character walks to an object from a gui button

[barefoot]

Hi

I was wondering if its possible to have main character walk to an object from a gui button click?

EG
When you click 'Walk to Bridge' gui button for example the character walks to the bridge (object)..

Can AGS determine xy for an object and have the char go there?

I have done a search but to no avail...

cheers

Um, yes.

cEgo.Walk(oObject.X, oObject.Y);

If you had typed "object" in the index search box of the manual, you would've immediately found your answer. Also, there is nothing whose coordinates can't be get. If AGS couldn't handle such simple stuff, I'd switch the engine.

To be totally sure that you understand Matti's response, you can call that command from within the GUI Button's OnClick event handler:

Code: ags

function btnWalk_OnClick(GUIControl *control, MouseButton button)
{
  if (player.Room == 4)
  {
    player.Walk(object[3].X, object[3].Y);
  }
}

Okay, well I'm glad you got it sorted out. Just the way it came across (to me) was that Matti gave you an answer and you just immediately shot him down saying you know a better way. Ah well.
