if you want the jesus to spawn when the player has the key it should look like this

if(HasItem("scary_key_1")) SetEntityActive("jesus", true);

Look again and you'll see it has (string, bool), not (string).

hhmmm seems are are right on that one.

void SetEntityActive(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

is what I am using for the collide callback. When I use "(string& asName, bool abActive);" it doesnt work. It gives an error.

And what you will tell me will probably make me seems like the biggest R-tard on this forum XD

You're confusing yourself by taking things out of context.

oh my god I think I see it.

something like this?

void SetEntityActive(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, bool abActive, int alStates)

RE: Why wouldn't this script work? - Prelauncher - 05-31-2012

No, SetEntityActive looks like this:

Code:
SetEntityActive(string& asName, bool abActive);

I think that you have confused your functions, You don't have to name the function to what you want to use:
Example

Code:
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "scriptarea", "MYFUNC", true, 1); //This is placed under void OnStart or OnEnter

void MYFUNC(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

{    

SetEntityActive("Item1", true); //True means that you want the entity to be active, if you want it to be inactive you use false.

}
