Elevator cog with multiple stops.
2002-08-12, 8:28 AM #1
I've created a building with 13 floors. Now i'm using the 00_basic elevator, which only has two frames (the top and bottom) and it runs continously. Is there a COG in JK or one I can download that runs continuously but I can program 13 stops?

Its been awhile since Ive done one. . . .

Code: 
# Simple elevator script.  User-definable number of floors.
#
#08/2002 GBK
Symbols
Message Startup
Message Arrived
Message Timer
Thing Elevator
Int Num_floors=13		#Number of stops.
Flex Sleeptime=2		#How long to wait.
Flex Speed=4		#Speed of elev.
Int I=0				Local
End
Code

Startup: Settimer(Sleeptime); Stop;
Timer: If(Getcurframe(Elevator) == Num_floors) I=1;
Else If(Getcurframe(Elevator) == 0) I=0;
If(!I) Movetoframe(Elevator, Getcurframe(Elevator) + 1, Speed);
Else Movetoframe(Elevator, Getcurframe(Elevator) - 1, Speed);
Stop;
Arrived: Settimer(Sleeptime); Stop;
End


I think the variables are self-explainitory..

Basically, this cog can handle ANY number of floors. You simply define the last frame (Num_floors), and itll do the rest.


If this isnt what you wanted, reply with a better request.


I didnt test it . . but it should work. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Agreed GBK, but they are for doors and other extremly simple *beep*!

There is no more simple door cog, then my "Universal door cog". It simply does not get any easier.


Unless, of course, you think you can make a level-wide-door controller any easier, be my guest.


On second thought, I could update that flag handling function... Bah, Ill do it later.

The "Universal door cog" isn't so universal, you can't open four doors that need to open together, but not have the door to your imedate right not open. Or different movespeeds and sleeptimes. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif] [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

You can have multiple copies of the cog running in a level...
