MapAnimType

MapAnimType MapIndex, AnimIndex, Mode

Parameters:     MapIndex = The Index of the Map that you wish to create an anim within     AnimIndex = The Index of the tile animation to create     Mode = The animation mode os this animation

Returns: NONE

MapAnimType sets the animation type of a block animation. The animation type is used when animations are updated. It allows each animation to use it's own basic logic, from stepping through the frames forward, backwards, forward-once, backward-once, Ping pong forward, Ping Pong backwards or remaining idle.       Mode Constants:       PBMapAnim_Idle = Animation is Idle       PBMapAnim_Forward = Animate forward       PBMapAnim_BackWard = Animate backward       PBMapAnim_ForwardOnce= Animate forward once (stops after reaching the end of the anim)       PBMapAnim_BackwardOnce = Animate backward once (stops after reaching the end of the anim)       PBMapAnim_PingPongForward = Ping Pong Animation forward       PBMapAnim_PingPongBackward = Ping Pong Animation Backward FACTS:       * Animations Type default to a mode PBMapAnim_Forward.       * Each time a Animation frame rate is changed using MapAnimFrameRate the current Frame rate is also set. Mini Tutorial:       This example shows the hands on creation of a Map, and the basic creation of a map Anims. It then displays the anims information for you. Which should give you a feel, for how the block animation commands are used together.    ; ============================== ; Part 1 - Create Map ; ==============================    ; Set Width & Height variables of the Map tiles   TileWidth=16   Tileheight=16       ; Create a map with provision for 5 levels   MyMap=NewMap(5)    ; ============================== ; Part 2 - Create Tile Animations ; ==============================    ; Create Room for 50 Block Animations with this map   MapAnimQuantity MyMap,5    ; Create Anim 1,with space for 10 frames in the anim   CreateMapAnim MyMap,1,10    ; Poke some frames into the Anim 1   For lp=0 To 10      PokeMapAnim MyMap,1,lp,10+lp   Next    ; Set the frame rate   MapAnimFrameRate MyMap,1,3   MapAnimCurrentFrameRate MyMap,1,2    ; Set Animation Type  set anim 1 to backwards (mode 2)   MapAnimType MyMap,1,pbmapanim_backward       ; ============================== ; Part 3 - Display the Anim Information ; ==============================      Print "Number Of Animations in Map:"+Str$(GetMapAnims(MyMap))    ; List the Info about each Anim   For Anim=0 To GetMapAnims(MyMap)      If  GetMapAnimStatus(MyMap,Anim)=true         Print "Anim #"+Str$(anim)         f$=""         Print "Frames:"+Str$(GetMapAnimSize(mymap,anim))         Print "Frame Rate:"+Str$(GetMapAnimFrameRate(mymap,anim))         Print "Current Frame Rate:"+Str$(GetMapAnimCurrentFrameRate(mymap,anim))         Print "Anim Type:"+Str$(GetMapAnimType(mymap,anim))         For Frames=0 To GetMapAnimSize(myMap,Anim)            f$=f$+Str$(PeekMapAnim(myMap,anim,Frames))+","         Next         Print "Tile Sequence:"+TrimRight$(F$,",")      Else         Print "Anim #"+Str$(anim)+" Doesn't exist"      EndIf      Print ""   Next    ; Display the screen and loop back to the DO   Sync   WaitKey       This example would output.      Anim #0 Doesn't exist      Anim #1   Frames:10   Frame Rate:3   Current Frame Rate:2   Anim Type:2   Tile Sequence:10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20      Anim #2 Doesn't exist      Anim #3 Doesn't exist      Anim #4 Doesn't exist      Anim #5 Doesn't exist
