Help with Background Controllers

[Scorcher]

I'm having problems with the Background controller in my stage. I want to have Waterdrops falling from the stage ceiling and let them burst on the floor. After a lot of failing i figured out the correct sequence and timing now, but it works only one time, even though a loopcount has been set. If i force the position of the Waterdrop back with 'PosSet' the animation gets out of sync.

Here's the code:

Code Select Expand


[BG Drop]
type = anim
start = 0, 0
actionno = 14
layerno = 1
ID = 1

[BGCtrlDef Drop]
looptime = 220
ctrlID = 1

[BGCtrl 1, Move]
type = VelSet
time = 0, 110
x = 0
y = 2

[BGCtrl 1, Stop]
type = VelSet
time = 110
x = 0
y = 0

[BGCtrl 1, Change]
type = Anim
time = 110
value = 15

[Begin Action 14]
13,0,0,0,80
13,0,0,0,240

[Begin Action 15]
13,1,0,0,8
13,2,0,0,8
13,3,0,0,8
13,4,0,0,240

I COULD be very wrong. but maybe its just a mugen error which has colliding information?

velsets and animations play from 0 ~ 110.
and a new velset and animation take over at 110.

maybe because both have the same end/begining time, its conflicting.

try 0 , 109
and time = 110

its a tick notice but who knows maybe it'll work?

time = 0, 110
No, That 110 in there isn't the problem, because it has no purpose or effect in the controller. 
It can be removed, since it's not doing anything. 

If i force the position of the Waterdrop back with 'PosSet' the animation gets out of sync.

You need to do that AND add a control to change the animation back to 14 at the beginning of the loop too. 
Both the PosSet and Anim to 14 ctrls should have time = 0. 

If you need a reference stage, MBAA Cherry Blossoms REMIX By GLB & XTRM, has BGCtrl somewhat similar to what you're trying to accomplish.  The cherry blossom petals fall, hit the ground, change to a fade animation, then get put back at the top of the stage to fall again in a loop.

It works now. Thank you very much.
