That's why I asked about to link boundaries to a block if this possible and how I can do this :S
I mean on an earlier post or thread not sure wich one :S

I have that:

Code: Select all

timerApi.setSecondsLeft(timerApi.getSecondsLeft()-3)

and I want to reduce time every time that player touches ice block.

for _,iceblock in pairs(Block.get(put_Ice_block_id_here) do
	if (iceblock.collidesWith(player) > 0) then
		--do stuff
	end
end

You can use (Block.collidesWith(player) > 0) to check if a player touches a block.

Code: Select all

for _,iceblock in pairs(Block.get(put_Ice_block_id_here) do
	if (iceblock.collidesWith(player) > 0) then
		--do stuff
	end
end

You need: http://wohlsoft.ru/pgewiki/Block_%28class%29 and http://wohlsoft.ru/pgewiki/LunaLua_glob ... _functions

Now, this would be put into onTick or onLoop.
If you don't want to reduce the timer every frame the player touches the block, you'll need to remember which block the player has touched.
I don't think blocks have some kind of unique id for you to access, so you'd have to get some other unique information, such as the block's x and y coordinates and save them in a table. (doesn't work with moving layers)
Or if you have a very limited number of blocks, you could put each block on their own layer and use the layer to identify the block.

Or you create "invincibility frames" in which your timer cannot be reduced which lasts X ticks after touching an ice block.

Or do you mean ice blocks as in NPCs turned into ice?

function onLoopSection0()
	local odlicz=0
	Text.print(odlicz,0,0)
	for e,f in pairs(Block.get(633)) do
		if (f.collidesWith(player)> 0) then
			if odlicz == 0 then 
				timerApi.setSecondsLeft(timerApi.getSecondsLeft()-3)
				odlicz=300
			else
				odlicz=odlicz-1
			end
		end
	end
end

object:function() is just syntactic sugar for object.function(object), and collidesWith requires two parameters (the block, and the player).

Code: Select all

for e,f in pairs(Block.get(633)) do

As a generation recommendation: e,f is your (key, value) pair. Typically written as "k, v".
If you do not use the 'key' in your code, it is common to store it in "_" for it, so: for _,v in pairs(.....) do
Then, everyone who reads your code knows that they can ignore that variable.
As for "f", you should just name it "v" for value, or name it after the type of object you are working with, in this case "block" or "iceblock".

local bloki = { 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 263, 264, 265, 266, 273, 299, 300, 301, 302, 303, 304, 309, 310, 616, 617, 618, 619 }
timerApi = loadAPI("leveltimer");
local particles = API.load("particles");
local odlicz = 0

function onTick()
	for a, b in pairs (Block.get(bloki)) do
		b.slippery = true
	end
	for c, d in pairs (NPC.get(9,-1)) do
		d.id = 185
	end
end

function onLoad()  
	timerApi.setSecondsLeft(300);
	timerApi.setTimerState(true);
end

local effect = particles.Emitter(0, 0, Misc.resolveFile("particles\\p_snow.ini"));
effect:AttachToCamera(Camera.get()[1]);
 
function onCameraUpdate()
    effect:Draw();
end


function onLoopSection0()
	Text.print(odlicz,0,0)
	for e,f in pairs(Block.get(633)) do
		if (f:collidesWith(player) > 0) then
			if odlicz == 0 then 
				timerApi.setSecondsLeft(timerApi.getSecondsLeft()-5)
				odlicz=50
			else
				odlicz=odlicz-1
			end
		end
	end
end
