StartPlayerLookAt does not work - Lake - 08-06-2012

this is my script:

Code:
void OnStart()

{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "ScriptArea_4", "capitoloz", true, 1);
}

void void capitoloz(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
AddTimer("", 1, "capitolo0");
SetPlayerActive(false);
}

void capitolo0(string &in asTimer)
{
PreloadSound("impact_glass_high.snt");
StartPlayerLookAt("home", 1, 1, "capitolo01");
}

void capitolo01(string &in asParient, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
AddTimer("", 4.0f, "capitolo02");
StopPlayerLookAt();
}

When the player passes the area of script, the layer freezes, but does not look at the object in question, plus also the void capitolo01 does not work

thats the problem.

I dont think you can use StartPlayerLookAt on a Zimmer hause

It only works with entites that the player can move in-game

RE: StartPlayerLookAt does not work - Lake - 08-06-2012

I changed entity and now the player looks at him, but the void capitolo01 still does not work .... why?

Do you mean that the player wont stop looking?

Because you have the wrong callback syntax.

RE: StartPlayerLookAt does not work - FlawlessHappiness - 08-06-2012

I've never made the look-callback work. I would add another timer and make that call capitolo01

use this syntax

(string& asEntityName, float afSpeedMul, float afMaxSpeed, string& asAtTargetCallback);
