Development Forum Button animation on a compound gadget?    Mad Scientist clohse        8/4/2013 I am trying to make sure that the animations work before I addin any real "actions", so the scripts are empty except for animations. I want the buttons to flash quickly with mouse over then go dark, and flash slowly on activation, then go dark. Everything mostly works until the button is activated; then it does slow flash on mouse over and slow on activate. Sometimes it will also stop on the bright button instead of the dark button.(Did that make sense?) new: comp 2 24 16104 "sprite" 1 0 750 attr 199 bhvr 40 elas 30 perm 100 aero 20 accg 10 fric 10 tick 10 pupt -1 18 0 *red button PAT: Butt 1 "sprite" 1 6 -1 8 751 [3 0 255] 1000 1 *yellow button PAT: Butt 2 "sprite" 2 6 16 -1 751 [3 0 255] 1001 1 *green button PAT: Butt 3 "sprite" 3 6 31 8 751 [3 0 255] 1002 1 **Put it in the DS Injector Room seta va00 targ setv va00 game "CreatorX" setv va01 game "CreatorY" doif va00 eq 0 and va01 eq 0 setv va00 6106 setv va01 9209 endi mvsf va00 va01 *********red button activate scrp 2 24 16104 1000 inst part 1 frat 3 anim [3 0 3 0 3 0] slow endm *********yellow button activate scrp 2 24 16104 1001 inst part 2 frat 3 anim [3 0 3 0 3 0] slow endm ********green button activate scrp 2 24 16104 1002 inst slow part 3 frat 3 anim [3 0 3 0 3 0] endm Any suggestions? CLohse's Norns at the Creatures Repository   Prodigal Sock Ghosthande     8/5/2013  1 I believe it's because the scripts set FRAT to 3, but you never change it back again; FRAT is a constant variable, like PERM or ATTR, it doesn't reset itself at the end of a script. So the next time you mouse-over the button... FRAT is still set to 3. You could try something like this: scrp 2 24 16104 X inst part X frat 3 anim [3 0 3 0 3 0] over frat 1 endm That will wait until the animation has concluded, and then reset FRAT to 1.   Mad Scientist clohse     8/5/2013 That does it! Thanks so much! CLohse's Norns at the Creatures Repository
