How to set a new object point (and angle/alignment) via lua?

#1, by marvelSunday, 17. September 2017, 15:15 3 years ago

Hey guys,
I have a situation here where the character should not walk all around an object to comment it. So I want to adjust the foot point and also the alignment if the character stands behind (instead of before) an object. So I plan to start a lua command if he reaches a specific object area,

Does anybody know how to set a new object point and the angle/alignment) via lua?

game.CurrentCharacter.CharacterDestination = {x = 500, y = 500}

wait until character stops
align character

You should probably use the action part for checking the characters current direction, if that's something you need to check.

Sory, I believe this is a misunderstanding - or I don't understand what you mean with that. How can I give an object - for example an object named "chair" - a different object point and a new alignment angle?

These are not scriptable. So maybe these get lost after saving.
But if you use them directly it should work
Objects["myobject"].ObjectDirection = 45 --integer ( degrees ) Objects["myobject"].ObjectPosition = {x=100,y=300} --coordinates

1 2
you could also use the left click (immediate) and check if the character is above Y and then deside to send hin below or above the object.

Just tested, it seems that these changes are permanent and they even get saved
