WAC tutorial

[Navigator]

Where can I find a tutorial on WAC files ? Like what are all the functions like chain(), groupdead(), ssndead() and how these work together.

you can go here my good friend.

this is Dave61's site.

This is the WAC list for DFX1. ALL of these commands work in DFX2 and the new commands for DFX2 have been added to the list. everything there is to know about the WAC is in that list.


Have fun!

I have reviewed dave61's page and there is a lot of info, but one thing I did not find was the defintion of chain(), although there are examples of how to use it, exactly what does it mean ?

What the chain command does is, it ties itself to a wac command that is directly above it and performs an action (in the seconds inserted) after the previous WAC command.

For example :

if ssnarea(10000,1) and never() then // player in area 1
wave(" wave here")
endif

if chain(15) and never() then
wave(" wave here ")
endif


What this example will do is ... when the player enters area #1 the first wave will play, then 15 seconds later (after the first WAC command has executed) the CHAIN wave will play.

Thanks dave61. That makes sense. I'll work through a few scenarios.
