Custom Entities - 7heDubz - 03-04-2013

You'd just copy-paste that from the Script Functions page, huh? Anyway, how to make the script in the Script Functions page to turn into a script that can be put into the .hps file?
EXAMPLE:
From the Script Functions page;
PHP Code:
void StartEffectFlash(float afFadeIn, float afWhite, float afFadeOut); 
to
PHP Code:
void OnStart()
{
    SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback("ENTITYNAME", "FUNCNAME", false);
}

void FUNCNAME(string &in asEntity)
{
    StartEffectEmotionFlash("MessageCat", "MessageEntry", "ui_emotion_stone.snt");
} 
How to do it?

void OnStart()
{
SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback("ENTITYNAME", "FUNCNAME", false);

GiveItem("stone_hammer_chipper", "Puzzle", "stone_hammer_chipper", "stone_hammer_chipper.tga", 1);
}
