Objects in MPUZ have a list of variables that are used to store various information. Following is a list of those variables, which are generally accessed like selector.sysid:
Variables and Object Structure
Note: the values of these variables are examples only.
object = {
sysid = 1,
objid = "MP_OBJECT",
linkid = 0,
--
x = 0,
y = 0,
xleft = 0,
xright = 0,
ytop = 0,
ybottom = 0,
xscale = 0,
yscale = 0,
angle = 0,
direction = 0,
alpha = 0,
prop1 = "",
prop2 = "",
prop3 = "",
prop4 = "",
prop5 = "",
sys = { },
cust = { },
plugin = { },
}
These are not the only variables which the engine may store in an object, but these are so-called "standard" variables which all objects will have.
Within these tutorials, a subtable cust will be used to store custom variables that are unique to a single object, such as me.cust.health. MPUZ itself may store various other variables in the sys subtable; which variables these are depends upon certain aspects of the object code (such as variables used by plugins). Attached plugins are stored as keys in the plugin subtable, with their current status as their value.
Events
Triggered
- onCreate( OBJECT caller ): called after the object is first created. For any object, this is the first event ever to be called. caller is a reference to the object that called this event, or a reference to the Null Object if something other than another object called the event.
- onDestroy( OBJECT caller ): called before the object is destroyed. This is always the last event called for objects. caller is, again, the calling object, or the Null Object.
