ActorIterator

ActorIterator is a lighter-in-comparison iterator compared to its brothers, ThinkerIterator and BlockThingsIterator which is much less resource intensive. However, actors require a TID in order for this to qualify them as part of the iteration. As such, a tid of 0 will not work at all.

Note: This feature is for ZScript only.

Functions

ActorIteratorCreate (deprecated)
  1. int tid,
  2. class<Actor> type = "Actor"

(Note: as of GZDoom 4.0.0, this function has been deprecated in favor of CreateActorIterator.) Initializes the iterator, searching for an actor of type and with the specific tid. TID must not be 0.

  • tid - The TID to search. Must not be 0 or it will not work.
  • type - Serves as a filter. Specifying a classname here will only search for this type of actor and descendants. Default is Actor.

Note: this function is static and should be called off the class name, i.e. ActorIterator.Create(...).

ActorNextNoneCycles through the list of existing actors, filtered out by the Create() function.
voidReinitNoneRestarts the search.
