[SCRIPT] SOLVED Collide function doesn't wanna work

[Neelke]

For some reason, my collide function isn't functioning properly. It's made by string variables to check if the correct things are pressed and so on.

Code: (Select All)

void ButtonPress(string &in asEntity)
{
    //Check which button that is currently being pressed
    if(asEntity == "button_simple_1")
    {
        SetLocalVarString("Brother", "CurrentTeleportCutscene");
        
        //Don't want the other buttons to be clicked at this point
        for(int i=0;i<5;i++) SetEntityInteractionDisabled("button_simple_" + i, true);
    }

void CollideChangeMap(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
    string sMapChange = GetLocalVarString("CurrentTeleportCutscene");
    
    if(sMapChange == "Brother"){
        ChangeMap("nomapyet.map", "TeleEnter_1", "", "");
    }
}

void OnStart()
{
     AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "AreaChangeMap", "CollideChangeMap", true, 1);
}

I have checked the name of the area and it is correct. Still doesn't wanna work. Just making sure here, is there anything wrong in the script?

Try changing "SetLocalVarString("Brother", "CurrentTeleportCutscene");" the other way around to "SetLocalVarString("CurrentTeleportCutscene", "Brother");" because the first input is the name of the string and the second is the value of the string.

That way (sMapChange == "Brother") returns true and the block of code can be executed.


That might be the issue. I'm not entirely sure though.

Your void ButtonPress isnt close correctly. You're missing a }

Raidex - That did it, it now changed map just as I wanted it to, thanks.

Lizard - For some reason that } wasn't copied over from my script, so yeah thanks for spending your time anyway
