Lever Puzzle Help - RurouniMori - 05-09-2013
I'm trying to make a lever puzzle where after three levers are pulled in a certain order, a painting slides, and a key falls. I've made a fair amount of progress on my script so far as a whole, but I'd definitely still say I'm a noob. XP I'm having issues getting the levers to work and therefore, for the puzzle to work at all.
Basically, what I want to happen is:
1. Read a note that has a riddle on it, levers are made active.
2. Pull lever1, lever2, then lever3 in order.
3. The painting slides over, key is made active, it falls, puzzle solved.
I don't know how to make it so the levers lock after use, that way you know you pulled it in the right direction and it worked. And if I can figure out or get help how to do this, how can I reset it if they do it wrong?
Here's my script (just the puzzle related info):
Code:
////////////////////////////
// Run first time starting map
void OnEnter()
{
SetEntityCallbackFunc("puzzlenote", "OnRead");
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever1", "LeverStateChange");
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever2", "LeverStateChange");
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever3", "LeverStateChange");
}
void OnRead(string &in asEntity, string &in type)
{
AddQuest("puzzle", "puzzle");
SetEntityActive("lever1", true);
SetEntityActive("lever2", true);
SetEntityActive("lever3", true);
}
void LeverStateChange(string &in asEntity, int alState)
{
if((GetLeverState("lever1") == 1) && (GetLeverState("lever2") == 1) && (GetLeverState("lever3") == 1))
{
PlaySoundAtEntity("","level_wood_min_max01.snt", "lever3", 0, false);
AddPropForce("themaiden", 200, 0, 0, "mylordscurse_1");
AddTimer("", 2, "PaintingMove");
SetEntityInteractionDisabled("lever1", true);
SetEntityInteractionDisabled("lever2", true);
SetEntityInteractionDisabled("lever3", true);
}
}
void PaintingMove(string &in asTimer)
{
SetEntityActive("chapter2key", true);
SetPlayerSanity(90);
PlayMusic("10_puzzle01.ogg", false, 0.7, 0.1, 10, false);
}Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

As far as sticking the lever goes, use this:
PHP Code:
SetLeverStuckState(string& asName, int alState, bool abEffects);
I'll look into your other script.

To reset, add an else if like this.
PHP Code:
void LeverStateChange(string &in asEntity, int alState)
{
if((GetLeverState("lever1") == 1) && (GetLeverState("lever2") == 1) && (GetLeverState("lever3") == 1))
{
PlaySoundAtEntity("","level_wood_min_max01.snt", "lever3", 0, false);
AddPropForce("themaiden", 200, 0, 0, "mylordscurse_1");
AddTimer("", 2, "PaintingMove");
SetEntityInteractionDisabled("lever1", true);
SetEntityInteractionDisabled("lever2", true);
SetEntityInteractionDisabled("lever3", true);
}
else if
{
//EFFECTS
}
}

Ok, try this out.
Basically what's happening is that a variable is incremented each time you pull a lever, which is locked in place. (But if it's the correct lever, a separate variable is incremented.) This repeats until all 3 levers are pulled and function checks to see if the levers were pulled in the correct order.
Add these to OnStart, first:
PHP Code:
SetLocalVarInt("Lever",0);
SetLocalVarInt("Correct",0);
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever_nice01_*", "LeverCallback");
Here's the main function:
Spoiler below!
This is the function that checks the order:

Wow thanks! I'll try this out and get back to you! XD

Okay, so I got it all in there, I edited to fit my script and map.
The levers go into a position and lock, that's exactly what I want. If you move them in the wrong order, it resets and makes the sounds I want. BUT it does not do as I want when it IS in the right order. It just resets. Did I miss something?
Again, what I want to happen, is the painting I have to move, the key to be made active, and fall out.
OnEnter Script:
Quote:SetLocalVarInt("Lever",0);
SetLocalVarInt("Correct",0);
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever1", "LeverCallback");
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever2", "LeverCallback");
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever3", "LeverCallback");
Main Script:
Quote:void LeverCallback(string &in asEntity, int alState)
{
if(alState == 1)
{
if(GetLocalVarInt("Lever") == 0)
{
if(asEntity == "lever1")
{
SetLeverStuckState("lever1", 1, true);
AddLocalVarInt("Lever",1);
}
else if(asEntity == "lever2")
{
AddLocalVarInt("Correct",1);
SetLeverStuckState("lever2", 1, true);
AddLocalVarInt("Lever",1);
}
else if(asEntity == "lever3")
{
SetLeverStuckState("lever3", 1, true);
AddLocalVarInt("Lever", 1);
}
}

RE: Lever Puzzle Help - Tomato Cat - 05-10-2013
When I was testing it, I set the correct order to 231. That might not be what you like. =p
You can modify it by changing where the "Correct" variable appears.
