How to make encounters?

[sacroid]

Hmmm... PathNode doesn't seem to work, the despawn area works perfectly, I throw a box into the despawn area to "distract" him and make him go there and when he steps the area he dissapears, so that's perfect, but the waypoint isn't working! :S
Here is the script, I'm so sure something is wrong:

Code: (Select All)

void OnStart()
{
    
        AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "ScriptArea_1", "CollideScriptArea_1", true, 0);
    AddEntityCollideCallback("servant_brute_1", "ScriptArea_2", "CollideScriptArea_2", true, 0);
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_brute_1", "PosNodeArea_1", 0, "");
    
}

void OnEnter()
{
}


void CollideScriptArea_1(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
    
    SetEntityActive("servant_brute_1", true);

}

void CollideScriptArea_2(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
    
    SetEntityActive("servant_brute_1", false);
    
}

It's a simple fix It is not PosNode you are supposed to use (those are for ropes if memory serves me right), it is PathNode that you are supposed to use.

Check a map from Amnesia to see how you should spread them out (what a good distances between each node is) and also to see how they should be aligned to the floor.

Oh! How can I be so dumb? haha, thanks Jens! I'll check the original Amnsesia Maps
By the way, I'm going to publish this test map later and see your opinions about my first day with the editor

I tried doing the same as Sacroid with trying to make a zombie spawn if an area of type script is touched but no matter how I do so he just won't spawn? I have his active boxed ticked off. I have unticked all the boxes in the area section of the Script Area.

here is my script :< Btw corpseroom = the script area, cannibal = name of the monster




void onStart()
{
AddUseItemCallback("", "strangekey_1", "cellar_wood01_2", "UsedKeyOnDoor", true);

AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "corpseroom", "Collidecorpseroom", true, 1);
}


void UsedKeyOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("cellar_wood01_2", false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", "cellar_wood01_2", 0, false);
RemoveItem("strangekey_1");
}



void onEnter()
{

}

void Collidecorpseroom(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("cannibal", true);
}

void OnLeave()
{

}


could someone please tell me where I have gone wrong I've been at it for hours! thx

the enemy will disable by himself when he has walked his path and you are not in a position where you can see him.

Is that true? If so, nice ^^ Thanks

Try this Ethril.

Code: (Select All)

void onStart()
{
AddUseItemCallback("", "strangekey_1", "cellar_wood01_2", "UsedKeyOnDoor", true);

AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "corpseroom", "Collidecorpseroom", true, 1);
}


void UsedKeyOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("cellar_wood01_2", false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", "cellar_wood01_2", 0, false);
RemoveItem("strangekey_1");
}

void Collidecorpseroom(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("cannibal", true);
}


void onEnter()
{

}

void OnLeave()
{

}

if you have it onEnter() the engine will run the script as soon you enter the map.
