Hello Openbor friends.
I would like to create the following spell within a projectile:
The player is affected for 3 seconds by the inversion of the directional keys (left becomes right, down becomes jump and vice versa).
Here is the projectile launched by Hyoh, hyohshot.txt:
The header of the player character Kenshiro:
The confusion spell in question:
Unfortunately, there is no inversion of the player Kenshiro's controls when he is hit by the projectile.
What do I need to change in this script so that the key reversal takes place on the player?
Thank you all

Code:
void main()
{
// 'self' exists when called as updateentityscript
void self = getlocalvar("self");
// 'target' exists when called as didhitscript (projectile hit)
void target = getlocalvar("target");
float now = openborvariant("elapsed_time");
// ------------------------------------------------------
// CASE 1 : called by projectile (we have a target)
// ------------------------------------------------------
if(target)
{
// We only want to confuse players
if(getentityproperty(target, "type") == openborconstant("TYPE_PLAYER"))
{
// We use entityvar index 0 as "confused flag"
// and entityvar index 1 as "confuse end time"
if(getentityvar(target, 0) != 1)
{
setentityvar(target, 0, 1); // mark as confused
setentityvar(target, 1, now + 3000); // store end time (3 seconds)
}
}
return; // projectile path done
}
// ------------------------------------------------------
// CASE 2 : called every frame on the player
// ------------------------------------------------------
if(!self) return;
// Only run logic on players
if(getentityproperty(self, "type") != openborconstant("TYPE_PLAYER"))
return;
// Read confusion state
// var 0 = flag (1 = confused)
// var 1 = endtime (ms)
int confused = getentityvar(self, 0);
float endtime = getentityvar(self, 1);
if(confused != 1)
return; // player is not confused, nothing to do
// Check if confusion expired
if(now >= endtime)
{
setentityvar(self, 0, 0); // clear flag
setentityvar(self, 1, 0); // clear time
return;
}
// ------------------------------------------------------
// Confusion is active -> invert controls
// ------------------------------------------------------
// Get player index (needed for playerkeys)
// Some builds always return -1, so we fallback to 0 (P1).
int p = getentityproperty(self, "playerindex");
if(p < 0)
p = 0;
// Read current inputs from that player slot
int key_up = playerkeys(p, 0, "moveup");
int key_down = playerkeys(p, 0, "movedown");
int key_left = playerkeys(p, 0, "moveleft");
int key_right = playerkeys(p, 0, "moveright");
// Get current position
float x = getentityproperty(self, "x");
float z = getentityproperty(self, "z");
// Movement speed while confused (tweak if needed)
float speed = 2.0;
// Left becomes "move right"
if(key_left)
{
changeentityproperty(self, "position", x + speed, z);
}
// Right becomes "move left"
if(key_right)
{
changeentityproperty(self, "position", x - speed, z);
}
// Up becomes duck
if(key_up)
{
// Player must have an animation called "duck"
performattack(self, "duck");
}
// Down becomes jump
if(key_down)
{
// Player must have an animation called "jump"
performattack(self, "jump");
}
}What do I need to change in this script so that the key reversal takes place on the player?
Thank you all
