Nope theyre all Brute and the SetEntityActive("Brute", false); doesnt work do I have to be a certain distance away from him or can I be like less than 5 meters away from him?

SetEntityActive("Brute", false); deactivates the monster no matter how far he's away from you.
It seems your function doesn't get executed. Make sure you've set the entitycollidecallback right and look for typos.

SetEntityActive() works everywhere

**Josh9810** · 10-25-2012, 07:53 AM

void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "brutey", "MonsterFunction", true, 1);
}
void MonsterFunction(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEnemyDisableTriggers("Brute", true);
SetEntityActive("Brute", true);
AddEnemyPatrolNode("Brute", "PathNodeArea_1", 2, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("Brute", "PathNodeArea_2", 0, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("Brute", "PathNodeArea_3", 0, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("Brute", "PathNodeArea_4", 0, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("Brute", "PathNodeArea_5", 0, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("Brute", "PathNodeArea_6", 0, "");

AddEnemyPatrolNode("Brute", "PathNodeArea_11", 0, "");

AddUseItemCallback("", "key", "unlock", "unlockdoor", true);
}
void unlockdoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("unlock", false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door.snt", "unlock", 0, false);
RemoveItem("key");
AddEntityCollideCallback("Brute", "brute_go", "Monsterdisappear", true, 1);
}
void Monsterdisappear(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

}

Is anything wrong... Any typos any spelling mistakes any thing I should move, remove or change to get it to work properly???

So the area which activates the Brute is called brutey, the area in which the Brute walks is called brute_go. Check if the names are the same in the editor and make sure the areas are big enough.
Not sure if SetEnemyDisableTriggers("Brute", true); disables interaction with areas too.
You may try to add SetEnemyDisableTriggers("Brute", false); to "unlockdoor".

Code: (Select All)

void unlockdoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)

{

SetSwingDoorLocked("unlock", false, true);

PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door.snt", "unlock", 0, false);

RemoveItem("key");

AddEntityCollideCallback("Brute", "brute_go", "Monsterdisappear", true, 1);

 SetEnemyDisableTriggers("Brute", false); 

}

the door unlocks fine and he follows the track algoods too but he gets to the area and doesnt go away so ill check and change. Thanks for all help though

I realized when im in the room when he is on the mode where doesn't care and leaves you alone SetEnemyDisableTriggers("Brute", true); i can push him into the area and he disappears but when he clearly walks through him self he just turns around and goes back to the start of the track and repeats.
