Animation fail

[zocken212]

Hey,

I want to make an information window animated (fully dx) and so far it worked. But now the fail comes, when it should go smooth back out of the screen it just disappears in like lightspeed. Here is the code:

  
local x,y = guiGetScreenSize() 
local startTick = getTickCount() 
local animState = "start" 
local length = 1500 
local font = 1 
local text = "" 
local handled = false 
  
function drawIt() 
    if animState == "start" then 
        local x1,y1,_ = interpolateBetween(512*x/1280,10-y/3,0,512*x/1280,10*y/960,0,progress(1000),"Linear") 
        local x2,y2,_ = interpolateBetween(512*x/1280,10-y/3,0,512*x/1280,10*y/960,0,progress(1000),"Linear") 
        local x3,y3,_ = interpolateBetween(767*x/1280,30-y/3,0,767*x/1280,30*y/960,0,progress(1000),"Linear") 
        local x4,y4,_ = interpolateBetween(512*x/1280,30-y/3,0,512*x/1280,30*y/960,0,progress(1000),"Linear") 
        local x5,y5,_ = interpolateBetween(512*x/1280,170-y/3,0,512*x/1280,170*y/960,0,progress(1000),"Linear") 
        local x6,y6,_ = interpolateBetween(512*x/1280,30-y/3,0,512*x/1280,30*y/960,0,progress(1000),"Linear") 
        local x7,y7,_ = interpolateBetween(763*x/1280,30-y/3,0,763*x/1280,30*y/960,0,progress(1000),"Linear")

        dxDrawText("Information Window", x2, y2, x3, y3, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 1.00*y/960, "default", "center", "center", false, false, true, false, false) 
        dxDrawRectangle(x4, y4, 255*x/1280, 140*y/960, tocolor(0, 120, 250, 90), true) 
        dxDrawRectangle(x5, y5, 255*x/1280, 4*y/960, tocolor(0, 120, 250, 255), true) 
        dxDrawRectangle(x6, y6, 4*x/1280, 140*y/960, tocolor(0, 120, 250, 255), true)

maybe you should check your progress.

This makes no sense. It is the exact same value tick.

    local duration = startTick+tick-startTick 

This will give you the future time, so you can compare it with the time now.

    local futureTime = startTick+tick 

For progress backwards:

local progress = 1-(startTick/futureTime) 

Next to that, you have to reset the:(because you will be re-comparing the time now with the future time)

startTick = getTickCount() 

[zocken212]

startTick = getTickCount()

I did this where it changes to "back" and it worked fine as it should be. Thank you!
