With this function you can dynamically add a script function to Timelines at any given "moment" within that time line, where a "moment" is the equivalent of one game tick (or step).
In this way you can create a new time line using the timeline_add function and add different behaviours at any point, or simply modify a previously created time line resource with new behaviours. Note that the function cannot require any additional arguments when using this function, and if you use it to modify a Timeline asset present in the Asset Browser, then all instances that use this timeline will be affected, and the change will last until the end of the game (calling game_restart will not reset the change either).
timeline_moment_add_script(ind, step, script);
Argument | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
ind | Timeline Asset | The index of the timeline to add a moment to. |
step | Real | The moment (step) to add to. |
script | Script Function | The index of the script function to add into the moment. |
N/A
global.tl = timeline_add();
var i = game_get_speed(gamespeed_fps) * 60;
repeat(3)
{
timeline_moment_add_script(global.tl, i, choose(Attack_1, Attack_2, Attack_3);
i += game_get_speed(gamespeed_fps) * 60;
}
The above code will create a new time line and store its index in the variable global.tl. It will then add three scripts to the time line, chosen at random, at one minute intervals.
