RE: -Simple- key open door

Fun with scripting! Assuming you have a basic understanding of how to write scripts, it will need to look like this:


void OnStart()
{
AddUseItemCallback("", "NAMEOFKEY", "NAMEOFDOOR", "NAMEOFFUNCTION", true);
}

void NAMEOFFUNCTION(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("NAMEOFDOOR", false, true);
RemoveItem("NAMEOFKEY");
}

If you already have an OnStart function in your script, add the "AddUseItemCallback" to it.
NAMEOFKEY - Replace with the name of your key

NAMEOFDOOR - Replace with the name of your door

NAMEOFFUNCTION - Can be named anything you'd like

I rate it 3 memes.

RE: -Simple- key open door

It keeps saying Item cannot be used this way.

This is what I have:


void OnStart()
{
AddUseItemCallback("", "key1", "door1", "OpenS", true);
}

void OpenS(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("door1", false, true);
RemoveItem("key1");
}

See anything wrong?

Keyname: key1
Doorname: door1

RE: -Simple- key open door

Have you checked the file name of the HPS file to see if it matches the file name of the MAP file?

Ofcourse i have, i have checked everything.

Heck, desperately i've even copied the script from another custom story to see if it works, still no.

RE: -Simple- key open door

Did you make an hps file by renaming a text file .hps? I'm pretty sure that doesn't work; you need an hps file template to work with.

I've got that alredy! It's the same problem with the closet, Cannot use item this way. Dammit this is slowing down my development every day Sad
