Fadein help

Code: (Select All)

if (GetTimerTimeLeft(FadeTimer) == 0));
        FadeIn(5);
        SetPlayerActive(true);
    }

How do I make that work?

I'm not the best with if functions to be honest, but I have an IDEA:

Code: (Select All)

if (GetTimerTimeLeft("FadeTimer") == 0);{
FadeIn(5);
SetPlayerActive(true);
}

For starters, you might want to get rid of the semicolon at the end of the if statement. Secondly, timer callbacks get called when they reach 0 time left anyway, so why check for 0 time?

I fixed the semicolon after I pasted the code. I didn't realize the timer launched the function automatically.
Problem is still persisting.

Help please?

[Statyk]

Did you check my example for testing?

Help please?

With what? Isn't the code example inside a callback, specifically a timer callback that loops?

Yes I did, it didn't work. I ended up fixing what you pasted, and have:

Code: (Select All)

void StartGame() {
    if (GetTimerTimeLeft("FadeTimer") == 0)) {
        FadeIn(5);
        SetPlayerActive(true);
    }
}

That code gives me two errors though, on these lines:

Code: (Select All)

PlaySoundAtEntity("big_clock_chime", "Custom\big_clock_chime.snt", "clock_grandfather_1", 0, false);

Code: (Select All)

if (GetTimerTimeLeft("FadeTimer") == 0)) {

Help with my timer not calling my function. I don't know what you mean, exactly.

Can I see your whole .hps so I can see your callbacks?
