Tween Module

Version 1.1

Created by Edmundo Ruiz (edmundo@edmundito.com)
Additional scripting by Tzach Shabtay

This module can be used to create programatic animations. It supports most of the ags systems. It allows these effects to be blocking, non blocking, or loop them, and it has acceleration/deceleration timing functions.

Note that the script syntax differs a bit between AGS 3.x and AGS 2.x, which will be noted in this documentation. You can also make the AGS 2.x syntax also available in AGS 3.x by commenting out line 102 in the module script header, in case that you are porting your game to AGS 3.x and have written functions using Tween.

Enumerated types

TweenTiming

enum TweenTiming {
  eLinearTween,
  eEaseInTween,
  eEaseOutTween, 
  eEaseInEaseOutTween
};

Used to set the timing of the tween, whether it's just a linear interpolation, one that only accelerates when it starts, one that only decelerates when it ends, or both accelerates at start and decelerates at end.

TweenStyle

enum TweenStyle {
  eBlockTween, 
  eNoBlockTween, 
  eRepeatTween, 
  eReverseRepeatTween,
};

Used to set the style of the tween, whether is blocking, non-blocking, repeating, or repeating reverse (where at the end of the tween cycle and repeats, it reverses the direction of the tween).
