Need Help for Scripting Rotating Bookshelf - zTizzle - 08-28-2012
Im trying to script my custom map so that when you pull a lever it rotates a bookshelf so the player can advance, but it isnt working.
Here is my code:
PHP Code:
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever_book", "shelf");
void shelf(string &in asEntity, int alState){ if (alState == 1) { SetMoveObjectState("books",1.0f); PlaySoundAtEntity("", "quest_completed.snt", "shelf_move_1", 0, false); return; }}
books is the name of the bookshelf, and lever_book is the name of the lever. Any ideas?
sorry the code looks really bad, this is my first post on this forum,

Can you please specify what isn't working? Does it not have the desired effect in game, or is it crashing and giving you a message of what is causing it?

Here is my code:books is the name of the bookshelf, and lever_book is the name of the lever. Any ideas?Spoiler below!

(you can do spoiler with [spoi ler] your text [/spoi ler] (obviously without the spaces^^)
but ok, first, i would recommend to make use of the lovely enter-key, makes it easier to work with, and sometimes, for example in python, you have to do it. if it's just because of the mixed up forum-post, then... this doens't matter, excuse me.
and could you tell us, what specifically is wrong? what happens in the cs, does the switch simply not work? crashing?
edit: and andy was faster, as always. sorry for the doubled question.

Here's how your script should look:
void OnStart()
{
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever_book", "shelf");
}
void shelf(string &in asEntity, int alState)
{
if(alState == 1)
{
SetMoveObjectState("books", 1.0f);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "quest_completed.snt", "Player", 0, false);
}
}
And here's a quick tutorial for secret shelves (just follow the top portion labeled "The Bookshelf"):

Hope that helped.
