RE: Checkpoint help - Tomato Cat - 04-25-2013
I see the problem.
PHP Code:
void ReloadCheckpoint2(string &in asName, int alCount)
{
if(HasItem("LevelEndKey_1"))
{
SetSwingDoorClosed("prison_1", true, false);
//AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "LockCellarDoor_01", "CellarChase", true, 1);
SetEntityActive("CellarBrute_01", false);
RemoveItem("LevelEndKey_1");
CreateEntityAtArea("LevelEndKey_1", "key_laboratory.ent", "RespawnCellarKey", false);
}
}
The script is saying "Only do this if the player has the key". Nothing happens if the player doesn't have the key. No doors are unlocked, no callback re-added etc.
I modified it slightly:
PHP Code:
void ReloadCheckpoint2(string &in asName, int alCount)
{
if(HasItem("LevelEndKey_1"))
{
SetSwingDoorClosed("prison_*", true, false);
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "LockCellarDoor_01", "CellarChase", true, 1);
SetEntityActive("CellarBrute_01", false);
SetSwingDoorLocked("CellarDoor_01",false,false);
SetEntityActive("BruteDisappear_01",false);
RemoveItem("LevelEndKey_1");
CreateEntityAtArea("LevelEndKey_1", "key_laboratory.ent", "RespawnCellarKey", false);
}
else
{
SetSwingDoorClosed("prison_*", true, false);
SetSwingDoorLocked("CellarDoor_01",false,false);
SetEntityActive("BruteDisappear_01",false);
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "LockCellarDoor_01", "CellarChase", true, 1);
SetEntityActive("CellarBrute_01", false);
}
}
Adding the else statement ensures everything is reset, regardless of whether or not player has the key.
You'll see that I deactivated "CellarBrute_01" area. This is because it locked the entrance to the maze after I had respawned. Also, be sure to make the "Checkpoint_2" area encompass the entire first room (I was able to bypass it a few times).
Hopefully this solves your issues.

No wait, sorry about the previous post (unless you didn't see it before this edit) but it worked!
Turns out when I was testing our your solution I was working from the .hps I had open in dropbox and not the one in my Amnesia folder! God I'm such a fool. But wow it worked, all doors are closed, the callback works now as well. You are a legend!
And I just realised I need to figure out how to respawn the doors that the Brute breaks down during the playthough.

Happy to help!
I haven't used it, but maybe this work for the doors?
PHP Code:
//Just use "prison_*" like before
void ResetProp(string& asName);

Awesome, will give that a test soon and let you know the results.
Hopefully I don't have to keep spamming the threads with my "halp plz" threads. No one I know in person or on Steam does CSs for Amnesia :C

Sorry to double post, but that worked perfectly! Thank you again
