Coding Field

[Physicsguy1]

Can there be another field that won't have to function on a certain event? i ran into this when i was building an arm, which had a receiver that calculated and processed everything, but the ontouch and ontick fields require an event to trigger them. Can there be a simple field for code like: if getVar('sens')==1 then setVar('claw',0.6);end
if a==1 then setVar('claw',0);end?

...ontick does it fine, but there can't be 2 ends, one should be elsif.

Actually there can be as many ends as you want. But in this case, there could be a conflict, so you may as well use elsif. Also, onTick works fine and doesn't need an event to trigger it; it's a 'frame' event, occuring every frame or every rate frame. Next version there should be global script, which'd be perfect for this.

if getVar('sens')==1 then setVar('claw',0.6);elseif joybutton("a")==1 then setVar("claw",0);end;

[MrPlanet]

I think thats it...

[Wacov]

You don't need the first 'then'... but yeah

[BTM]

the second time you use setVar("claw"), should be getSetVar.

[Wacov]

If it's going in onTick, what's the point?

[BTM]

yeah, you're right
