So where excact should i change? my script looks like this atm -


void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "ScriptArea_5", "StartLookSequence", false, 1);
}
void StartLookSequence(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
AddTimer("LookTimer1", 4, "NextLook");
AddTimer("LookTimer2", 8, "NextLook");
AddTimer("LookTimer3", 12, "NextLook");
AddTimer("LookTimer4", 12, "NextLook");
StartPlayerLookAt("ScriptArea_1", 2, 2, "");
SetPlayerActive(false);
}
void NextLook(string &in asTimer)
{
if(asTimer == "LookTimer1")
{
StopPlayerLookAt();
StartPlayerLookAt("ScriptArea_2", 2, 2, "");
}
if(asTimer == "LookTimer2")
{
StopPlayerLookAt();
StartPlayerLookAt("ScriptArea_3", 2, 2, "");
}
if(asTimer == "LookTimer3")
{
StopPlayerLookAt();
StartPlayerLookAt("ScriptArea_4", 2, 2, "");
}
if(asTimer == "LookTimer4")
{
StopPlayerLookAt();
SetPlayerActive(true);
SetEntityActive("servant_grunt_1", true);
ShowEnemyPlayerPosition("servant_grunt_1");
}
}



Sorry for being such a noob :< Great help tho! thanks alot.

Works great! now only one more thing LOL :<

The camera moves to area1,2 and 3, but not 4. It just stops after the 3rd, then the monster spawns and breaks the door, but if i stay around the ScriptArea_5. It keeps repeating so it looks at the areas while getting killed by the monster, is there anyway to make it so only look at it once, not everytime i enter the area, if you understand? and how to add a sound when i enter the ScriptArea_5? Sorry for all questions, hope you dont mind.

Bolded areas are what I altered.

Yeah works now, but if i turn around and try to run away from the monster I enter the area again - and the player starts to look at area_1,2,3,4 again. Is there anyway to make it so the player only look ONCE and not everytime he enters area_5?

By changing the statement to true, it should only happen once.

I've got AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "ScriptArea_5", "StartLookSequence", true, 1);

still the same Confused

Remove any map_cache files, that may be the root of the problem.
