Declaring an entity

[JPiiONEFOURONE]

Hey guys,

I am connecting a point light to a candlestick, so when the candlestick is lit by the player, the point light activates.



In my mapname.hps file, I have the following function.

Code: (Select All)

void LightCandle1(string &in asEntity)
{
    SetLightVisible(PointLight_1, true);
}

When I try to load the map, I get this error;



How do I fix this error?

Thanks,

How do I fix this error?

By converting the undeclared variable into a string.

You could always set the pointlight to 0, 0, 0, 0 and put it into the ConnectedLight field. This way, when the candle is lit, the pointlight will take on the color of the candle.

by declaring pointlight1 so make it this:
SetLightVisible("PointLight_1", true);

You could also write the name of the point light in "COnnected Light", it works, trust me

As Steve said. To "Declare" is what i just did with the word: Declare. You put it between these " " 2 fellows.

No thanks, I'm an atheist.
