The "vngen_scene_modify_direct" Function

Syntax

vngen_scene_modify_direct(id, x, y, z, xscale, yscale, rot);

Argument	Type	Description
id	real/string	The ID of the scene to modify (or keyword all for all scenes)
x	real	The horizontal position to display the scene, relative to the global offset
y	real	The vertical position to display the scene, relative to the global offset
z	real	The drawing depth of the scene, relative to other scenes only
xscale	real	The horizontal scale multiplier, where 1 is default
yscale	real	The vertical scale multiplier, where 1 is default
rot	real	The scene rotation, in degrees

Description

Applies a new position, orientation, and scale to the input entity ID directly, outside the qScript loop.

All modifications made with this script are permanent and will persist until another modification is performed.

As this script is not an action, care should be taken in deciding when and where to execute it. If both *_modify and *_modify_direct scripts are executed together, whichever is run last will override the other.

Example

var mx = window_mouse_get_x() - (window_get_width()*0.5);

var my = window_mouse_get_y() - (window_get_height()*0.5);

if (mouse_check_button(mb_left)) {

vngen_scene_modify_direct("bg", mx, my, 0, 1, 1, 0);

}

This will map the scene to the mouse, allowing the user to click and drag the scene to a new position on the screen.
