How about fixing mosaic()?

It's not something from previous V2, but it is handy, considering I'm told that Switch is buggy.

I dunno if it already exists in V2 or not (if so, it's not documented), but a means of changing the CHR associated with an entity would be nice (basically, an entity.CHR function), and probably very easy to add.

And also, a means of spawning and destroying entities within VC... i.e. in Forgotten Kings, I'm going to be using a Zelda-like screen-by-screen movement system, and each time you advance to a new screen, one to four enemies will be spawned, with chase distances set to 2 or 3. If you should collide with one of these enemies, an appropriate random battle will ensue. I can do this without the ability to spawn/destroy entities, but only if I have the ability to change their CHRs... so you see my dilemma! (:

...I think in one of the later versions of V2 that aen did, a ChangeCHR() function was added.

I just tried compiling it with WinV2, and it actually compiled. But I haven't tested it out on an actual entity to see if anything really happened. You can test it though. Here's the syntax:

ChangeCHR(int index, string chrname)

e.g. ChangeCHR(0,"hero.chr");

And like I said, this DID compile but I didn't test if it actually did something...

else if

So I don't think that elif is a big deal. I'm pretty sure that they will fix the switch when they make the new vc though.



TheGerf, not just any gerf.
