[SCRIPT] How to make a "Wait" in the script.

[Putmalk]

With void OnEnter() you are missing an end bracket "}".

Had an additional end bracket at the end of "TimerLight".

The code should look like this to end:

Code: (Select All)

////////////////////////////
// Run first time starting map
void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player" , "ScriptArea_1" , "LightOn" , true , 1);
}


////////////////////////////
// Run when entering map
void OnEnter()
{

}

void LightOn(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
    //we don't need this callback here, this is will only mess up the code
    //AddEntityCollideCallback("Player" , "ScriptArea_1" , "LightOn" , true , 1);
    
    StartPlayerLookAt("LookFrame", 20, 50, "");
    
    SetLampLit("candlestick_1", true, true);
    SetLampLit("candlestick_2", true, true);
    //an alternate, time-saving way to do this is:
    /*
    for(int i=1;i<3;i++) //for loop will run when i is 1 and 2 only
        SetLampLit("candlestick_"+i, true, true);
    */
    //for 2 that isn't necessary but if you were lighting say 30 candles, this is almost a must!

      AddTimer("light1", 0.5f, "TimerLight");
      AddTimer("light2", 1, "TimerLight");
      AddTimer("stopeffects", 1.2f, "TimerLight");

}

void TimerLight(string &in asTimer)
{

       if(asTimer == "light1")
       {
            SetLampLit("candlestick_3", true, true);
            SetLampLit("candlestick_4", true, true);
       }
       if(asTimer == "light2")
       {
            SetLampLit("candlestick_5", true, true);
            SetLampLit("candlestick_6", true, true);
       }
       if(asTimer == "stopeffects")
       {
            StopPlayerLookAt();
       }
}

////////////////////////////
// Run when leaving map
void OnLeave()
{

}

That should be correct, but if you get another error just let me know.
