How To Make a Memento on Door - Carlos2295 - 09-20-2014

Hi there, I am currently working on a custom story that is in it's second month of development. YouTube tutorials and the Frictional Games scipting wiki are what I use the most. However, I could not find a tutorial for adding a memento whenever the player interacts with a locked door. If it's not too much trouble I was wondering what function I would use. It's for a locked level door. Any help will be appreciated.

1. click on the door you wanna add a memento on
2. Click on the entity tab
3. Where it says "PlayerInteractCallback" write "memento" in there without the quotes.
3 Open the hps file
4. Do
PHP Code:
void memento(string &in asEntity)
{
    AddQuest("", "ENTRYOFQUEST");
} 

All done :p

Wow, thank you so much. I can't believe I forgot the door's callback function lol. This will definitely help out in the future.

P.S - Where should I have posted this?

Development Support is the right place to post issues like these.
Here's a link: http://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/forum-39.html

Also, that is not just the door's callback function. It's an interact function.
That entity-tab should be in almost any entity, making it possible to call a function by interacting with the entity.

It will always be:

void Function(string &in asEntity)
{
Something
}
