what;s wrong??


AddEntityCollideCallback("Player","Area ","lantern");




void gothrough(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
if(HasItem("lantern") == true)
{

SetEntityActive("block", false);


}


}


i actually want: if player has lantern he can go throuh ''Area''

This is wrong: AddEntityCollideCallback("Player","Area ","lantern");

That function takes 5 parameters, not 3; look at the declaration (this is the declaration, not how you call it!):

Code: (Select All)

void AddEntityCollideCallback(
    string& asParentName,       // your "Player" parameter
    string& asChildName,        // your "Area" parameter
    string& asFunction,          // callback function - your "lantern" parameter <---- watch it!
    bool abDeleteOnCollide,     // pass either true or false here
    int alStates                     // check the docs to see what to pass here (either -1, 0, or 1)
    );

Next, if you want the gothrough() function to be called by the game when the player and the area collide, then you have to specify it's name "gothrough" instead of "lantern" above - otherwise the engine will look for a callback function called "lantern", and it will never call this function.

Also, when you have troubles, always describe the errors in more detail - what did you expect to happen vs what actually happens, what are the error messages, if any, etc...

P.S. BTW, if you need a bit more guidance, the proper way to call AddEntityCollideCallback() is (asuming you want gothrough as your callback):
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "Area ", "gothrough", true, 1);
