[request] Help with sprites during cinemas...

So, basically, my character keeps dissapearing during cinemas in my game. I have multiple abilites that change the characters appearance, so I have a script: scrVarDeclare() that says what all of the sprites are at each position:

Code: [Select]

if global.player="normal"{
left=sprplayerleft;
right=sprplayerright;
jumpright=sprplayerjumpright;
jumpleft=sprplayerjumpleft;
crouchleft=sprcrouchleft;
crouchright=sprcrouchright
climb=sprplayerclimb
climbstill=sprplayerclimbstill
standleft=sprplayerstandleft;
standright=sprplayerstandright;
leftstill=sprplayerstillleft;
rightstill=sprplayerstillright;
}
if global.player="super"{
left=sprSplayerleft;
right=sprSplayerright;
jumpright=sprSplayerjumpright;
jumpleft=sprSplayerjumpleft;
crouchleft=sprScrouchleft
crouchright=sprScrouchright
climb=sprSplayerclimb
climbstill=sprSplayerclimbstill
standleft=sprSplayerstandleft;
standright=sprSplayerstandright;
leftstill=sprSplayerstillleft;
rightstill=sprSplayerstillright;
}
etc...
 
And then I would have something like:

Code: [Select]

//for the holding left event
sprite_index=leftinstead of:

Code: [Select]

//for the holding left event
sprite_index=sprplayerleft
I then put the scrVarDeclare() into my step event.

The problem is that I have in cinemas and such:

Code: [Select]

global.wait=true;
objplayer.sprite_index=standleft;
I think the problem has to do with me disabling the drawing of some sprites during the step event, so that he doesn't change the sprite from what I want it to be during the cinema.

Hopefully, this isn't too confusing,but can someone can help me?

Grimace is the demiurge, the creator. From him all things in McDonaldland have sprung. He is not a sin, he's not a menu item, he's just Grimace. He exists. He rolls his lidless eyes and flaps his lipless mouth, formless and terrible, a protean idiot thing from the depths of pre-history.

The actions for obj_player in the step event after the scrVarDeclare() are based on the condition that global.wait = false, right?

Correct.

Meh, well try changing this:

Code: [Select]

objplayer.sprite_index=standleft
to this:

Code: [Select]

with (objplayer)
{
  sprite_index = standleft
}
or try something like:

Code: [Select]

objplayer.sprite_index = objplayer.standleft
