<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''program.control''' command changes the [[ego]] [[screen object]] control mode to program control instead of [[player.control|player control]].<br />
<br />
== Syntax ==<br />
<br />
program.control();<br />
<br />
== Remarks ==<br />
<br />
When operating in program control mode, player input will not control [[ego]]. Instead, ego motion can be controlled just like any other [[screen object]]. Using the '''[[move.obj]]''', '''[[move.obj.v]]''' or '''[[wander]]''' command on ego will also switch ego to program control mode automatically.<br />
<br />
If [[ego]] is in motion when the '''program.control''' command is executed, ego will continue moving in its current direction.<br />
<br />
The '''[[player.control]]''' command will restore normal player control over ego.<br />
<br />
== Possible Errors ==<br />
<br />
None.<br />
<br />
== Example ==<br />
<br />
<div class="CodeBlockHeader">Code:</div><br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="agi"><br />
program.control(); [ now player cannot control ego<br />
...<br />
player.control(); [ player control is restored<br />
</syntaxhighlight><br />
