Script area does not activate
Hello guys.
See, I've got a really simple problem. It's weird how it won't work!

My script area doesn't activate when the Player collides with it.

Here's the code:
PHP Code: (Select All)
void OnStart()
{    
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "ScriptArea_1", "SpawnBrute", true, 1);
AddEntityCollideCallback("brute", "BruteDeSpawn", "DeSpawnBrute", true, 1);    
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "brutescare", "BruteWalk", true, 1);
}
void SpawnBrute(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{    
AddDebugMessage("Scriptarea works", true);    
SetEntityActive("brute", true);    
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "notice.snt", "brute", 0, false);    
PlayMusic("search_brute.ogg", true, 0.8f, 0, 0, true);    
SetMessage("SetMessage", "SM_Malo", 0);    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_1", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_2", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_3", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_4", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_5", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_6", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_7", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_8", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_9", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_10", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute", "PathNodeArea_11", 0.1f, "");
}
void DeSpawnBrute(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{    
SetEntityActive("brute", false);    
StopMusic(1.0f, 0);    
SetMessage("SetMessage", "SM_MaloGone", 0);
}
void BruteWalk(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{    
SetEntityActive("bruteoutside", true);    
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "notice.snt", "bruteoutside", 0, false);
PlayMusic("search_brute.ogg", true, 0.8f, 0, 0, true);    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("bruteoutside", "PathNodeArea_12", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("bruteoutside", "PathNodeArea_13", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("bruteoutside", "PathNodeArea_14", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("bruteoutside", "PathNodeArea_15", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("bruteoutside", "PathNodeArea_16", 0.1f, "");    
AddEnemyPatrolNode("bruteoutside", "PathNodeArea_17", 0.1f, "");
}
void OnEnter(){
}
void OnLeave(){
} 


The script is named ScriptArea_1 and is correctly placed. Here's a pic:

}

Yep. Added it and placed it as inactive behind a door, and then used pathnodes. The problem isn't the enemy, though. I don't even get a debug message showing that I entered the script area.


And flamez3, let me check. I will create a new one and post again in a couple of mins.


EDIT: Nope, doesn't seem like other scripts work.
