I made 9 nodes and their named like: PosNodeArea_1, PosNodeArea_2, PosNodeArea_3 etc. And the script file looks like this

void monsterspawn(string &in asEntity)
{
    SetEntityActive("monster_key_keeper1", true);
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_1", 0.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_2", 0.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_3", 0.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_4", 0.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_5", 0.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_6", 0.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_7", 0.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_8", 0.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_9", 0.0f, "");
}

If it doesn't work, try this. Otherwise, you don't need to look at this. :p

void monsterspawn(string &in asEntity)
{
     SetEntityActive("monster_key_keeper1", true);
     for (int x = 1; x > 0 && x < 10; x++)
     {
          AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_"+x, 0, "");
     }
}

Can you explain this please?. Because I want to learn how to script ^^

RE: Anyone need help?

Alright. First let me tell you a little about scripting.

Amnesia uses a type of scripting language that is similar to C++. It is called AngelScript.

A "for" statement is used to make multiple instances of something.

For example:

int x;
// an integer called x

for (int x = 1; x > 0 && x < 10; x++)
// So int x is equal to 1. x has to be greater than 0 and x has to be less that 10. Making 9 instances of x. Then increment x by 1 each time, and once x is greater than 9, the "for" statement is disabled. Thus creating no more instances of x.

for (int x = 1; x > 0 && x < 10; x++)
{
AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_"+x, 0, "");
}
// This creates 9 patrol nodes, each with a different "PosNodeArea_"+x.

This is how it would look like without a "for" statement:

AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_1", 0, "");
AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_2", 0, "");
AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_3", 0, "");
AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_4", 0, "");
AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_5", 0, "");
AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_6", 0, "");
AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_7", 0, "");
AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_8", 0, "");
AddEntityPatrolNode("monster_key_keeper1", "PosNodeArea_9", 0, "");

For more information on some scripting, go to my thread:

RE: Anyone need help?

Thanks for the help Smile.
But regarding the second question i wrote.

When i pass a script a certain door takes enough damage that it destroys.
And
A entity moves from point A to point B.

Do you know how to make a script for these kind of stuff?.
If you want me to be more clear please tell me.

How can I make it so it uses Justine's player files and not Daniel's? I mean the .ogg files that are "player_female_jump1" and that goes to 5. Please help. Thanks in advance.

If you go to "config" under the Amnesia file, there are "game.cfg" and "ptest_game.cfg".

If you want to, copy the Jump, Crouch, and Stand sounds from below into your "game.cfg" under the specified subtitle from below.

You can change it much more easier when you are making a full conversion, but if you want to change it permanently, open the "game.cfg" and open "ptest_game.cfg". In the "ptest_game.cfg", scroll down until you find the subtitle "<Player_Movement_Normal", there are these lines:

JumpSound = "player_female_jump"
CrouchSound = "player_crouch"
StandSound = "player_stand"

Copy them and then paste under the subtitle in your "game.cfg" file under the same subtitle. If you want to, you can change all the other movement speeds and whatnot.

Sorry if I sort of repeated myself. :p

P.S. You can remove these 3 lines from your "game.cfg" if you want to switch back to Daniel. Smile

Alrite... How can I change them if I make a full conversion?

Well you can do this:
void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "DoorSlamArea", "CollideDoorSlam", true, 1);
}

void CollideDoorSlam(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
StartPlayerLookAt("door3", 10, 50, "");
AddTimer("", 0.5f, "TimerSlamDoor");
SetEntityActive("ParticleSystem_1" , true);
}
void TimerSlamDoor(string &in asTimer)
{
SetSwingDoorClosed("door3", true, true);
GiveSanityDamage(4.0f, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "react_breath_slow.snt", "Player", 0, false);
AddTimer("", 2.0f, "TimerStopLook");
}

void TimerStopLook(string &in asTimer)
{
StopPlayerLookAt();
}
}

AddTimer("", 2.0f, "TimerStopLook");
}

void TimerStopLook(string &in asTimer)
{
StopPlayerLookAt();
}
}

This looks like it would close the door and not open it.
