Monster activation newb

[zaggnut]

i am trying to learn/practice scripting by activating a grunt and have it follow path nodes. i can load my map fine but when i enter the script area nothing happens. i believe the names of my entities/areas match between the .map and .hps .... i need someone that has mastered the dark arts of scripting

i spent like 2 hours trying to do this simple task.
is there anything wrong with my syntax or something?


////////////////////////////
// Run first time starting map
void onstart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "Scr_enemyspawn1", "MonsterFunction", true, 1);
}

void MonsterFunction(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("Grunt_1", true);
AddEnemyPatrolNode("Grunt_1", "PathNode_1", 0, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("Grunt_1", "PathNode_2", 0, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("Grunt_1", "PathNode_3", 0, "");
}

////////////////////////////
// Run when entering map

void OnEnter()
{

}

////////////////////////////
// Run when leaving map

void OnLeave()
{

}

Good thing to know is:

Monsters do follow pathnodes, even if they aren't in the script.
If you have a lot of pathnodes in every room and corridors, and set the monster to go to 1 specific pathnode then it will pass the closest pathnodes to get to the scripted one
