Help with Grunt - xToxic - 02-25-2011

Hey, I need some help with my grunt on my map.

So far I have managed to make it activate when I move inside an area box, and then it will move onto the path nodes. But my problem now is that i want the grunt to de-activate when it moves to the last path node.

Help me pleaseAngel

you want to fase into smoke? or just de-active?

if you want to de-active the monster. just place a script at the last pathnode. Make Callback of the script area and place the opposite of the active script. So
Code:
SetEntityActive("servant_grunt_1", false);

I was thinking about just de-activate, but if they turn into smoke that would be much cooler Big Grin How do I do it? Smile
It doesn't work!


RE: Help with Grunt - nkmol - 02-25-2011

Code:
void OnEnter()
AddEntityCollideCallback("servant_grunt_1", "ScriptArea_1", "GruntGone", true, 1);

void GruntGone(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("servant_grunt_1", false);
}

That should work, i don't know how the smoke effect really works. But i know it's possible Wink

That would be FadeEnemyToSmoke(string& asName, bool abPlaySound);

Code:
void OnEnter()
AddEntityCollideCallback("servant_grunt_1", "ScriptArea_1", "GruntGone", true, 1);

void GruntGone(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
FadeEnemyToSmoke("servant_grunt_1",true);
}
