Wall damage script triggers in a strange way

NED · Oct 7, 2015

Hello,
My use of wall damage wall bounce edited script seems to cause problem.
This script triggers when a falling enemy is close to a wall (based on Magggas script)

It works perfectly, but the wall effect seems to triggers in an anwanted situation : when enemy falls from a particular custom slam.
Even when there is no wall around. I really don't understand why...
I used a debug sound to detect if the move is active. "0000debug.wav"
The problem never appears when enemy is killed by the actual slam move.

Any help is welcome.
Thanks

wall damage script

Code:

void walldam(int Dist, int Move, int Distz)
{// Checks if there is wall at defined distance
// If there is wall, entity will be moved away with defined movement (based on antiwall) envoie vers follow45
   void self = getlocalvar("self");
   int Direction = getentityproperty(self, "direction");
   int x = getentityproperty(self, "x");
   int y = getentityproperty(self, "a");
   int z = getentityproperty(self, "z");
   float H;
   float Hz;

   if(Direction == 0){ //Is entity facing left?                  
      Dist = -Dist; //Reverse Dist to match facing
      Move = -Move; //Reverse Move to match facing
   }

   H = checkwall(x+Dist,z);
   Hz = checkwall(x+Dist,z+Distz);

   if(Hz >= y)
   {
     changeentityproperty(self, "position", x, z-Distz);
     changeentityproperty(self, "velocity", 0, 0, 0); //Stop moving!
     changeentityproperty(self, "animation", openborconstant("ANI_FOLLOW45"));
   }

   if(H >= y)
   {
     changeentityproperty(self, "position", x+Move);
     changeentityproperty(self, "velocity", 0, 0, 0); //Stop moving!
     changeentityproperty(self, "animation", openborconstant("ANI_FOLLOW45"));
   }
}

Finish script I use for slams

Code:

{ // Damage as slam or throw finisher
   void self = getlocalvar("self");
   void target = getlocalvar("Target" + self);
   int SDir = getentityproperty(target,"direction");
   int MDir;

   if(Face==0){ // Same facing?
       MDir = SDir;
   }

   if(Face==1){ // Opposite facing?

     if(SDir==0){ // Facing left?
       MDir = 1;
     } else { MDir = 0;}
   }

   if(target==NULL())
   {
     target = getentityproperty(self, "grabbing");
     setlocalvar("Target" + self, target);
   }
   if(target!=NULL())
   {

Hmmm... I think you need to fix your walldam function

Code:

void walldam(int Dist, int Move, int Distz)
{// Checks if there is wall at defined distance
// If there is wall, entity will be moved away with defined movement (based on antiwall) envoie vers follow45
   void self = getlocalvar("self");
   int Direction = getentityproperty(self, "direction");
   int x = getentityproperty(self, "x");
   int y = getentityproperty(self, "a");
   int z = getentityproperty(self, "z");
   float H;
   float Hz;

   if(Direction == 0){ //Is entity facing left?                 
      Dist = -Dist; //Reverse Dist to match facing
      Move = -Move; //Reverse Move to match facing
   }

   H = checkwall(x+Dist,z);
   Hz = checkwall(x+Dist,z+Distz);

   if(Hz > y)
   {
     changeentityproperty(self, "position", x, z-Distz);
     changeentityproperty(self, "velocity", 0, 0, 0); //Stop moving!
     changeentityproperty(self, "animation", openborconstant("ANI_FOLLOW45"));
   }

   if(H > y)
   {
     changeentityproperty(self, "position", x+Move);
     changeentityproperty(self, "velocity", 0, 0, 0); //Stop moving!
     changeentityproperty(self, "animation", openborconstant("ANI_FOLLOW45"));
   }
}

FYI checkwall function returns 0 if it doesn't find any wall on defined coordinates. This could cause the function to be run if the function is run when entity is exactly on ground even when there were no wall at all. Therefore I removed = to ensure that the detected wall must be higher than entity's altitude

BTW antiwall checks and moves entity twice if it find wall at back and left/right. This edited function will do checks twice too meaning the animation change will occur if the wall is at back instead of left/right. Is this what you want?

I used your updated script.
I completely understand the logic of it.
It wasn't not changing anything first.

But I finally edited the last "@cmd position" before the depost to a higher Y value
-1 changed to 1

Code:

@cmd    position 35 1 1 0 -1

And it finally works.

About wall facing or not facing edit.
I'm not really sure for the moment.
I might make the wall bounce too for some slam fall anims
And sometimes entity might be facing the wall when falling... so...

Anyway. thanks a LOT for helping me fixing it out, BB!
