Scripts not working

**Bozcovich** · 01-12-2012, 09:54 PM

Hey, ive recently started making a custom story (my first). I cant get the scripts to start working, i have a script to open a door with a key, but it doesnt work, and i have a script that gives the player a lantern in the begginning and that doesnt work either. Help please?

Here is the scripts:

Door:
void OnStart()

{
AddUseItemCallback("", "SUPER HAX KEY THAT SUCKS", "das door", "hax", true);
}

void hax(string &in item, string &in door)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked(door, false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", door, 0, false);
RemoveItem(item);

}

void OnEnter()
{

}

void OnLeave()
{

}

Lantern:

//===========================================

void OnStart()
{
if(ScriptDebugOn())
{
GiveItemFromFile("lantern", "lantern.ent");
SetPlayerLampOil(100.0f);

for(int i = 0;i < 10;i++)
{
GiveItemFromFile("tinderbox", "tinderbox.ent");
}
}
}

void OnEnter()
{
}

void OnLeave()
{
}
And i cant see the maps when i am in the folder if that is a problem. I have named the .hps file the same as the map.

Do you have two "void OnStart"s?

ALSO: This is in the wrong section. Should be in the Development Support.

Use this:

Quote:void OnStart()

{
AddUseItemCallback("", "SUPER HAX KEY THAT SUCKS", "das door", "hax", true);
if(ScriptDebugOn())
{
GiveItemFromFile("lantern", "lantern.ent");
SetPlayerLampOil(100.0f);

for(int i = 0;i < 10;i++)
{
GiveItemFromFile("tinderbox", "tinderbox.ent");
}
}
}

void hax(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("door", false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", "door" , 0, false);
RemoveItem("SUPER HAX KEY THAT SUCKS");

}

void OnEnter()
{

}

void OnLeave()
{

}

Whenever you are naming something in a field that has the word "string" in it means that you need to put the exact name of the thing you are describing as well as "" around the start and end of the text. I fixed it up for you.

Is it swing door or level door?

**Bozcovich** · 01-13-2012, 10:53 PM

Here is the scripts:

Door:
void OnStart()

{
AddUseItemCallback("", "SUPER HAX KEY THAT SUCKS", "das door", "hax", true);
}

void hax(string &in item, string &in door)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked(door, false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", door, 0, false);
RemoveItem(item);

}

void OnEnter()
{

}

void OnLeave()
{

}

Lantern:

//===========================================

void OnStart()
{
if(ScriptDebugOn())
{
GiveItemFromFile("lantern", "lantern.ent");
SetPlayerLampOil(100.0f);

for(int i = 0;i < 10;i++)
{
GiveItemFromFile("tinderbox", "tinderbox.ent");
}
}
}

void OnEnter()
{
}

void OnLeave()
{
}
And i cant see the maps when i am in the folder if that is a problem. I have named the .hps file the same as the map.

Instead of having this:
SetSwingDoorLocked(door, false, true);

Try this:
SetSwingDoorLocked("das door", false);

Or if its a level door:
SetLevelDoorLocked("das door", false);

peace out. hope it works!

That didnt work either, but i just tried this and it worked:

void OnStart()

{
AddUseItemCallback("", "SUPER HAX KEY THAT SUCKS", "das door", "hax", true);
if(ScriptDebugOn())
{
GiveItemFromFile("lantern", "lantern.ent");
SetPlayerLampOil(100.0f);

for(int i = 0;i < 10;i++)
{
GiveItemFromFile("tinderbox", "tinderbox.ent");
}
}
}

void hax(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetLevelDoorLocked("das door", false);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", "door" , 0, false);
RemoveItem("SUPER HAX KEY THAT SUCKS");

}

void OnEnter()
{

}

void OnLeave()
{

}
