Switch a light on when you enter an area?

Detect Player entering ScriptArea:

Code: (Select All)

void AddEntityCollideCallback(string& asParentName, string&  asChildName, string& asFunction, bool abDeleteOnCollide, int  alStates);

Calls a function when two entites collide.
Callback syntax: void MyFunc(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
alState: 1 = enter, -1 = leave

asParentName - internal name of main object
asChildName - internal name of object that collides with main object (asterix (*) NOT supported!)
asFunction - function to call
abDeleteOnCollide - determines whether the callback after it was called
alStates - 1 = only enter, -1 = only leave, 0 = both


Turn lamp on:

Code: (Select All)

void SetLampLit(string& asName, bool abLit, bool abEffects);

asName - name of the lamp
abLit - true = on, false = off
abEffects - true = use effects, false = don't use effects when turning on/off


Example:

Code: (Select All)

void OnStart()
{
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player",  "LAMPAREA", "CollideLAMPAREA", true, 1); //Add the callback for the  player (calls "CollideLAMPAREA" when entering)
}

void CollideLAMPAREA(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
    SetLampLit("MYLAMP", true, true); //Turn lamp on
}

I tried with
SetLightVisible(string& asLightName, bool abVisible);
first but it obviously didn't work.
Thank you though!
