Timing in frames

[chickens1127]

Is there a code that would say...

After the frame comes up, if a hotspot is clicked within a second it goes to this frame, and if they click it between 1.1 and 1.9 seconds it goes to another frame, and have 4 or 5 of these.

Yes, but this complicated enough...

Create a VARIANT VARIABLE called Time1.

In the FRAME PROPERTIES of the frame, type this code:

Code: Select all

Time1 = Time

Now in the HOTSPOT PROPERTIES of the hotspot being clicked, type this code:

Code: Select all

Time2 = Time

Q = DateDiff("s",Time1,Time2)

If Q < 1 then Action.GoToFrame"Frame1" : Inv = 1
If Inv = 0 Then If Q < 2 then Action.GoToFrame"Frame2" : Inv = 1
If Inv = 0 Then If Q < 3 then Action.GoToFrame"Frame3" : Inv = 1
If Inv = 0 Then If Q < 4 then Action.GoToFrame"Frame4" : Inv = 1
If Inv = 0 Then If Q < 5 then Action.GoToFrame"Frame5" : Inv = 1

This code measures how the time between the FRAME APPEARING and the HOTSPOT BEING CLICKED and uses it to decide which action to trigger.

Hope that helps,

I would say...

Create integer variable Time

In frame properties type:

Code: Select all

ACtion.CreateTimedEvent 0.1 Time=Time+1

In hotspot properties type:

Code: Select all

If (Time/10)<1.1 Then
Action.GotoFrame "firstframe"
else if (Time/10)<1.9 Then
Action.GotoFrame "Secondframe"
etc...
End IF
End If

Thanks, becuase I need it as a timing system in a game.
