Amnesia Editor: Scripting

[Aweno]

'Right.

-Hey, y'all two-two, 'I'm new on these forums, 'and-- I'm not set to where in the forums to post this thread about my problem I've tiredly trying to solve, 'and-- I'ven't find a solution to this point.

'So, I'm working on a custom-story for Amnesia: The Dark Descent, 'it's called 'Decay' - and for the rooting beginning, I've built a cellar, 'typically close to the 'Wine Cellar' in the original story, 'which's identical to a blocked-out mine, 'but, yeah - you wake up in a wooden-framed bed, and stagger off to find a lantern inside of the dirt-blocked 'corridor', then you find a letter, 'where you see that someone's written an evident 'last note' or 'last words', where they've corded their death to a cave-in from inside a mine-shaft, 'which belongs to the story, 'but-- here's the deal, you find a key, 'but in order to get to the door that the key's supposed to basically unlock, 'you've to get through the mine's 'cellar'-door, 'and you don't've a key.

-Look at this, 'I want the player to, 'as he picks up a tinderbox or examines a box close to the door's frame he's/she's scripted to go down onto the player's knees, or lie down, 'to check the empty space below the door and the door-frame, 'and there's where the one playing's to find a crowbar, 'but I've no idea how to do this, 'I know that I'm driving to use two commands with 'headpos-- or 'rollheadto'-something, 'I know how to use .hps fairly well, 'but I'm not sure how to make the player - 'when he/she picks up the tinderbox - to get on their knees and look below the door's empty space, I've tried it, 'and I'ven't found any good way to use an 'examine'-area, 'or any way at all to do this. 'My best try'd strike for the 'OnPickup' for the tinderbox, 'but I don't know how to execute the script...! 'I'd like some help with this, 'and I'm sorry for the long text, 'but, here it's.

-Here is my entire .hps-file...

'If you can assist me, 'please share that with me, I'd really like to continue this map, 'it looks good, so far.
