Pong Minigame

Couldn't you change this line

Code: [Select]

if Input.trigger?(Input::B)                   
        if Pong_Options::Access_Menu == true

to this?

Code: [Select]

if Input.trigger?(Input::B) && Pong_Options::Access_Menu == true

I'm pretty sure you can do something like that in RGSS 3. There's nothing wrong with the way you wrote it but it just seems cleaner. 

If you actually create a variable called 'Matches' in the module (editable region) and set it to equal an integer number (a whole number like 1, 2, 6, 132; decimal point numbers like 2.0, 3.14, 82.5256 are called floats instead of an integers) then yes, that will work just fine.

YAAAAAAAAY, thank you D&P3!!! You are helping me to learn RGSS on my own!!!!!!!!!!!

If I knew how to + you, I would!

Yes but then I would of had to have done

Code: [Select]

if Input.trigger?(Input::B) && Pong_Options::Access_Menu == true
#do stuff
elsif Input.trigger?(Input::B) && Pong_Options::Access_Menu == false
#do stuff
end


Which means that I am checking four things.
Whereas

Code: [Select]

if Input.trigger?(Input::B)                   
        if Pong_Options::Access_Menu == true
          open_command_window   
        else
          $scene = Scene_Map.new
        end
      end

Means that I'm only checking one thing and not checking anything else unless that one thing is true.

You're most welcome

A bit out of date, but hell why not? Awesome job with this so far, D&P3. I'm just trying to figure something out.

In my game, this should be a one-time occurrence. Basically one of the villains will challenge you to a game of pong; and if you win you move on, but if you lose it's game over.

So basically I have my event take place, a game of pong commences, and then the outcome of that game will determine what happens next. I've disabled access to the menu, set my BGM, images sizes, points to win, and what not. Everything works smoothly until the final point is scored. Then it just sits there waiting for the player to either hit the "escape" key to leave or the "enter" key to play again.

Is there a way to automatically dispose of this window and return to my event once the game has been won or lost?

Thanks again!

I believe if you replace this:

Code: line 2919 [Select]


 if @gameover == true
        if Input.trigger?(Input::C)
          process_pong_reset
        end
      end


with this:

Code: [Select]

if @gameover == true
       $scene = Scene_Map.new
      end


it should work.

This code is very old though, so I don't remember if I had provided a way to test who won a match.

No problems, I'll give it a whirl and see if it works. Thanks for your help!

Nice stuff here, D&P3. It's in the new game.
