NEED HELP!!! plz answer. - ZxBrad - 04-11-2011

I dont know what im doing wrong. This stuff is confusing.
all i want is a door to close behind me and my character to spin around and look at it. Heres the my script for it. The game keeps giving me an error when i try to start up the map.

////////////////////////////
// Run first time starting map
void OnStart()

{
SetMessage("Journal", "start", 8.0f);
AddUseItemCallback("", "doorkey_1", "castle_1", "UsedKeyOnDoor", true);
AddUseItemCallback("", "exitkey_1", "metal_1", "UsedKeyOnDoor", true);
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player" , "ScriptArea_1" , "MonsterFunc1" , true , 1);
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "doorslam", "Collidedoorslam, true, 1);
}

void Collidedoorslam(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

{
StartPlayerLookAt("castle_2", 6, 8, "");
SetSwingDoorClosed("castle_2". true, true);
}

void UsedKeyOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)

{
SetSwingDoorLocked("castle_1", false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", "castle_1", 0, false);
RemoveItem("doorkey_1");
SetSwingDoorLocked("metal_1", false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", "metal_1", 0, false);
RemoveItem("exitkey_1");
}

}

What is the error message?

RE: NEED HELP!!! plz answer. - MrBigzy - 04-11-2011

AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "doorslam", "Collidedoorslam, true, 1);

You're missing a ". This is why I made that thread about scripting errors, these errors are so common. Tongue

Also:

SetSwingDoorClosed("castle_2". true, true);

A period instead of a comma D:

Your'e looking for these:
Code:
void PlaySoundAtEntity(string& asSoundName, string& asSoundFile, string& asEntity, float afFadeTime, bool abSaveSound);
void AddTimer(string& asName, float afTime, string& asFunction);
void StopPlayerLookAt();
