[SCRIPT] HELP! Image, Key, and Door - Not working!

[RurouniMori]

Okay, so what I'm doing is building a level piece by piece. First, I built one room, saved all that as one custom story. I copied all that into a new custom story. Then I built another, added in more details and effects, saved all that as one custom story. Copied it all again, and started refining it, and intend to add onto that. And again, save that as one custom story. This way, if I add onto the story piece by piece, I don't lose it all if something happens, or I can retrace all my steps to see where I went wrong.

But this last time, I changed the message for when the player looks at the door. And when I tested it, the message works, but everything else doesn't. The monster doesn't appear when the key is picked up, as I scripted it to, and the key doesn't work on the door anymore. So what I then did, was go through and rename everything in the script AFTER I renamed the key and the door in the level editor. But it still doesn't work. I have no idea what I did wrong.

The second custom story was called PracticeTwo. This new one is called My Lord's Curse.

This is the code for PracticeTwo:

Sorry to make a wall of text here. I assume I made derpface mistake somewhere in there or a common error. Either way, if someone could let me know what I did wrong and help, that would be splendid. As well as maybe some tips for the future.

ALSO! I'm having a silly little issue. I can't seem to get the image to show up for my custom story.

Here's the code:

<Main
ImgFile = "curse.png"
Name = "My Lord's Curse_1"
Author = "RurouniMori"

MapsFolder = "maps/"
StartMap = "mylordscurse_1.map"
StartPos = "PlayerStartArea_1"
/>

The image file is a 'png' and it's located in the same folder as the custom story folder, named "My Lord's Curse". I did try putting the image file as:

ImgFile = "My Lord's Curse/curse.png"

But it didn't work. I'm not sure what else the issue may be, and it's such a silly little problem, lol, but my brain is derping hard and drawing a blank.

Thanks to anyone who helps!

The reason why picking up the key doesn't spawn the monster, is because you put the SetEntityCallbackFunc in the EffectFlash function, which never gets called (so the callback function is never set). In your script for PracticeTwo, you put the SetEntityCallbackFunc in OnStart, which is a function that gets called when the player enters the map for the first time (the callback function is set).

I'm not really sure why your image doesn't show up, but try changing the image to a .jpg file, and see if it works then.

[RurouniMori]

Ah thanks a bunch! And yes, changing the image to a jpeg did in fact help.

The working of image, key and door can be stopped due to several reasons during this application. But this problem can be solved by refreshing and restarting the application.
