Kiwi:
Yes, I try to get right this effect.
Problem is when you remove health from the player onDamage is called again.
I just need help with this simple thing because I'm no scripter.

oh, i see now, so when they get hit, it triggers an inf loop?

Chrono:
I don't think .setDamageLevel calls onDamage

Kiwi:

--- Code: ---function Player::onDamage(%this,%obj,%delta)
{
Parent::onDamage(%this,%obj,%delta);
%currentDamage = %obj.getDamageLevel();
if(%delta > 0)
{
if(%obj.getState() !$= "Dead")
{
%obj.bleedSched1 = %obj.schedule(1000,setDamageLevel,%currentDamage+3);
%obj.bleedSched2 = %obj.schedule(2000,setDamageLevel,%currentDamage+2);
%obj.bleedSched3 = %obj.schedule(3000,setDamageLevel,%currentDamage+1);
}
}
}
--- End code ---
This has a similar effect, loops infinite.
Why can't you make setRepairRate negative?

It wasn't programmed that way

A simple way to do this would be as follows:

--- Code: ---function Player::bleed(%obj, %damage, %interval, %ticks, %sourceObj, %damageType)
{
for(%i = 1; %i <= %ticks; %i++)
{
%obj.schedule(%i * %interval, damage, %sourceObj, %obj.getPosition(), %damage / %ticks, %damageType);
}
}
--- End code ---

%obj is the player, %damage is the total damage done over the course of the effect, %interval is the time between each tick, %ticks is the total number of ticks, %sourceObj is the source of the damage, and %damageType is the damage type used to deal the damage. A sample usage would be:

%col.bleed(100, 1000, 10, %obj.sourceObject, $DamageType::Gun);

This would cause the player %col to bleed for 100 total damage of type $DamageType::Gun from %obj.sourceObject, ticking a total of 10 times, once every 1000 ms.
