----------------------------------- Mr. T Sun Jan 30, 2005 3:52 pm Delays ----------------------------------- How do you cancel a delay? ----------------------------------- Neo Sun Jan 30, 2005 3:59 pm ----------------------------------- What do you mean cancel? :? If you mean take out the delay while the program is running then you could put the delay inside an if statement. ----------------------------------- Mr. T Sun Jan 30, 2005 4:08 pm ----------------------------------- ya sorry, can u give me an example of using an if statement to stop a delay? ----------------------------------- basketball4ever Sun Jan 30, 2005 4:16 pm ----------------------------------- ya sorry, can u give me an example of using an if statement to stop a delay? hmm... why would you want a delay to stop. You can set the delay right... so why would you want it to stop while the program in running... can you give like a piece of code so i can see what you're trying to do ----------------------------------- person Sun Jan 30, 2005 4:25 pm ----------------------------------- u can probably do: if (something) then x := 0 end if delay (x) ----------------------------------- Mr. T Sun Jan 30, 2005 4:38 pm ----------------------------------- ya sorry, can u give me an example of using an if statement to stop a delay? can you give like a piece of code so i can see what you're trying to do delay (10) cls delay (0) ----------------------------------- basketball4ever Sun Jan 30, 2005 4:45 pm ----------------------------------- k ... so % all your code before that var num:int get num if num >10 then delay(10) %you don't need an else delay (0) cos... thats like :? :P end if that should work fine. ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sun Jan 30, 2005 4:51 pm ----------------------------------- Is this inside a loop? If so, chances are you should only have one delay. ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Mon Jan 31, 2005 5:33 pm ----------------------------------- How about this question: How would you let the user input something while a delay is running? ----------------------------------- Cervantes Mon Jan 31, 2005 5:50 pm ----------------------------------- You don't. A delay is like getch: it halts the program until it's done. So, while the delay is on, the program is halted. Thus, you can't be running an Input.KeyDown line while the delay is on. ----------------------------------- 1337_brad Mon Jan 31, 2005 6:31 pm But... ----------------------------------- But a get statement would do the trick... it would delay until the user inputs a value.. or if you need the delay set to a specific time you could have the get statement and then the delay like so: var theget : string put "enter something here" get theget Time.Delay(10) ----------------------------------- ssr Mon Jan 31, 2005 8:37 pm ----------------------------------- How about just hasch however, I got a question ok how would u like enter a cheat while the program is running like you can make teh program run but if u enter something, it wont show, but it will print do the cheat after the code is fully entered ----------------------------------- 1337_brad Mon Jan 31, 2005 9:23 pm You would have to... ----------------------------------- Do it with processes... and then fork them, so that the game, and the getcheat command can run at the same time... ----------------------------------- ssr Mon Jan 31, 2005 9:31 pm ----------------------------------- Do it with processes... and then fork them, so that the game, and the getcheat command can run at the same time... oh ya Thanx man, 1337_brad helped out a lot ----------------------------------- basketball4ever Mon Jan 31, 2005 10:41 pm ----------------------------------- Do it with processes... and then fork them, so that the game, and the getcheat command can run at the same time... oh ya Thanx man, 1337_brad helped out a lot do note that processes will cause alot of trouble.... you might wanna stay away from em... if i were you, i would just use a cheat menu... ----------------------------------- Bacchus Mon Jan 31, 2005 11:10 pm ----------------------------------- you could try something like this: proc d(time:int) var t:int:=Time.Elapsed loop exit when Time.Elapsed-t >= time %stick whatever else you want in here end loop end d dunno about that might work, who knows :P ----------------------------------- [Gandalf] Tue Feb 01, 2005 12:19 pm ----------------------------------- I don't know if you already know this, but you would also need something like this so that what the user types doesn't show up on the screen. setscreen("nocursor,noecho") ----------------------------------- Bacchus Tue Feb 01, 2005 3:54 pm ----------------------------------- you only need noecho if your using getch so that it wont show then
