on from there---what that means is numbering the pix in sequence from...
Actually, you can simplify your script up a little: ;; scribe: Draws consecutive lines from current PENPOS to new MOUSEPOS ;; NOTE: Use repeatedly to...
erotic -- First off I agree with what everyone has said to this point, and add the following info. I have made extensive use of the 32 pic gizmo at my private...
Thanks for all the help and suggestions for those who replied. I will do some thorough reading and deciphering before ever attempting this and will try it on...
One additional consideration regarding exceeding 32 pics in a spot. When the Unix/Linux 4.5.1 servers were being developed, having over 32 pics (or states) in...
Gotcha Andy. So for most, if not all, publicly hosted palaces, all of which are hosted by Unix/Linus 4.5.1, there is indeed both a true 32 PICTURE ID and, I...
It was my understanding that the number of images permitted in one room was governed by total KB of the images although I have to admit, I've never tried...
The Unix/Linux 4.5.1 server is checking for the number of states in the spot, not the number of images. If by "animation sequence" you mean spot states,...
Got it. Very clear now. And just to drive this thing to the wall, I would venture to say that even with Unix-Linux you could register any number of PICTURE ID...
I'd be more inclined to put the entire script in just one spot for simplicity but it's up to you and how you need it to work. Off the top of my head, this...
Hey Ian Sorry to answer this so late, forgot about it and all that. As you said in your other mail: Rentahero was the one who made this work. We have an ...
