Look at Script function - Gamemakingdude - 11-09-2011
Hi, i am trying to make it when you look at an script area a message appears on the screen.
PHP Code:
////////////////////////////
// Run first time starting map
void OnStart()
{
//Add the Lantern and 10 Tinderboxes when in Debug mode, always good to have light!
if(ScriptDebugOn())
{
GiveItemFromFile("lantern", "lantern.ent");
for(int i=0;i<10;i++) GiveItemFromFile("tinderbox_"+i, "tinderbox.ent");
}
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player","ScriptArea_1","RollCredits",false,1);
AddUseItemCallback("","wooden_bucket_filled_1","ScriptArea_1","PutOutFire", true);
}
void PutOutFire(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity) {
SetEntityActive("SignArea_1",false);
SetEntityActive("Key_Cabinet",true);
DestroyParticleSystem("ParticleSystem_1");
SetEntityActive("ScriptArea_1",false);
}
void Fire(string &in asEntity, int alState) {
if(alState == 1) {
SetMessage("Observation", "Fire", 2.0f);
}
}
void InfectedAppear(string &in asEntity) {
SetSwingDoorLocked("cabinet_metal_1", true, false);
SetSwingDoorClosed("cabinet_metal_1", true, true);
AddTimer("0",1.5f,"InfectiveActive");
}
void InfectiveActive(string &in asTimer) {
SetEntityActive("character_infected_alpha_1",true);
}
////////////////////////////
// Run when entering map
void OnEnter()
{
}
////////////////////////////
// Run when leaving map
void OnLeave()
{
}

SetEntityPlayerLookAtCallback

Its doing it from the Level editor?
RE: Look at Script function - Your Computer - 11-09-2011
You should practice doing it through scripts, it would be more maintainable this way.
If you say that your lang file is correct, that you have a category named "Observation" and an entry named "Fire", then in your level editor are you sure you typed in "Fire" in the PlayerLookAtCallback field? Are any .map_cache files interfering?

Use sign areas. You'll need a lang file entry.
If you want it to disappear after being looked at once, add a lookat callback to the sign area. I believe they do work as script areas as well. You know the drill. If state == 1 set the area inactive or turn on a timer to set the area inactive. Be creative
Enjoy!
