How to make a script text for maps
1. Make a new text document.
2. Change the extension to .hps
3. Make sure the name of your hps and map file are the same.
4. Notepad or some other text documents WILL not recognize it. Use a default program to open it.

Now, begin scripting!

I already have a script file, and the correct functions for activating the point lights. I was trying to ask for more detail on how to use the callbackfunc box in the editor to run a the below function:

Code: (Select All)

void cornerlight(string &in asEntity, string &in OnIgnite) {
    SetLightVisible("hallway_light", true);
}

I want to avoid having a SetEntityCallbackFunc for each light in the script file itself. AKA Get rid of:

Code: (Select All)

SetEntityCallbackFunc("candlestick_wall_5", "cornerlight");
SetEntityCallbackFunc("candlestick_wall_6", "cornerlight");

Sorry for being unclear.

Mini tutorial for connecting lights :

You do not need to set the light inactive in neither the level editor, nor in the script.

Set the point light colour to black (0, 0, 0), and write the point light name where it says ConnectedLight in the candle properties.

The ConnectionLightAmount is the amount the pointlight will change when the candle is lit. It takes the colour of the candles light, multiplies it by the amount (in this case 0.3), then adds that to the point light. So if you want a candle to significantly increase the point lights colour, then you would put in a high value.

For the smaller candle, I put a lower ConnectionLightAmount.

OH. Now I see what you guys meant by setting it to black. Thanks a lot, now my script is half the size
