Issue making script work - LiVam - 08-22-2012

Been trying to make a simple script that activates a few torches when the player enters an area.
I've made sure the area has the same name as what is being called. I've recreated that area too.

Tried a few different settings for the Lit command. None of the torches change at all.

The script:

Code:
    // This runs when the map first starts

     void OnStart()

     {

    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "AreaLightsOn01", "LightsOn01", true, 1);

     }

    void LightsOn01(string& asName, bool abLit, bool abEffects)

    {

    SetLampLit("torch_static01_1", true, false);

    SetLampLit("torch_static01_2", true, false);

    SetLampLit("torch01", true, true);

    SetLampLit("torch_static01_4", true, true);

    SetLampLit("torch_static01_5", true, false);

    SetLampLit("torch_static01_6", false, true);

    SetLampLit("torch_static01_7", true, false);

    SetLampLit("torch_static01_8", true, false);

    SetLampLit("torch_static01_9", true, false);

    }

     //===========================================

     // This runs when the player enters the map

     void OnEnter()

     {

     }

     //===========================================

     // This runs when the player leaves the map

     void OnLeave()

     {

     }

Any ideas? Smile

Edit: I tried adding a screen function to the event. Nothing happened. So I'm assuming the script isn't being called at all. Though I couldn't start the map when I wrote in incorrect syntax, so it should be loading the script file OK.

How about void LightsOn01(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

This is the one you should use everytime you call a function when colliding with an area.

That appears to be the right one.

Thank you so much! Smile

Works like a charm now!
