Program.control
From AGI Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchThe program.control command changes the ego screen object control mode to program control instead of player control.
Syntax
program.control();
Remarks
When operating in program control mode, player input will not control ego. Instead, ego motion can be controlled just like any other screen object. Using the move.obj, move.obj.v or wander command on ego will also switch ego to program control mode automatically.
If ego is in motion when the program.control command is executed, ego will continue moving in its current direction.
The player.control command will restore normal player control over ego.
Possible Errors
None.
Example
Code:
<syntaxhighlight lang="agi"> program.control(); [ now player cannot control ego ... player.control(); [ player control is restored </syntaxhighlight>
