Hello guys , i am trying to script a key to open a door.
I have looked for some tutorials and i found some.
But when i tried them, It didnt work for me.
This is what i did:
I have made a small room with a door and a key .
I have locked the door and named it "mansion_1".
I made a key and on name i called it "key_1" and in the entity i have called it "key1"
After that i have created this script.
And when i run this on game, the game crash.
////////////////////////////
// Run first time starting map
void OnStart()
{
AddUseItemCallback("", "key1", "mansion_1", "KeyOnDoor", true);
}

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

{
SetSwingDoorLocked(asEntity, false, true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", mansion_1, 0, false);
RemoveItem(asItem);
}


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

}

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

}

Any idea why its not working ?

PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", mansion_1, 0, false);

Should be quotations around mansion_1

Alright, i added quotations to mansion1 . now the game dont crash but the key doesnt open the door.
hmm ?

SetSwingDoorLocked(asEntity, false, true);


RemoveItem(asItem);

Declare these first.

They're already declared.

Double check your naming and removing all cache files for your map.

Other than that, I'll inspect closely later.

Be more specific. Is it saying "Cannot use item in this way!" or just fails to open it?

Alright i removed the cache file from my map, and ii tried again.
it says "Cannot use item in this way!"

and i checked the names everything is match.
