Touch an entity/item and something is triggered? - HeadyBoy - 07-16-2012
I am a newbie at Amnesia story making and I have been only scripting for about 2 days now.
I'm trying to make, let's say, a sound happen (which I know how to do) for when I pick up maybe, a tinderbox. I'm not entirely sure on how to do this. See I've been using
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player","AREANAME","FUNCTION",true,1);
I have only been triggering sounds when a player goes into a new area but I havent wanted to experiment just in case I screw up something.
What would I do if I wanted to pick up a tinderbox and that triggered any kinda growl?

For the most part when you want something to happen when the player picks up an item, its basically the same concept you just need to use SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback("Name_of_Tinderbox", "Function", false);
Edit: the callback syntax is(string &in asEntity)
RE: Touch an entity/item and something is triggered? - Ongka - 07-16-2012
Code:
void OnStart()
{
SetEntityCallbackFunc("ENTER_TINDERBOX_NAME", "FUNCTION_NAME");
}
void FUNCTION_NAME(string &in asEntity, string &in type)
{
PlaySoundAtEntity("growl", "notice.snt", "Player", 0, false);
GiveSanityDamage(7.0f, true);
}Change the names how you'd like them.
