CheckPoint issue and memento.

[sabrinagsoledad]

Hi.

I just started an outside map. And I put some scripts on it... Now... dont know whats wrong because the game DONT crash!... but one memento and the chekpoint dont work... I try lot of things to make it change but nothing make it hapens.
Here is the WHOLE script in the map.

void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "AreaOfDeep", "Drowned", true, 1);

AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "AreaWaterMemento", "EventWaterQuest", true, 1);

AddEntityCollideCallback("WoodenBoardItem1", "ScriptWooden1", "PositionFirstBoard", true, 1);
AddEntityCollideCallback("WoodenBoardItem2", "ScriptWooden2", "PositionSecondBoard", true, 1);
}

void EventWaterQuest(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
AddQuest("area", "watermemento");
}

void ElevatorNotWorking(string &in asEntity, int LeverState)
{
if(LeverState == 1)
{
AddQuest("Elevator", "cantuseelevator");
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "elevator_lever_min", "Lever", 0, false);
SetLeverStuckState(asEntity, LeverState, true);
}
}

void Drowned(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
CheckPoint("Checkpoint1", "PlayerStartArea_1","", "DeathCategory", "Deathtext");
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "impact_water_high3", "Player", 0, false);
}


void PositionFirstBoard(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("WoodenBoardItem1", false);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "04_place_wood.snt", "ScriptWooden1", 0, false);
SetEntityActive("WoodenBoardJoint1", true);
}

void PositionSecondBoard(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("WoodenBoardItem2", false);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "04_place_wood.snt", "ScriptWooden2", 0, false);
SetEntityActive("WoodenBoardJoint2", true);
}

The watermemento and the chekpoint are not working...
The Memento.. When the character enter to the script area "AreaWaterMemento" the little journal icon in the bottom appears, but when I open it there is nothing wrote on it.
(I DID WRITE THE CODE IN THE EXTRA_LANG file!!), here it is...

<Entry Name="Quest_watermemento_Text">I should be careful, the lake is deep and the flow is too high tonight </Entry>
</CATEGORY>

The other thing is the ChekPoint, the area where player collides is "AreaOfDeep", and its suposed when the character enters there he dies (drowned) and then teleport, but when I enter to the area nothing hapens.

Please whats wrong with the scripts to make them not work???

thanks

Does the custom story description (in the menu) appear correctly?

Also, could you post the full extra_english.lang ?

As for the checkpoints.
If you add a checkpoint somewhere, it won't kill the player.
You just say that you want player to spawn at "PlayerStartArea_1" and display certain text.

To kill a player, use:

PHP Code: (Select All)

SetPlayerHealth(0.0f);

Put that command after the CheckPoint setup.

And about that .lang

• “DeathCategory” <-- These quotation marks cannot be used!
  
• Do not use ENTER to get to new line, use [br]. If you write that, it will get to the new line.
  
• Really? </CATEGORY ... Finish your Tags.
