|
|
okok, I know Im new here, this being my first post, but theres something driving me absolutely INSANE.
I know VERY basic code, but Im trying to code something in GlovePIE for the wiimote, and I need a boolean variable.
How do I create a boolean variable in GlovePIE?
and after a value is set, how do I initiate a 'flip', or a switch between the current value and the opposite one?
sorry if this is the wrong place for this, just point me where if this is the case.

just write
| Code: | var.boolean = 0 //for false
var.boolean = 1 //for true |
GlovePIE is made so that you don't specify boolean, int, etc just write var.X where X is the name of the variable. You can make them go higher to 1 and it knows that it's a number. However, it uses 0 as false and 1 as true (so var.boolean = 0 is the same as writing var.boolean = false).

thats awesome, thanks.
by any chance, do you know how id create a way to flip the value?
like if i wanted to swap true for false or vice versa?

Well first thing: Don't declare variables. Just use them
In other words don't write
| Code: |
// declaration (don't do this)
var.boolean = false
// if statement 1
if wiimote.A and var.boolean = false then
Space = true
var.boolean = true
endif
// if statement 2
if wiimote.B and var.boolean = true then
Space = false
var.boolean = false
endif
|
GlovePIE will never make Space = false again, because as soon as var.boolean = true from if statement 1, the script will read your declaration and var.boolean will equal false. The scripts must be non linear.
So, instead write code like
| Code: | // if statement 1
if wiimote.A and var.boolean = false then
Space = true
var.boolean = true
endif
// if statement 2
if wiimote.B and var.boolean = true then
Space = false
var.boolean = false
endif |
Since the variables are automatically set to 0 (false or the number 0) by default when you press A on the wiimote, space will be pressed down, and then when you hit B on the wiimote, it'll be like you took your finger off the space bar.
So basically to flip a value, just create an two if statements where the conditions are that your boolean is true (in the first) and false (in the second). Then make the reult of calling one of those if statements be that the boolean is changed to true (if it was false) and false (if it was true).
Hope that helps.
