"Area" behaving like an item to be picked up. - laakkone - 09-21-2013

So yeah, I'm new with Amnesia editor, but I managed to create Area, where music starts playing when you step into it, and stops when you step out. But thats not the thing.

When I'm inside of the area box, the hand appears like there is item to be picked up, like I was in a huge invisible box with no collision, but being able to touch it. Which leads to that I can't touch anything, e.g. open doors when I'm inside of the Area. I got two screenshots to show you the problem.

The script fills the whole room on the second picture where player is standing. I hope you guys know how to fix this.

Thanks !

Can you post your script for the map please?

This happens if the area type is set to 'Examine' instead of 'Script'

Do you have an interact callback set for the area in the level editor?
