%META:TOPICINFO{author="ElminI" date="1075502460" format="1.0" version="1.1"}% %META:TOPICPARENT{name="ZippyCharacterType"}% Alerts are simple messages from the Zippy engine to characters sent to notify them of events occuring in the game world. They are one-way interactions, and are implemented by calls to functions defined in the character type in the "alerts" sub-table. The following is a table of alerts, their meaning, and the parameters (excluding the ubiquitous "self" parameter) passed to the alert handling function:

Alert	Parameters	Meaning
spawn	none	The character has just been spawned (called after the constructor)
in_water	none	The character has just entered water
put_away	none	The character was just placed another character's inventory
taken_out	none	The character was just removed from another character's inventory
cleaned_up (not used)	none	The character has died, and is now being directed to "clean itself up"
dropped	none	The character was just dropped by another
grabbed	none	The character was just grabbed by another
used	none	The character was just "used," either by another (if it's a weapon or item) or by itself (as in unarmed attacks)
hit_ground	none	The character was in the air, and is now on the ground (never as a result of being dropped)
bumped	bumped_into: a character	The character collided with another character
blocked (not used)	none	The character ran into a passage that is blocked
healed (not used)	healed_by: a character	The character was healed by another
attacked (not used)	attacked_by: a character	The character was damaged by another
killed (not used)	attacked_by: a character	The character was killed by another
thrown	thrown_by: a character	The character was thrown by another
swipe	none	The character reached an AL or AR frame (see ?)
crushed	none	The character was crushed by a passage
passage_blocked	blocked_by: a passage	The character ran into a passage that was blocked
disaffirmed (not used)	none	?
particle_bumped	particle: either a particle type or a particle reference (see ZippyParticles) bumped_into: a character	A particle spawned by this character bumped into another character
particle_hitwater	particle: see ZippyParticles	A particle spawned by this character hit the water
particle_hitwall	particle: see ZippyParticles	A particle spawned by this character hit a wall
particle_hitground	particle: see ZippyParticles	A particle spawned by this character hit the ground
particle_timedout	particle: see ZippyParticles	A particle spawned by this character ran out of time
particle_lastframe	particle: see ZippyParticles	A particle spawned by this character reached the last frame of its animation
remove	none	The character will be removed from the game at the end of this update

Example:

The following example causes the character to begin a Notice action targeted at its Player with the extra argument being the character who bumped it. For more information on Players and Actions, see ZippyPlayers and ZippyActions.

register_type{
   -- ...
   alerts = {
      bumped = function (self, bumped_by)
         act(Basic.Notice, self, self.player, bumped_by)
      end
   }
}
