Detecting an actor's image

8BitMichael

Is there any way to detect what image an actor is displaying while in the middle of an animation? For instance, if an actor is displaying "Image1.png" while colliding with the floor, destroy that actor. Thanks

You MIGHT be able to, it could be tricky in the middle of an animation. You do have access to the Image attribute of an Actor...

Rule
When all conditions are valid
self.Image = "image1.png"
-----[do something]

That is how it would work. But it might be too fast to catch it during an animation. You can try it.

You also might want to try breaking your animation up into chunks with Timers, something like this:

Animate

Timer After 0.2 seconds
-----Animate

Timer After 0.4 seconds
-----Animate

That way you can keep better track of what state the Actor is in.

It was a pretty slow animation, so it worked. Thanks
