[SOLVED]Lever if-statements nearly working... - FlawlessHappiness - 06-10-2012

Yea so i have 4 levers (2 of them is combined in 1 script) So it is 3 scripts we are talking about.

Spoiler below!

void OnStart()
{

SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever_simple01_1", "PipeStart1_1");
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever_simple01_2", "PipeStart1_2");
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever_simple01_3", "PipeStart2_1");
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever_simple01_4", "PipeStart3_1");
}

Everything works, except the if(GetLocalVarInt("MachineStart") == 3) and beneath that.

The debug messages show that the LocalVarInt is at 3, (They say +1, 3 times), but no sound or particlesystems are getting active..

It used to work, but now it doesn't. There are no errors or anything.. Just nothing

RE: Lever if-statements nearly working... - No Author - 06-10-2012

Can you tell me how to work levers for doors like in Amnesia : Justine ?

RE: Lever if-statements nearly working... - FlawlessHappiness - 06-10-2012

I don't know if they work any different. Do they?
Anyway these levers are just from the normal amnesia.

RE: Lever if-statements nearly working... - No Author - 06-11-2012

Can you send the map ? So I can test it. Maybe I could figure it out.

RE: Lever if-statements nearly working... - FlawlessHappiness - 06-11-2012

Actually i figured it out i hope:
void MachineSoundTimer(string &in asTimer)
{
PlaySoundAtEntity("","13_machine_run.snt", "ScriptArea_2", 0, false);
SetEntityActive("ScriptArea_18", true);
SetEntityActive("ScriptArea_19", true);
SetEntityActive("ScriptArea_20", true);
}


///LEVERS

void PipeStart3_1(string &in asEntity, int alState)
{
if(alState == -1)
{
AddDebugMessage("MachineStart +1", false);
AddLocalVarInt("MachineStart", 1);
SetLeverStuckState("lever_simple01_4", -1, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("","13_press_done.snt", "ScriptArea_8", 0, false);
CreateParticleSystemAtEntity("Steam_5", "ps_steam.ps", "ScriptArea_7", true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("","13_steam.snt", "ScriptArea_7", 0, false);
CreateParticleSystemAtEntity("Steam_6", "ps_steam.ps", "ScriptArea_8", true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("","13_steam.snt", "ScriptArea_8", 0, false);
SetEntityActive("StickyArea_1", true);
Instead of having an 'else' here i just made it inside the if statement..
if(GetLocalVarInt("MachineStart") == 3)
{
AddPlayerSanity(5.0f);
AddTimer("", 0.3, "MachineSoundTimer");
CreateParticleSystemAtEntity("Steam_nonstop_1", "ps_steam.ps", "ScriptArea_9", true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("","13_steam.snt", "ScriptArea_12", 0, false);
CreateParticleSystemAtEntity("Steam_nonstop_2", "ps_steam.ps", "ScriptArea_10", true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("","13_steam.snt", "ScriptArea_13", 0, false);
CreateParticleSystemAtEntity("Steam_nonstop_3", "ps_steam.ps", "ScriptArea_11", true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("","13_steam.snt", "ScriptArea_14", 0, false);
}
}
}

This works for me

This works for me
This script is very different to the earlier one. So you didn't really fix anything, you only modified it to the right.

RE: Lever if-statements nearly working... - FlawlessHappiness - 06-11-2012

Yes i modified the script, because more was needed for the story and stuff, but the main part is what is written in bold. I removed the 'else' and adjusted the if-statement to that.
