Issue making script work

Been trying to make a simple script that activates a few torches when the player enters an area.
I've made sure the area has the same name as what is being called. I've recreated that area too.

Tried a few different settings for the Lit command. None of the torches change at all.

The script:
    // This runs when the map first starts
    void OnStart()
    {
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "AreaLightsOn01", "LightsOn01", true, 1);
    
    }
    
    void LightsOn01(string& asName, bool abLit, bool abEffects)
    {
    SetLampLit("torch_static01_1", true, false);
    SetLampLit("torch_static01_2", true, false);
    SetLampLit("torch01", true, true);
    SetLampLit("torch_static01_4", true, true);
    SetLampLit("torch_static01_5", true, false);
    SetLampLit("torch_static01_6", false, true);
    SetLampLit("torch_static01_7", true, false);
    SetLampLit("torch_static01_8", true, false);
    SetLampLit("torch_static01_9", true, false);
    }

    //===========================================
    // This runs when the player enters the map
    void OnEnter()
    {
    }

    //===========================================
    // This runs when the player leaves the map
    void OnLeave()
    {
    }

Any ideas? Smile


Edit: I tried adding a screen function to the event. Nothing happened. So I'm assuming the script isn't being called at all. Though I couldn't start the map when I wrote in incorrect syntax, so it should be loading the script file OK.

RE: Issue making script work

How about void LightsOn01(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

This is the one you should use everytime you call a function when colliding with an area.

Trying is the first step to success.

That appears to be the right one.

Infrequently active. Don't expect an immediate response. Best to contact me at a different locale. If I create a thread, expect me to be quite active.

Thank you so much! Smile

Works like a charm now!
