Post Re: Flashbang
I don't think that's possible...

The disabling code should look something like this:
Code:
for Billy in MovableMan.Actors do
    if (Billy.Pos.X <= self.Pos.X + ### and Billy.Pos.X >= self.Pos.X - ### and Billy.Pos.Y <= self.Pos.Y + ### and Billy.Pos.Y >= self.Pos.Y - ###) then -- ### is radius of the flash in pixels
         Billy.AIM_SHARP = false; -- I have no idea how to access AIM_SHARP and WEAPON_FIRE so this probaly not the way to do it
         Billy.WEAPON_FIRE = false; -- Once again, this won't work, but its how the code should look like

Without comments it is just

Code:
for Billy in MovableMan.Actors do
    if (Billy.Pos.X <= self.Pos.X + 111 and Billy.Pos.X >= self.Pos.X - 11 and Billy.Pos.Y <= self.Pos.Y + 111 and Billy.Pos.Y >= self.Pos.Y - 111) then
         Billy.AIM_SHARP = false;
         Billy.WEAPON_FIRE = false;


Much easier to read, if less informative and harder to use.
I can understand that and I haven't even tried Lua.

Nope, you don't just directly access controller states. You need to get the actor's controller first, then use a certain function on the controller. Also, good lord, there's a better way to check a distance between actors.

Code:
for Billy in MovableMan.Actors do
    local flashRange = 111;
    local distanceX = self.Pos.X - Billy.Pos.X;
    local distanceY = self.Pos.Y - Billy.Pos.Y;
    local distance = math.sqrt(distanceX ^ 2 + distanceY ^ 2);
    if distance <= flashRange then
         local BillyController = Billy:GetController();
         BillyController:SetState(Controller.AIM_SHARP, false);
         BillyController:SetState(Controller.WEAPON_FIRE, false);
    end
end

end

That made it so much easier...
