Text not appearing on door - Spaysh - 02-07-2013

Hey guys, just wondering why my doors won't display the messages when they are interacted by the player, the code for the map is

Code:
void LockedDoor1(string &in entity)

{

    if(GetSwingDoorLocked("Locked_Door_1") == true)

    {

        SetMessage("Message", "LockedDoor1msg", 0);

    }

}

void TortureDoorLocked(string &in entity)

{

    if(GetSwingDoorLocked("Torture_Door_1") == true)

    {

        SetMessage("Message", "TortureDoorLockedmsg", 0);

    }

}

void MonsterDoorLocked(string &in entity)

{

    if(GetSwingDoorLocked("MonsterDoor") == true)

    {

        SetMessage("Message", "MonsterDoorLockedmsg", 0);

    }

}

and my extra_english.lang file looks like this

Code:
<LANGUAGE>

   <CATEGORY Name="CustomStoryMain">

      <Entry Name="Description">Trying out HPL Editor!</Entry>

   </CATEGORY>

   <CATEGORY Name="Inventory">

    <Entry Name="ItemDesc_Key1">Key to Cellar</Entry>

    <Entry Name="ItemName_Key1">Cellar Key</Entry>

    <Entry Name="ItemDesc_crowbar>A sturdy crowbar used to pry doors</Entry>

    <Entry Name="ItemName_crowbar>Crowbar</Entry>

   </CATEGORY>

   <CATEGORY Name=“Message”>

    <Entry Name =“LockedDoor1msg”>This door is locked, maybe if I had a key...</Entry>

    <Entry Name =“MonsterDoorLockedmsg”>This door is locked with a mechanism.</Entry>

    <Entry Name =“TortureDoorLockedmsg”>This door is slightly locked, might be able to pry open...</Entry>

   </CATEGORY>

</LANGUAGE>

I have been looking at this for ages now and I still cannot see what is the problem, all the door names are spelt correctly, so its not that.
Any help is appreciated

You have the script wrong:

Your script:

Code:
void LockedDoor1(string &in entity)

{

    if(GetSwingDoorLocked("Locked_Door_1") == true)

    {

        SetMessage("Message", "LockedDoor1msg", 0);

    }

}

void TortureDoorLocked(string &in entity)

{

    if(GetSwingDoorLocked("Torture_Door_1") == true)

    {

        SetMessage("Message", "TortureDoorLockedmsg", 0);

    }

}

void MonsterDoorLocked(string &in entity)

{

    if(GetSwingDoorLocked("MonsterDoor") == true)

    {

        SetMessage("Message", "MonsterDoorLockedmsg", 0);

    }

}

It should be like:

Code:
void LockedDoor1(string &in Entity)

{

    if(GetSwingDoorLocked("Locked_Door_1") == true)

    {

        SetMessage("Message", "LockedDoor1msg", 0);

    }

}

void TortureDoorLocked(string &in Entity)

{

    if(GetSwingDoorLocked("Torture_Door_1") == true)

    {

        SetMessage("Message", "TortureDoorLockedmsg", 0);

    }

}

void MonsterDoorLocked(string &in Entity)

{

    if(GetSwingDoorLocked("MonsterDoor") == true)

    {

        SetMessage("Message", "MonsterDoorLockedmsg", 0);

    }

}

Using the Lang Editor, something is wrong. FYI, the Error is at Line 8, Position 69.
Here you go, bro.

PHP Code:
<LANGUAGE>
  <RESOURCES>
  </RESOURCES>
  <CATEGORY Name="CustomStoryMain">
    <Entry Name="Description">Trying out HPL Editor!</Entry>
  </CATEGORY>

    <Entry Name="ItemName_Key1">Cellar Key</Entry>
    <Entry Name="ItemDesc_crowbar">A sturdy crowbar used to pry doors</Entry>
    <Entry Name="ItemName_crowbar">Crowbar</Entry>
  </CATEGORY>
  <CATEGORY Name="Message">
    <Entry Name="MonsterDoorLockedmsg">This door is locked with a mechanism.</Entry>
    <Entry Name="TortureDoorLockedmsg">This door is slightly locked, might be able to pry open...</Entry>
    <Entry Name="LockedDoor1msg">This door is locked, maybe if I had a key...</Entry>
  </CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE> 

Hope it helps.

Dear the chaser, something is wrong with his .lang file.

RE: Text not appearing on door - The chaser - 02-07-2013

*Clears throat*

Ehem. I didn't see the error in the .lang file, but he had some Paremeters wrong (he just had "entity" instead "Entity").

With JustAnotherPlayer corrected .lang file and your fixed by me script, it should be fine.

As long as the types are correct, it shouldn't matter how you name the parameter
