[SCRIPT] Naming Items.

[Genshien]

alright,im a noobie at scripting for amnesia but i found no error with this code.


<LANGUAGE>
<CATEGORY Name="CustomStoryMain">
<Entry Name="Description">This is a test [br]</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
<CATEGORY Name="Inventory">
<Entry Name="ItemName_Key1">Weird Key</Entry>
<Entry Name="ItemDesc_Key1">Must be for a nearby Door.</Entry>

</CATEGORY>

<CATEGORY Name="Journal">
<Entry Name="Note_Note01_Name">Good Evening</Entry>
<Entry Name="Note_Note01_Text">I need to find my lantern....maybe i
left it in the study? The key lays at rest.</Entry>

</CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>

The script for naming and giving a description to my key is not working correctly.
The map loads fine and the note loads fine aswell.

when i pick up the key it says "Picked up"
I have the CustomSubItemTypeName set to Key1

however its not working....need some help with this one guys

Ok nevermind guys,i found the issue....now im trying to fix this key unlocking the door script.


/===========================================
// Starter's Script File!
//===========================================

//===========================================
// This runs when the map first starts
void OnStart()
{
AddUseItemCallback("", "key_tower_1", "mansion_3" "UsedKeyOnDoor", true);
}

void UsedKeyOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("mansion_3", false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door.snt", "mansion_3", 0.0f, false);
RemoveItem("key_tower_1");
AddDebugMessage("KeyOnDoor", false);
}

//===========================================
// This runs when the player enters the map

void OnEnter(){

}
//===========================================
// This runs when the player leaves the map
void OnLeave()
{
}


The key isn't opening the door....i've looked at several how-to's but im still confused on how this is supposed to go

AddUseItemCallback("", "key_tower_1", "mansion_3", "UsedKeyOnDoor", true);

You're missing a comma, is all.

[Genshien]

void OnStart()
{
AddUseItemCallback("", "Key", "mansion_3", "UsedKeyOnDoor", true);
}

void UsedKeyOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("mansion_3", false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door.snt", "mansion_3", 0.0f, false);
RemoveItem("Key");
}



Updated the script,still doesn't work correctly.
Key is the name of the key entity,im not using the CustomSubItemTypeName


mansion_3 is the name of the door.

Since i don't see anything wrong with the second posted script (first one, aside from the missing comma, had an improperly initiated comment), and since you claim the entities names are correct, i have to ask: Is the name of the script the same as the name of the map that it relates to? Also, does the hpl.log provide any insight?

[Genshien]

dear god i feel so stupid right now

i named the map Test and the hps file Test.hps thinking the extension didn't count.

turns out i renamed the script file Test same as map and all my scripts work now.

im a dunce haha
