The private functions seem to have to be of the "void" type though. My code

PHP Code: (Select All)

    private string GetOtherEnt(string sCurrentEnt)
    {
        if(sCurrentEnt == Ent1.sEntity) return Ent2.sEntity;
        else return Ent1.sEntity;
    }
    
    private string GetAttachedTo(string sAttachedEnt)
    {
        if(sAttachedEnt == Ent1.sAttachedEntity) return Ent1.sEntity;
        else return Ent2.sEntity;
    }
    
    private int ABS(int i)
    {
        if(i <= 0) return (-1 * i);
        else return i;
    } 


gives me 3 "ERR : Can't return value when return type is 'void'" messages when I try to run it in game. I suppose I could get around this by using reference parameters but I'd rather just do it normally...

Also, the bridges seem to move up and down at different speeds - does anybody know why?

Well other than the question I had before, my problem with private functions, and the last question stated above, my solution is completely done. It provides a "BalanceSystm" module that allows the programmer to implement a balance system with any two vertical move objects by adding only 3 lines of code (also provided they have the move entities are the same and that the user provides another invisible entity similar to the one Apjjm provided for the challenge named "<MoveEntName>Collider").

There are a couple of limitations (ie it can only detect one kind of weight, etc.), but other than that it's completely portable.
