Frictional Games Forum (read-only) - Problems Trying To Script

I've been trying to make it so the player hears a loud noise and stares at this closed door but I don't how to make the player stop looking any ideas?

Where do you want the player to hear this load noise? What kind of load noise? Specific noise? ID/Name of closed door?

I'll try my best.

Code:
OnStart()

{

AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "ScriptArea_1", "Function01", true, 1);

}

void Funtion01(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

{

StartPlayerLookAt("[door name]", 2, 4, "");

AddTimer("", [however long you want the player to look at door], "StopLooking");

}

void StopLooking(string &in asTimer)

{

StopPlayerLookAt();

}

That's mostly all I can do for now.

Well the player was supposed to unlock the door to the cell which is working and then there is a locked door next to a open one but I wanted the crashing sound to play from the locked one using the script which I have got working although I cant find out how to stop the player from staring at the door making the rest of the level awkward

You add this:

Code:
AddTimer("", [however long you want the player to stare], "PlayerStareStop");

Also add this for the function that goes with the timer:

Code:
void PlayerStareStop(string &in asTimer)

{

StopPlayerLookAt();

}
