Development Forum Object Size Increasing When Activated?    Tea Queen Laura        12/22/2013 This agent has six frames and is supposed to increase in size by one each time it's clicked by the Hand, or pushed by a creature. Except right now it doesn't. Here's the code: *activate snowballs so they grow when clicked/pushed by Hand/creature: scrp 2 21 14867 1 *played with toy stim: stim writ from 97 1 *grow: doif pose < 5 setv va00 pose addv va00 1 pose va00 endi endm Any thoughts would be appreciated!   Malkin Manager     12/22/2013 Do you get a bounding box error? What does the install script look like, have you told it use 5 frames for the snowball? My TCR Norns   Tea Queen Laura     12/22/2013 There's no error; the snowballs appear in-game fine, they just don't increase in size, as they should, each time they're clicked or pushed. Here's the relevant part of their install script: *vend snowballs: setv va00 posx setv va01 posy new: simp 2 21 14867 "snowman" 6 1 501 bhvr 33 attr 195 elas 10 aero 5 accg 7 perm 100 fric 50 mvsf va00 va01 targ ownr unlk endm   Mad Scientist clohse     12/22/2013 When I tested a test file with your code the hand couldn't click on it. When I switched to attr 196 it worked fine. CLohse's Norns at the Creatures Repository   Tea Queen Laura     12/22/2013 Thank you, Clohse! That worked a treat. Any idea on how to stop the snowballs growing when I pick them up, though? *vend snowballs: setv va00 posx setv va01 posy new: simp 2 21 14867 "snowman" 6 1 501 bhvr 33 attr 199 elas 10 aero 5 accg 7 perm 100 fric 50 mvsf va00 va01 targ ownr unlk endm   Malkin Manager     12/22/2013 Have you tried using Amaikokonut's ATTR calculator to check off the attributes you want to give your agent? I find it really useful. If you want your agent to be clicked by the hand, it's useful to set a clac event. My TCR Norns   Mad Scientist clohse     12/22/2013 They don't grow when I pick them up. It sounds like another attr issue though. Like maybe the attr is set to allow the hand to activate but not pick up the object? Attr 199 should allow them to be picked up by the hand. I have used attrCalc to check my attr and bhvr values since I started learning about making agents. I love it. (Windows only) CLohse's Norns at the Creatures Repository   Tea Queen Laura     12/22/2013 I'll definitely look into setting CLAC events, but adding a basic pick up script seems to have solved the growing-when-picked-up issue. By the way, thanks for those ATTR calculator links; they'll prove to be very useful. I wish I'd known about them before!
