Message on door and StopPlayerLookAt - CreatAr - 07-13-2012
Hi there, I'm currently working on my first custom story. I'm new to scripting and in need of some help. The 2 things that I need help with is, making a message appear when you try to open a locked door, and making the player to be able to look around freely again after using a PlayerLookAt script. Those 2 scripts are the ones not working. Here's my lang and hps files.
///////////////////////////
//Run first time starting map
void OnStart()
{
AddUseItemCallback("", "bigroomdoorkey_1", "bigroomdoor", "UsedKeyOnDoor", true);
}
void KeyFunc (string &in asEntity, string &in type)
{
SetEntityActive("servant_brute_1", true);
StartPlayerLookAt("servant_brute_1", 15, 15, "");
AddTimer("monstertimer", 2, "monstertimer");
ShowEnemyPlayerPosition("servant_brute_1");
}
void mostertimer(string &in asTimer)
{
StopPlayerLookAt();
}
void UsedKeyOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("bigroomdoor", false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", "bigroomdoor", 0, false);
RemoveItem("bigroomdoorkey_1");
}
void DoorIsLocked(string &in asEntity)
{
if(GetSwingDoorLocked("bigroomdoor") == true)
{
SetMessage("Messages", "thedoorislocked", 0);
}
}
////////////////////////////
// Run when entering map
void OnEnter()
{
}
///////////////////////////
// Run when leaving map
void OnLeave()
{
}

RE: Message on door and StopPlayerLookAt - Your Computer - 07-13-2012
For starters, you're going to need to set a SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback for DoorIsLocked. Secondly, you should use the parameter for DoorIsLocked instead of explicitly providing the name. Finally, you have special quotation marks in your LANG file; these are not considered proper quotation marks by the engine.

{
StopPlayerLookAt();
}

Thanks both of you! However, "

I don't understand this, im really new to scripting. I changed the typos and the quotation marks, the message on the door showed up, however im still locked at looking on the brutes spawnlocation.
RE: Message on door and StopPlayerLookAt - SilentStriker - 07-14-2012
KeyFunc and DoorIsLocked how do you call them? Since in the script you have no callback/function that calls KeyFunc and DoorIsLocked.
What YourComputer means about parameters is that on GetSwingDoorLocked you should write asEntity instead of "bigroomdoor"
Parameters is these: (string &in asEntity)
RE: Message on door and StopPlayerLookAt - CreatAr - 07-14-2012
The message on the door is working fine now, it was just the quotation marks. However the StopPlayerLookAt isn't. So that's the help I need now
EDIT: I misread your post, what do you mean by how do I call them? Do you mean in the level editor?

So that's the help I need nowSince you don't have any function calling KeyFunc and DoorIsLocked then I would guess they are called from the level editor?

RE: Message on door and StopPlayerLookAt - CreatAr - 07-14-2012
Um, I think so I guess, I'm really new to scripting, I have written DoorIsLocked in the PlayerInteractCallback tab for the door. And KeyFunc in the CallbackFunc tab for the key that triggers the brute.
RE: Message on door and StopPlayerLookAt - SilentStriker - 07-14-2012
Yepp that's what I thought
Here's your problem with the timer void mostertimer it should be monstertimer
RE: Message on door and StopPlayerLookAt - CreatAr - 07-14-2012
Another typo damn
It's good to have someone else look at it. Because you might have stared to much on it to see the problems ^^
Thanks alot!
