false problem

[FuzzyLogicBrain]

if statements seem to have trouble with boolean. or am i doing it wrong?

Code: Select all

{scene.my.blah==false}?{e.this/geom.color=e.other/geom.color}:{}

[TC42]

That is why I use the original boolean-- 1s and 0s

Also, use color=e.geom.color, not e.this.color=e.geom.color

try using := instead of ==

Generally when an if code dosnt work, that is the first thing i check as i dont understand the ='s and havnt got round to learning them

hmmm..

1s and 0s! duh i do that too what if it was the other object, not this object?

You want this:

Code: Select all

{!scene.my.blah} ? {color = e.other.color} : {}

a = 2 means "Set the value of a equal to 2."
a == 2 means "Check if the value of a is 2."
a := 2 means "Create a new variable with identifier a and value 2."

Thanks for telling me what they mean

And as you can tell, i havnt really learn much thyme

I'm actually not completely sure about :=, but you use friction := 2 in spawning, so I made a guess.

[FuzzyLogicBrain]

but whats the (!) about?¡

[Someone Else]

When put right before a boolean, ! means "not".

{collideWater} ? {} : {} means "if collideWater is true..."
{!collideWater} ? {} : {} means "if collideWater is not true, or false..."

The full list of IF operators:

• == means "If the values are equal"
• != means "If the values are not equal"
• >= means "If the first value is greater than or equal"
• <= means "If the first value is less than or equal"
• > means "If the first value is greater"
• < means "If the first value is less"

This has been explained so many times (mostly by me). := is ONLY used in spawning (well, creating new variables, actually, but that's what you do when you spawn something).

Oh snap! Thanks for the explantion!
{!badExplantion}?{compliment}:{troll}

[Someone Else]

Thanks... though, actually, you want something more like

Code: Select all

scene.my.reply = {!scene.my.badExplanation} ? {"compliment"} : {"troll"}

[FuzzyLogicBrain]

O-o Lol? Dude are you a perfectionist?

[Someone Else]

Yes.

But this is off-topic.

[FuzzyLogicBrain]

no, this....... IS.......... SPAAARRRTAAA! yeah, so it is.
