Switching between players

[hunterja...@gmail.com]

Can someone post a rule that shows how to switch controls between 2 players?

[Alex Baines]

Here, I made a simple example for switching between 2 players:

Basically it puts an Inactive object on the player you're not
controlling, and stops any players marked inactive from moving.

There might be a better way of doing it, this is just what came to mind.

Hey this is really good but what happens if you have two different sprites/characters? How do you just swap control and not swap the sprites?

It’s probably easiest if you have two different objects for active and inactive players. You can make them look the same if you want, but I think a visual cue is nice.

See the Heroes of Sokoban games for an example, e.g.:

Or, down to a near-minimum:

Super useful thanks Chris!

For a much more complex system of up to 3 players look at "Heroes of Sokoban".

Ok well... I tried to answer this topic as an exercise, others have published much better answers I guess, but here is my little puzzle (exercise about player switching and mass moving) : http://www.puzzlescript.net/play.html?p=dcb2432bd3a0fa1be56d

As I discover this, well it really is simple and fun to prototype stuff with puzzlescript! hurray!
