I Need help with Ladders - Please. ( Stencyl 3.3.2 )

I am stuck. Can someone please help me.

I want to create a ladder in a platform game.  -  I am trying to use this...

http://www.stencyl.com/game/play/24823
" the Climb Behavior posted on StencylForge "

But I am getting this error...   ( I think this code is for an older version of Stencyl. ?? )
and Yes - I have created a 'region called ladder' - but I stll get this error...

ClimbLadder: scripts.Design_244_244_ClimbLadder has no field engine
   from scripts.Design_244_244_ClimbLadder
   line: 179
   columns: 4-23
ClimbLadder: scripts.Design_244_244_ClimbLadder has no field engine
   from scripts.Design_244_244_ClimbLadder
   line: 180
   columns: 11-30
ClimbLadder: You can't iterate on a Dynamic value, please specify Iterator or Iterable
   from scripts.Design_244_244_ClimbLadder
   line: 180
   columns: 11-30

I think this is the problem...

(hammer) Created:
( Code: )
_RegionList=new Array<Dynamic>();
_RegionState=new Array<Dynamic>();

I only have one region called " Ladder " - can anyone suggest how to fix?   

( Thanks in Advance... )

Simply insert your region into the region list.

Thank you for your quick reply.   I will try that now.   

Thanks !!     that has solved half of my problem... 

Now the error reads...

ClimbLadder: Unexpected !
   from scripts.Design_244_244_ClimbLadder
   line: 211
   columns: 26-27

I guess this is "_RegionState "   Any more idea's ?

Can't say without looking into the behaviour itself. Maybe later, when I can be online with my computer.

Hello TanyaBanana,

The behavior was made for earlier version of Stencyl.


In Update / Always code
where it says ‘this'
replace with:
Engine
So that it reads:

Code: [Select]

Engine.engine.regions

Also name all your regions 'Ladder' i.e. 'ladder1', 'ladder2' etc..

Hope that helps!

First it's in the "created" tab where you should replace "this" with "engine"
but after I fixed it I got this error with both the up_pressed and created tab in red
The error is:
ClimbLadder: Cannot access static field engine from a class instance
   from scripts.Design_272_272_ClimbLadder
   line: 179
   columns: 4-25

Hello mdotedot,

Thanks for your help, I did the changes, 'Created' tab, and I also get the same error as MMMhasseb

Please help, again - Thanks.

Hello TanyaBanana,

It is indeed the 'Created' event but I only needed to change the 'this' into Engine:

Code: [Select]

// if you don't make a new instance you can't push ..
_RegionList=new Array<Dynamic>();
_RegionState=new Array<Dynamic>();

 if(Engine.engine.regions != null){
  for(r in Engine.engine.regions){
// if name index Of ladder
if(r.name.toUpperCase().indexOf("LADDER") > -1){
          _RegionList.push(r);
          _RegionState.push(""+false);
}
  }
 }

No other change was needed.

Tested on build: 8471

Best regards from
M.E.

Thanks Again, I will try that now.

I'm using Mac Version, Build 8453...

It Works !! - it WORKS !!!  - So HAPPY !  Thank YOU!!

I removed the behavior and re-downloaded it.
I have a region called Ladder
I replaced this by engine (I copied mdotedot's )code but I got this error now:
ClimbLadder: Unexpected /
   from scripts.Design_271_271_ClimbLadder
   line: 175
   columns: 8-9 

Edit: It Worked!!  Thanks a lot

Double check if you have indeed the double // on the first line.
It is a comment and you need // for it to work!
(I edited my reply so that it has two /)
