RE: Crowbar won't work on door! help - Romulator - 12-23-2013 As silly as it sounds, had you activated the timer which has the AddUseItemCallback for the joint and the crowbar? If you cannot actually activate that timer, cut and paste those two lines of code and place them within your OnStart() routine, so that the callbacks are added when the map begins.

RE: Crowbar won't work on door! help - Romulator - 12-23-2013 No no, put them into an OnStart(). Like this: PHP Code: void OnStart() Put that anywhere in your code, and delete those two lines from the timer. Look at this topic, and actually read it. Although it is tough stuff, you need to understand what you are scripting. http://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl2/tutorials/scripting/crowbartutorialjenniferorange RE: Crowbar won't work on door! help - Radical Batz - 12-23-2013 (12-23-2013, 02:05 PM)Romulator Wrote: No no, put them into an OnStart().still didn't work :/ still gets me cannot use item this way! this is the updated hps void OnStart() { AddUseItemCallback("", "Crowbar", "Door", "UseCrowbarOnDoor", true); AddEntityCollideCallback("Joint", "AreaBreak", "BreakDoor", true, 1); } void PickupKey(string &in asEntity, string &in asItem) { AddQuest("quest1", "TestQuest"); AddTimer("", 0.5f, "NeverCalledTimer"); //Change the time as long as you want AddUseItemCallback("", "MasterBedroomKey", "bedroomdoor","UseMasterBedroomKey", true); AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "AreaMemento", "EventQuest", true, 1); } void UseMasterBedroomKey(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity) { SetMessage("message", "message1", 3); } void NeverCalledTimer(string &in asTimer) { AddTimer("", 1.1f, "TimerDoorStart"); } void UseCrowbarOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity) { RemoveItem(asItem); PlaySoundAtEntity("", "player_crouch.snt", "Player", 0.05, false); AddTimer(asEntity, 0.2, "TimerPlaceCrowbar"); } void TimerPlaceCrowbar(string &in asTimer) { SetEntityActive("Joint", true); PlaySoundAtEntity("", "puzzle_place_jar.snt", asTimer, 0, false); } void BreakDoor(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState) { SetEntityActive("Joint", false); SetEntityActive("Broken", true); SetSwingDoorLocked("Door", false, false); SetSwingDoorClosed("Door", false, false); SetSwingDoorDisableAutoClose("Door", true); AddPropImpulse("Door", 0, 0, 3, "world"); CreateParticleSystemAtEntity("", "ps_hit_wood.ps", "Areaeffect", false); PlaySoundAtEntity("", "break_wood_metal", "Areaeffect", 0, false); GiveSanityBoostSmall(); PlayMusic("10_puzzle01.ogg", false, 0.7, 0.1, 10, false); AddTimer("", 0.1, "TimerPushDoor"); } void TimerPushDoor(string &in asTimer) { AddPropImpulse("Door", -4, 2, 1, "world"); AddTimer("", 1.1, "TimerDoorCanClose"); } void TimerDoorCanClose(string &in asTimer) { SetSwingDoorDisableAutoClose("Door", false); } //void touchdoor(string &in asEntity, string &in type) //Where is it called at?

You might wanna rename some script areas and items in your map...

RE: Crowbar won't work on door! help - Romulator - 12-24-2013 Forces push objects according to their mass. Impulses don't, hence will push an object by a set amount. A large enough impulse will cause something to break :3 RE: Crowbar won't work on door! help - Radical Batz - 12-25-2013 well I started from scratch again with the crowbar code, but it still doesn't work! so goodbye for my custom story even though lots of people said "it looks amazing" and "best custom story ever", now it's deleted! I just don't know why the crowbar code won't work! I couldn't find the error anyway! happy Christmas guys and a happy new year! sigh it's always been my dream to make a custom story, but the stupid code crushed my dreams :'( |
