Want Enemies to Open Doors

[Dizturbed]

here's an example using an entity and an area collide..

PHP Code: (Select All)

AddEntityCollideCallback("grunt_1", "ScriptArea_4", "grunt2active", true, 1); 


why dont you just make a function that when the entity collides with the area, the door opens?

Correct me if im wrong

That was the first thing I tried. For some reason I can't get AddEntityCollideCallback's to work for enemies. Maybe it's got something to do with having to do type something special in the level editor???

(I can do AddEntityCollideCallback's for the player perfectly, but for some reason I can't get enemies to trigger them... )

Hey I can help u

void OnStart()
{
if(GetEntitiesCollide("grunt_1", "EnemyAtDoor") == true) && (GetSwingDoorLocked("door1") == false))
{
SetSwingDoorDisableAutoClose("door1", true);
//WITH THE NUMBERS I'M NOT QUITE GOOD SO EDIT SOME IF NEEDED//
SetMoveObjectStateExt("door1", 1.0f, 1.0f, 1.2f, 0.2f, false);
}
}

Hope it works now

EDIT: Make sure you named all entities correctly to avoid problems

i've checked the entity names tons of times and there's nothing wrong there... i really thought your code would work what with the disabling autoclose and all.... I am very frustrated that I've spent hours trying to do this and he just keeps breaking the door. I tried countless variations of your code with number tweaks and got the door to start opening... while he's breaking it down that is. But now he just breaks it down, like my hopes and dreams. all crushed and scattered on the floor... Here's what i've got now:

Code: (Select All)

void BrutePatrol(string &in asTimer)
{
    if (GetLanternActive()==true){
    //ShowEnemyPlayerPosition(GetLocalVarString("ActiveEnemy"));
    ShowEnemyPlayerPosition("brute1");
    }else{
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute1", "PathNodeArea_1", 3.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute1", "PathNodeArea_6", 0, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute1", "PathNodeArea_4", 0.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute1", "PathNodeArea_2", 10.0f, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute1", "PathNodeArea_4", 0.0f, "");
    
    AddTimer("BrutePatrol_timerWait", 0.0f, "BruteWait");

    }
    
}
void BruteWait(string &in asTimer){
SetEnemyDisableTriggers("brute1", true);
AddTimer("BrutePatrol_timer2", 14.0f, "BrutePart2");
}
void BrutePart2(string &in asTimer){
    SetEnemyDisableTriggers("brute1", false);
    if (GetLanternActive()==true){
    //ShowEnemyPlayerPosition(GetLocalVarString("ActiveEnemy"));
    ShowEnemyPlayerPosition("brute1");
    }else{
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("brute1", "PathNodeArea_3", 12.0f, "");
    AddTimer("BrutePatrol_timer1", 0.0f, "BrutePatrol");
    }
}

void CollideAreaTest03(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{

//OPEN THE DAMN DOOR YOU BRAINLESS IDIOT (this doesn't work)
    /*if(GetSwingDoorLocked("door1")==false){
    //SetMoveObjectStateExt("door1", 1, 0.9, 1, 0.2, true);
    //SetMoveObjectState("door1", 1);
    SetSwingDoorClosed("door1", false, false);
    }*/
        if (GetEntitiesCollide("brute1","EnemyAtDoor")==true && GetSwingDoorLocked("door1")==false){
        SetSwingDoorDisableAutoClose("door1", true);
        //SetSwingDoorClosed("door1", false, false);
        SetMoveObjectStateExt("door1", 1.0f, 1.8f, 2.2f, 0.5f, false);
        
        }
}

Code: (Select All)

AddEntityCollideCallback("brute1", "EnemyAtDoor", "CollideAreaTest03", false, 1);
