Would it be possible to create a timed maze in zc that covers, say, four screens?

let me elaborate.



Where:

A = The minigame's outer wall

B = The screen seperators

S = Start

F = Finish

You have to get from S to F via rooms 1,2,3 AND 4.

The catch is, there is a time limit. You have to get through all the rooms in a 60-second time frame.

The only problem, of course, is the fact that this last bit cannot be done.

could it be implemented in a script?

Eh. Just use a global register for the countdown (gd255, for just safety), and have an FFC running the script on all 4 screens.

[andrewmcd1]

O.k.

so can you explain HOW to do that and what the script would be?

[Limzo]

I could make the script for you blah blah blah....

Just give me a free 10 minutes. Would you like Link to die and have a game over if he doesn't make it to the end in time?

[andrewmcd1]

No, could I just have it so that he is warped out of the set of rooms and warped to another location?

[Limzo]

Possibly...

It's a bit out of my league, so I could perhaps make a script in which he dies, and then some kind sould could alter it just a little to fit your specific needs. However, I cannot make the script now (places to see, people to go.)

[Revfan9]

Heh...

CODE

_SETV gd255,3600
_QUIT

Put this script on the screen that leads to the maze (That has the door going into it, or the warp leading into it).

CODE

WAIT WAITFRAME
_COMPAREV gd255,-1
_GOTOMORE TIMESUP
_SUBV gd255,1
_GOTO WAIT
TIMESUP WARPR d0,d1
_QUIT

Put this one in all screens of the maze.
