Making grunt active and patrol on key pickup - craazyy1 - 03-12-2012

So I watched "ThisIsYourComputer"'s vid "Activate monster upon key pickup" on Youtube, and followed the instructions, but when I try to load up the map, this appears:

I'm guessing you'll need the script it's trying to run:

I just started learning this stuff, so I still don't know that much, sorry for any obvious mistakes...

Code:
void OnStart()

{

  SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback("key_study_1", "ActivateMonster", true);

}

void ActivateMonster(string &in item)

{

  SetEntityActive("servant_grunt_1", true);

  AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_grunt_1", "PathNodeArea_1", "0", "idle");

  AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_grunt_1", "PathNodeArea_2", "0", "idle");

}

void OnEnter()

{

}

void OnLeave()

{

}

try this, your code wasn't anywhere. It didn't know whether to start when you leave a map, when you enter a map, or when it simply starts.

Thanks for quick response, but still doesn't work. Sad

Same error, different lines,
6,3 and 7,3

Also, is there a way to run the client and not have it close everytime it fails to load. Think I saw something like that on the wiki, can't remember where.

Strings aren't integers or floats.

Meaning it should be like this:

void OnStart()
{
SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback("key_study_1", "ActivateMonster", true);
}

void OnEnter()
{

}

void OnLeave()
{

}

void ActivateMonster(string &in item)
{
SetEntityActive("servant_grunt_1", true);
AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_grunt_1", "PathNodeArea_1", 0, "idle");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_grunt_1", "PathNodeArea_2", 0, "idle");
}

Or- You had AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_grunt_1", "PathNodeArea_1", "0", "idle");
Should be: AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_grunt_1", "PathNodeArea_1", 0, "idle");

Not sure what you mean Your computer, but I got it to work.

Had some things in quotation marks that weren't supposed to be in quotation marks. What I hate about scripting is that a small error, can ruin everything...

Edit: Guy above kind of ninjad me...
