Secret Doors?

[flamez3]

SetMoveObjectState(string& asName, float afState);


Moves an object to a certain state.
asName - internal name
afState - state of the object, 0 = closed, 1 = open, values inbetween are valid too!

Here's how I would script it:

void OnStart()
{
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever1", "secretdoor");

}

void secretdoor(string &in asEntity, int alState)
{
if (alState == -1)
{
SetMoveObjectState("name_of_wall", 1);
}
}

Ok, i got the first bit, with the lever and the function, but i have a question or two.

if (alState == -1) - I shouldn't need to edit this line should I, and is -1 the lever when its down?

SetMoveObjectState("name_of_wall", 1); - Im using a moving bookshelf, but im leaving the wall there so that the shelf moves but the wall doesn't?


and how would i identify what direction the shelf_secret_door should move?

I thought you were just doing a secret door. Ok; With the lever, I'm not exactly sure what number is down (could be 1 or -1). You don't need to edit it. SetMoveObjectState would only work on the wall. A moving bookshelf is a different script.

I'll link you to a page that will help you with the bookshelf: http://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl2/tut...cretshelfs

How do you plan on making the secret wall opening if you are using a lever to open the shelf?
