If statements and entities - Lizard - 08-10-2012
Is it possible to use entities or area in if statements?
If it is, i would happy isf you could tell me how to do it.
This is what i've tried
void OnStart
{
SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback("potion_oil_1", "MonsterActivation", true);
}
void MonsterActivation(string &in asEntity)
{
if (("MonsterArea_1") == false)
{
SetEntityActive("MonsterArea_1", true);
}
else
{
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "grunt/enabled", "prison_2", 0, false);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "scare_slam_door", "prison_2", 0, false);
}
}
Thanks in advance

Well, you can use GetEntityExists, but this won't test if the entity is active or not. As for your MonsterActivation function, have you thought about comparing against the parameter asEntity?

Thanks for telling me about "GetEntityExists"
Now i got it working with doing this
void OnStart
{
SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback("potion_oil_1", "MonsterActivation", true);
}
void MonsterActivation(string &in asEntity)
{
if (GetEntityExists("MonsterArea_1"))
{
SetEntityActive("MonsterArea_1", true);
}
}
Just a quick question. is it possible to use a doors openamount in an if statement or in a script at all?

Do you plan on using that same MonsterActivation function for several maps? 'Cause that's the only reason i can think of to write it like that.
As for your "quick question", mess around with GetSwingDoorState.

But do you realize that GetEntityExists is going to always return true if the entity is in the map?

i set it so that it will only check if the area exist, when the player picks up a specific oil potion
