# ** GW Animated Battlebacks + New Features

# May 22, 2010
#
# This screipt allows battlebacks to be animated (no, its not like Moghunter's
# system which moves). They are actually animated, by individual frames.
#
# USAGE
# Before each battle, you establish the parameters you want for the battleback.
#
# Use the call script command: animated_bb_on(speed, frames, opacity_
# * Opacity can be omitted as it is defaulted to a full 255 solid setting
#
# To turn off the animated battleback layer, use: animated_bb_off
#
# NEVER set a speed value to 0 or below.
#
# UPPER LAYER
# If you add a top layer to the battleback, the image will be above the heroes.
#
# To set a top layer, use the code: upper_bb_on(speed, frames, opacity)
#
# If the image is not moving, just call: upper_bb_on
#
# To turn off the upper battleback layer, use: upper_bb_off
#
# Upper layers should have the suffixes "UP" and 'frame' followed by
# each other. IF, for example, it is an image to be shown above the heroes
# and has three frames of animations, they must be named as follows
# "CastleUP1" "CastleUP2" "CastleUp3"

It was then, I realized something... The error says that it cannot find... "bb_frames=", not "bb_frames".
Something very strange had occurred here. For if you look at the script I supplied, I added spaces between any instance of the bb_frames variable and any ('=') equal sign.
And line 149?

Do you have a test demo of some sort you can upload so we can see what's happening?

Or you just type that stuff yourself just like I did.
That's why I stopped getting those weird errors. Then the division by zero errors showed up...
Anyway, I set the required values to 1 and now it seems to be working normally.
RE: GW Animated Battle backs Patch for Atoa ACBS - Solitaire - 10-17-2024
Again, you guys reply too speedily for me
Also, wait wait... Am I supposed to always apply an upper layer?
Is that what's been hitching things up?!
RE: GW Animated Battle backs Patch for Atoa ACBS - DerVVulfman - 10-17-2024
Always use an upper layer? I certainly hope not. That would be unwise for a code developer to force the end-user to use extra features undesired. I mean, you could set up a transparent upper-level background, but that would be wasteful.
However, my concern is with why you received an error that shouldn't exist.

Well, based on how GW crafted the script... Yes, you have to. (10-17-2024, 03:31 AM)DerVVulfman Wrote: Always use an upper layer? I certainly hope not.

Who said you had deleted all of those blank, invisible, non-printable characters?
They're like coding
monsters! 
They always find a way to survive!In my experience you can't do anything about it except for typing all the data yourself.
And yes, it's tiresome.

Alrighty, now I tried it out on a clean demo of the Atoa system instead (without my stuff in it, totally clean), I first was able to enter battle without it animating, but once I did the script call before battle, and specified the frames, speed, it gave me the same error again at line 75. I am very confused
I'll attach that one hereSURELY I must be mistaking something here (my brain must not be running at full capacity!)
Also, I didn't know where to include this, but I'll just note it here. Before the line 75 error started again, it started looking for a file with "0000" instead of just "000" which I don't know if it's supposed to do that, but I just duped one of the other ones and put it in the folder:
![[Image: battlebacksfolder.png]](https://i.postimg.cc/7L8kDkdM/battlebacksfolder.png)
Thanks again for your help and patience, guys!
