Ok, its me again. I have a question or two. Ok, I am making a game called Chippie Pets. I wanna know this! How do you make something loop forever??

set time += 1
if(time = 24)
set time = 1
world<<"The time is now [time]:00!"
usr.Hunger -= 1
usr.Thirst -= 1
if(usr.Hunger = 0)
usr.Strength -= 2
if(usr.Thirst = 0)
usr.Strength -= 2

HOW DO I MAKE IT LOOP!?!
You can tell its an RP code.
Second. is this correct?

usr.Strength -= 2
if(usr.Hunger = 0 for 3000//Is that the correct way for saying if user hunger is 0 for 300 seconds?
del(src)
world<< "[usr] dies of hunger!"
if(usr.Thirst = 0 for 3000
del (src)
world<< "[usr] dies of thirst"

Sorry, GTG!

P.S. I know a lawyer! So don't insult my game!

so.......


for set time += 1
if(time = 24)
set time = 1
world<<"The time is now [time]:00!"
usr.Hunger -= 1
usr.Thirst -= 1
if(usr.Hunger = 0)
usr.Strength -= 2
if(usr.Thirst = 0)
usr.Strength -= 2

In response to Watabou
close but i think
for
set time += 1
if(time = 24)
set time = 1
world<<"The time is now [time]:00!"
usr.Hunger -= 1
usr.Thirst -= 1
if(usr.Hunger = 0)
usr.Strength -= 2
if(usr.Thirst = 0)
usr.Strength -= 2
more like that

Scoobert, I think that worked. Now I have this error!

loading Chippie Pets.dme
Foods.dm:4:error: missing condition

Chippie Pets.dmb - 1 error, 0 warnings (double-click on an error to jump to it)

Foods.dm:4: is this:
set time = 1
so. uhmm how do I fix it?

In response to Watabou
set isn't used to set vars you just need varname = value.

In response to Nadrew
Ok Nadrew! NOW I GOT INCONSISTENT INDENTATION!
Feb 27 2002, 5:26 pm
In response to Watabou
That means you need to indent to look up for because Scoobert doesn't know it's a proc.
Feb 27 2002, 5:27 pm
In response to Nadrew
Ok. Now its still a missing condition!
Feb 27 2002, 5:27 pm
In response to Watabou
Which line?

In response to Nadrew
mob/var/time = 12

for
time = 1
if(time = 24)
time += 1
world<<"The time is now [time]:00!"
usr.Hunger -= 1
usr.Thirst -= 1
if(usr.Hunger = 0)
usr.Strength -= 2
if(usr.Thirst = 0)
usr.Strength -= 2

You're still using for wrong, and it should be if(conditionone == conditiontwo)

In response to Nadrew
he he i just read the for thing in another post today and saw this and i thought it would aplay(and it does) but im not clear how to use for. Its one of thouse oddball proc like !, they mess with my head.
Feb 27 2002, 5:31 pm
In response to Nadrew
ok

time == 1

izzat good? It still wont work!
Feb 27 2002, 5:33 pm
In response to Watabou
Nope, you're getting the error from your if() proc.
Feb 27 2002, 5:33 pm
In response to Watabou
all you if's have 2 = in them.

In response to Nadrew
Can you just right down the complete code FIXED? So we dont flood the entire Forum with MY thingymajiggy?! :D
Feb 27 2002, 5:38 pm
In response to Watabou
No but I'll give you some hints:

mob/proc/loopedone()
    var/loop = 1
    world << "Looped!"
    while(loop)//while loop is one
        src.somevar +=1//do this

client/New()
    mob.loopedone()

I have no Idea What you just said Double D!
I dont need help for a loop! I need help to fix the bug!

Your first post stated you needed help looping things, I don't recall seeing anything about a "bug".
