Title: Teleport Problem
Post by: iluvcat on 2005-03-17, 03:10:21 PM

:?:
I need to teleport from a to b. b being a spot that you cant go back through. Then I need to go across the map to teleport c that takes me to d.

My problem is I have 4 telepost settings :
portal 1 should take me from 47,12 to 3, 44 but keeps spitting out at the beginning of the map.

I havent been able to test the c to d teleport that is supposed to take me from  392, 47 to 60,12

I think I know your problem.  If the settings you have for the first one are x: 3 and 7: 44, then yes, it will telleport you back to the beginning of the map.  3 pixels from the left, and 44 pixels from the top.  I assume that what you want to do is teleport 3 tiles over and 44 tiles down.  In which case, you would have to change 3 to 3 * tilewidth of tileset on player's layer (not player sprite width).  For example, if your tiles are 32X32 pixels, then you would put X: 96 Y: 1408

Same with the second one.

Ooh, also, you don't need four special functions.  Is that what you meant when you said "I have 4 telepost settings"?

You only need special functions at the place where you need to be teleported from.

Yes, I did make 4 special functions. But I was reading my coordinates wrong. I see my mistake now and have corrected it. Thanks guys!
