Hi

This is probably a dumb question but I can't see how to attatch several different actions to a model within WED ?

Also, how are actions attatched to a model without using WED ?


Thank you

you can't attach more than one action to a model.

To attach an action to a model without using WED, you can use
ent_create(STRING* filename, VECTOR* position, function); and you give the function parameter the function you want the model to have.

This is the only way i know to attach an action/function to an entity without assigning it in WED.

Ok, the penny has just dropped. You add one action and that contains if else statements for all the other "sub-actions" So if I wanted to use different keys for my models movement, I would use if key_n, if key_m etc for the various animation cycles ?

Is this correct ?

Thanks

that's one of the million possibilities but right in principle.

Right.
That doesn't mean:
1. define a file format for model to function
2. load function name for model name from file
3. grab function by name
4. create entity and assign

or
*use array function pointers in any way

or
*...

The user is only allowed to use if-else / switch-case stacking in that instance.
If the user attempts any other coded route (heresy), the user risks immediate digestion by infinity gremlins.

Also, any user which suggests or even implies that there are not one million possibilities for that instance, will do so at the risk of a penalty so severe it cannot be mentioned in polite forum conversation.


Yes, and NO.

why does tD_Datura_v alias testDummy have multiple accounts? sorry if i'm mistaken here, but you're writing like him.
