a question about player.cs
by Tim Lei · in Torque Game Engine · 05/16/2002 (2:15 am) · 3 replies
I've deleted the contents of the datablock in player.cs (under fps/data/shapes/player) which i believed was used for animation. However, the deletion didn't not affect the animation of the game. I still press the same keys and the bot still moves the same way. Would someone please tell me why? Thanks!

datablock TSShapeConstructor(PlayerDts)
{
baseShape = "./player.dts";
sequence0 = "./player_root.dsq root";
sequence2 = "./player_forward.dsq run";
sequence1 = "./player_back.dsq back";
sequence3 = "./player_side.dsq side";
sequence4 = "./player_lookde.dsq look";
sequence5 = "./player_head.dsq head";
sequence6 = "./player_fall.dsq fall";
sequence7 = "./player_land.dsq land";
sequence8 = "./player_jump.dsq jump";
sequence9 = "./player_diehead.dsq death1";
sequence10 = "./player_diechest.dsq death2";
sequence11 = "./player_dieback.dsq death3";
sequence12 = "./player_diesidelf.dsq death4";
sequence13 = "./player_diesidert.dsq death5";
sequence14 = "./player_dieleglf.dsq death6";
sequence15 = "./player_dielegrt.dsq death7";
sequence16 = "./player_dieslump.dsq death8";
sequence17 = "./player_dieknees.dsq death9";
sequence18 = "./player_dieforward.dsq death10";
sequence19 = "./player_diespin.dsq death11";
sequence20 = "./player_looksn.dsq looksn";
sequence21 = "./player_lookms.dsq lookms";
sequence22 = "./player_scoutroot.dsq scoutroot";
sequence23 = "./player_headside.dsq headside";
sequence24 = "./player_recoilde.dsq light_recoil";
sequence25 = "./player_sitting.dsq sitting";
sequence26 = "./player_celsalute.dsq celsalute";
sequence27 = "./player_celwave.dsq celwave";
sequence28 = "./player_standjump.dsq standjump";
sequence29 = "./player_looknw.dsq looknw";
};
basically i deleted all the contents in the datablock.. run the game.. and everything still works fine...it's counter intuitive to me because I've always thought that these are necessary to define player animation. Would you explain why eveything still works fine? Thanx for your help!
