[BatteryAziz]

those lines you posted have a bad syntax ("local mycurtain" should be local.mycurtain) so the script probably didn't load and nothing happened. you'll know the script is running when you hear the ambient sound when you load the map. if there's no ambient sound, there's a typo somewhere in your script.

try this:

local.mycurtain = spawn script_model "model" "static/curtain.tik"
local.mycurtain.origin = (-615.75 -493.78 32.20)
local.mycurtain.angles = (9 90 0)
local.mycurtain.scale = 1.0
local.mycurtain notsolid
local.mycurtain nodamage
local.mycurtain show

i think animated .tik models won't show when using script_object, hence i suggest spawning a script_model instead. also to be sure, double-check if your origin coordinates are correct.

if it still doesn't work, narrow it down by trying to spawn some other model (ammo, machine gun, truck) and see if that works.

thanks for picking this up. I don't have time to play. remember when there's a negative ( - ) you have to put a space between it and the ( parentheses ) (99) vs ( -99)........ see ?

[neillomax]

here's a working script....... you can see where I put in relation to the whole script. I had to change the upper last number to raise it out of the ground ( it's in the court yard just above ground.).... had yo change angle ( first number because it was laying flat not up and down ) you need to change the middle and last numbers to move it to the doorway you want it in and to get it to face the right direction...... do not change the first number or it will not stand upright....... making it harder to see and find. ( YOU ALSO NEED TO MAKE IT NOTSOLID OR YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO WALK THROUGH IT. You can forget about the "immune" stuff. just delete it. Doesn't work without bounding boxes.

so remember just change the upper last number to get altitude.... it's at -82 now... making it -62 will raise it....... and by the time you get it to the height of that door way you will not be in negative territory but positive ( no - sign. ) everything after that is with angles...... middle and las nubers only....... don't touch the 0.00..........

Hi guys, since I do not remember anything about scripting I need help to fix this code:

Code: Select all

while(int(getcvar(InGameBuilder)) != 0)
	{
		if((getcvar(IGB_Display)) != "")
		{
			local.model = getcvar(IGB_Model)
			local.origin = waitexec global/strings.scr::split_line getcvar(Model_coords) 1 " "
			local.angles = waitexec global/strings.scr::split_line getcvar(Model_angles) 1 " "
			
			local.o1 = float(local.origin[1][1])
			local.o2 = float(local.origin[1][2])
			local.o3 = float(local.origin[1][3])
			local.v1 = float(local.angles[1][1])
			local.v2 = float(local.angles[1][2])
			local.v3 = float(local.angles[1][3])
		
			//add the object..
			local.obj = spawn script_model
			local.obj model local.model
			local.obj.origin = ( local.o1 local.o2 local.o3 )
			local.obj.angles = ( local.v1 local.v2 local.v3 )
			local.obj.scale = 1.0
			local.obj solid
			
			setcvar "IGB_Display" ""
			setcvar "Model_coords" ""
			setcvar "Model_angles" ""
		}
		wait 0.5
	}

let's suppose that I set ingame Model_coords as "111 222 333" and Model_angles as "0 0 0".
the console reports that local.origin[1][2], local.origin[1][3],local.angles[1][2] and local.angles[1][3] are NIL so I cannot cast them to float. I don't understand why they are NIL and not
local.origin[1][2] = 222
local.origin[1][3] = 333
local.angles[1][2] = 0
local.angles[1][3] = 0

Am I missing something?

[jefflev]

Thanks Neil you're the man. I understand it a lot better now.

Thanks again

[jv_map]

Could you post the implementation of the global/strings.scr::split_line function here?

[SilentAngel]

it's the one from Elgan:

Code: Select all

// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Used to split a line of words into a array of words. return with word count
// localinfo == line to split
// local.say = say to admins input detected or not, set 1 usualy
// local.spacer = What to use to split the line. If none is set then " " will be used.
// usage local.wordarray = waitexec global/strings.scr::split_line ( STRING STRING , CONSOLE FEEDBACK, STRING SPACER)
//
//eg
//  local.wordarray = waitexec global/strings.scr::split_line "hello_mummy" 1 "_"
// local.wordarray is a const array
//
// local.wordarray[1] = array of words
// local.wordarray[2] word count
// local.wordarray[3] full string with " " spaces
//
// local.wordarray[1][1] is 'hello'
// local.wordarray[1][1] is 'mummy'
//
// local.wordarray[2] is 2 'two words'
//
// local.wordarray[3] is 'hello mummy'
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PROBLEM SOLVED!

[jv_map]

Awesome, well done .

So, how did you solve it?

[SilentAngel]

did this:

Code: Select all

local.coords = getcvar(Model_coords)
local.origin = waitexec global/strings.scr::split_line local.coords 1 " " 

instead of this:

Code: Select all

local.origin = waitexec global/strings.scr::split_line getcvar(Model_coords) 1 " " 

[SilentAngel]

Someone have a idea to automatically break all windows on a stock map at start up?

[BatteryAziz]

i think the original line would've worked fine using waitthread, not waitexec

exec starts the script from scratch, but accessing a specific thread in another script file requires waitthread, at least that's been my experience.

anyway it's a moot point now

[neillomax]

don't know how to break them but this might do something

removeclass windowObject

OR

$removeclass windowObject
