Hi Claudio,
Thanks for the suggestion.
It somehow feels *wrong* to me. Not that it wouldn't work. But it's not
very scalable. My example is obviously a bit contrived. But imagine you
want to script a scenary. There might be something like 5 different actors
in play, all doing things in a pre-determined sequence. It feels kind of
odd to add a Delay action to wait for another actor (cocosnode) to finish
its action. Besides, talking about scalability, what if all of a sudden,
there is an action which speeds up a previous action. The Delay won't be
synchronized anymore.
I was looking at the Sequence_IntervalAction and was thinking about how the
actions get sequenced. What if now the layer or the scene containing the
different actors had an action which allowed to sequence actions with
different targets. Let's call this Sequence_Targets_IntervalAction You
could then write something like:
actions_sequence = [ MoveTo(sp2.position, 5) + Say("Where should I go ?",
3),
Say("Go to the bottom right corner", 3),
MoveTo(right_corner, 5)
]
scene.do(Sequence_Targets_IntervalAction(actions_sequence), target=(sp1,
sp2, sp1))
This action would take each action in the actions_sequence and assign the
corresponding targer to it. It would wait for the first action to complete
before moving on the next one.
It's just a thought. It might break other things. Obviously
Sequence_Targets_IntervalAction must have the same length of actions as
target.
Your thoughts?
Am I doing this too complicated?
Thanks for your help!
Daniel.
