Summary

This module contains methods controlling the player.

Instances

The first player can be accessed using Tux, or sector.Tux from the console. All following players (2nd, 3rd, etc...) can be accessed by Tux{index}. For example, to access the 2nd player, use Tux1 (or sector.Tux1 from the console).

Inheritance

This class inherits functions and variables from the following base classes:

Methods

Method	Explanation
`void use_scripting_controller(bool enable)`	Uses a scriptable controller for all user input (or restores controls).
`void do_scripting_controller(string control, bool pressed)`	Instructs the scriptable controller to press or release a button. `control` - Can be “left”, “right”, “up”, “down”, “jump”, “action”, “start”, “escape”, “menu-select”, “menu-select-space”, “menu-back”, “remove”, “cheat-menu”, “debug-menu”, “console”, “peek-left”, “peek-right”, “peek-up” or “peek-down”.
`void kill(bool completely)`	Hurts Tux. `completely` - If true, he will be killed even if he had "grow" or a superior bonus.
`bool add_bonus(string bonus)`	Gives Tux the specified bonus unless Tux’s current bonus is superior. `bonus` - Can be "grow", "fireflower", "iceflower", "airflower" or "earthflower" at the moment.
`bool set_bonus(string bonus)`	Gives Tux the specified bonus. `bonus` - Can be "grow", "fireflower", "iceflower", "airflower" or "earthflower" at the moment.
`string get_bonus()`	Returns Tux's current bonus.
`void add_coins(int count)`	Gives the player a number of coins.
`int get_coins()`	Returns the number of coins the player currently has.
`void kick()`	Start kick animation.
`string get_action()`	Gets the player's current action/animation.
`void do_cheer()`	Play cheer animation.
`void do_duck()`	Makes Tux duck down, if possible.
`void do_standup()`	Makes Tux stand back up, if possible.
`void do_standup()`	Makes Tux stand back up, if possible.
`void do_backflip()`	Makes Tux do a backflip, if possible.
`void do_jump(float yspeed)`	Makes Tux jump in the air, if possible. `yspeed` - Sensible values are negative - unless we want to jump into the ground of course.
`float get_velocity_x()`	Returns Tux’s velocity in X direction.
`float get_velocity_y()`	Returns Tux’s velocity in Y direction.
`void set_velocity(float x, float y)`	Sets the velocity of the player to a programmable/variable speed. `x` - The speed Tux will move on the x axis. `y` - The speed Tux will move on the y axis.
`void set_visible(bool visible)`	Set Tux visible or invisible.
`bool get_visible()`	Returns `true` if Tux is currently visible (has not been set invisible by the `set_visible()` method).
`bool has_grabbed(string name)`	Returns whether the player is carrying a certain object. `name` - Name of the portable object to check for.
`void set_ghost_mode(bool enable)`	Switches ghost mode on/off.
`bool get_ghost_mode()`	Returns whether ghost mode is currently enabled.
`void trigger_sequence(string sequence_name)`	Orders the current `GameSession` to start a sequence. `sequence_name` - One of “stoptux”, “endsequence” or “fireworks”.
`void activate()`	Give control back to user/scripting.
`void deactivate()`	Deactivate user/scripting input for Tux.
`bool get_input_pressed(string input)`	Gets whether the current input on the keyboard/controller/touchpad has been pressed. `input` - Can be “left”, “right”, “up”, “down”, “jump”, “action”, "item", “start”, “escape”, “menu-select”, “menu-select-space”, “menu-back”, “remove”, “cheat-menu”, “debug-menu”, “console”, “peek-left”, “peek-right”, “peek-up” or “peek-down”.
`bool get_input_held(string input)`	Gets whether the current input on the keyboard/controller/touchpad is being held. `input` - Valid values are listed above.
`bool get_input_released(string input)`	Gets whether the current input on the keyboard/controller/touchpad has been released. `input` - Valid values are listed above.
`void walk(float speed)`	Makes Tux walk.
`void set_dir(bool right)`	Face Tux in the proper direction. `right` - Set to `true` to make Tux face right, `false` to face left.
`void eject_item_pocket()`	Ejects the item in the player's Item Pocket.
`int get_item_pocket()`	Returns the item currently in the player's Item Pocket as a `BONUS` enum value.
`void set_item_pocket()`	Ejects the item in the player's Item Pocket.

Variables

Variable	Explanation
`bool visible`	Determines whether Tux is visible.

Constants

None.
