How to activate a 'Puzzle completed' script - Quotentote - 01-20-2012

PHP Code:
void OnStart()
{

AddEntityCollideCallback("book_01", "bookarea_1", "book1", true, 1);
AddEntityCollideCallback("book_02", "bookarea_1", "book2", true, 1);

///BOOKS
void book1(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("book_01", false);
SetEntityActive("book_001", true);
PlayGuiSound("impact_book_med1.ogg",10.0f);
}
void book2(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("book_02", false);
SetEntityActive("book_002", true);
PlayGuiSound("impact_book_med2.ogg",10.0f);
} 

How do i activate the 'puzzle completed' script (like spawning a key or something)
the player has no regular order to do it (so he could do the book2 thing first, then book1)

greetings

Do you mean you want book 1 to be put in first, then book 2?

no. he can do it random. i just need a help with the check function: when every book is placed (no matter in what order) i want to start a new script

Ok, give me a minute of testing

Make a new function with the complete script in it. Then place the function inside an if-statement for every book collide areas.

Example:

PHP Code:
void BookComplete()
{
    Blahblah events..
}

void BookCol1(string &in...)
{
    if(x == 1)
{
    BookComplete();
}
} 

That's how I do it. Wink

Ok, i've done it.

void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "bookarea_1", "book1", true, 1);
AddEntityCollideCallback("book_02", "bookarea_1", "book2", true, 1);
SetLocalVarInt("Var01", 0); //THIS MAKES A COUNTER
}

void book1(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("book_01", false);
SetEntityActive("book_001", true);
PlayGuiSound("impact_book_med1.ogg",10.0f);
AddLocalVarInt("Var01", 1); //THIS ADDS 1 TO THE COUNTER
if (GetLocalVarInt("Var01") == 2) //THIS CHECKS IF THE COUNTER =2
{
[CODE IN HERE]
}
}

void book2(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("book_02", false);
SetEntityActive("book_002", true);
PlayGuiSound("impact_book_med2.ogg",10.0f);
AddLocalVarInt("Var01", 1); //THIS ADDS 1 TO THE COUNTER
if (GetLocalVarInt("Var01") == 2)//THIS CHECKS IF THE COUNTER =2
{
[SAME CODE IN HERE]
}
}

Probably not the most efficient way, but it works.

When the "Counter" = 2, it will call whatever you have in the CODE IN HERE or SAME CODE IN HERE space.
NOTE: WHAT EVER GOES IN THE FIRST CODE SECTION, ALSO GOES IN THE OTHER, WORD FOR WORD OR IT PROBABLY WILL NOT WORK!

If you just read through this tutorial.

It will eventually sink in. Very useful when it comes to puzzles Big Grin
