instead of if(key_e==on) place if(key_enter==on)...
If I understood you rigt...

It works fine, thanks to all! But when i press key_e the entity turns very fast, have a way to change de speed that the entity rotate?
Thanks!

With vec_to_angle(my.pan, temp); you set the new angle (pan) directly. If you want to turn it use c_rotate.


--->>

Save the new angle.
Code:

---

//create new vector to store angles
var vecAngle[3]

-> vec_to_angle(vecAngle, temp);

---

then calculate the difference between the angle the enemy has now and the one he should turn to.

Code:

---

//get diff between current angle and the needed
vec_diff(temp, vecAngle, my.pan);

---

then turn your enemy

Code:

---

c_rotate(me, temp, glide);

---

I didnt test it but it should work.

I did not understand...
How i can apply this code to the old code?
I substitute the old code:
vec_set(temp, player.x);
vec_sub(temp, my.x);
vec_to_angle(my.pan, temp);
for the new:
var vecAngle[3]
vec_diff(temp, vecAngle, my.pan);
c_rotate(me, temp, glide);

and the entity turns to left, and not to the player...
Thanks!

Code:

---

var vecAngle[3];
vec_set(temp, player.x);
vec_sub(temp, my.x);
vec_to_angle(vecAngle, temp);
vec_diff(temp, vecAngle, my.pan);
c_rotate(me, temp, glide);

thanks! this works, but the entity rotate very fast too... How i change the speed of the rotation? Thanks a lot!

Code:

---

var vecAngle[3];
vec_set(temp, player.x);
vec_sub(temp, my.x);
vec_to_angle(vecAngle, temp);
vec_diff(temp, vecAngle, my.pan);

var Scale =0.25;//(play with 0.25...)
var counter=0;
var tmpCounter;

//scale vector, make it slower
vec_scale(temp,Scale); 

//calculate how many times to rotate when vector is scaled
tmpCounter= 1 /Scale;  //when using 0.25 -> 4


while(counter < tmpCounter)
{
  c_rotate(me, temp, glide);
  counter+=1;
  wait(1);
}

dont know if this will work but I hope


nipx

Thanks a lot! I just made a change in the order of the lines of you code and it works fine!
Thanhs to all!!!

try this:

Code:

---

//scale vector, make it slower
vec_scale(temp,(Scale *time_step)); 

//calculate how many times to rotate when vector is scaled
tmpCounter= Scale  *time_step  ; 

while(counter < tmpCounter)
{
  c_rotate(me, temp, glide);
  counter+=1;
  wait(1);
}

---

edit: if it works now you still should include time_step in your code otherwise the rotation wont be smooth

Thanks! This code work fine too... but the codes that you have posted have just a problem, when i try to walk around the entity, some times he have a "bug", he turns to the wrong side. example: i go to the left of the entity and the entity rotate to right to go for the left... Have a way to fix this bug?
I hope that you have understood me.
Thanks!
