How does the code check if the player is within the bounds of the width of the fan?
How does the code check if the player is within the bounds of the width of the fan?
First Condition:
First Condition:
Player.X > VerticalFan.X - (VerticalFan.Width / 2)
This checks if the player's X position is greater than the left edge of the fan.
VerticalFan.X: The X position of the center of the fan.
VerticalFan.Width / 2: Half of the fan's width, which gives you the distance from the center to the left edge.
So, the expression VerticalFan.X - (VerticalFan.Width / 2) calculates the left edge of the fan. If the player's X position is greater than this value, it means the player is to the right of the left edge.
Second Condition:
Second Condition:
Player.X < VerticalFan.X + (VerticalFan.Width / 2)
This checks if the player's X position is less than the right edge of the fan.
VerticalFan.X + (VerticalFan.Width / 2) calculates the right edge of the fan (center of the fan plus half of its width).
If the player's X position is less than this value, it means the player is to the left of the right edge.
Example:
Example:
Let’s say the fan's center X position is 500 and its width is 100.
The left edge would be at 500 - (100 / 2) = 450.
The right edge would be at 500 + (100 / 2) = 550.
If the player's X position is between 450 and 550, the conditions will be true, meaning the player is within the fan's area.
