Triggering with a mover elevator

[Garreth]

I made a elevator it has 3 floors, When the elevator comes close to a door there is a block that moves trough a trigger multiple block wich is supposed to controll the 3 floors doors, but nothing happens, i dont think a trigger reacts on a mover.

Normaly the trigger should react, i have made arrow triggers like that.

How can i controll doors on 3 floors to open and close?

Are you open to scripting?

 

There are spawnargs you can place on the atdm:mover_multistate_position at each floor:

 

"call_on_arrive" "<script function name>"

 

"call_on_leave" "<script function name>"

 

When the elevator arrives at a floor, the m_m_p at that floor will call the "call_on_arrive" script function.

 

When the elevator leaves, the m_m_p at that floor will call the "call_on_leave" script function.

 

Each of these script functions can trigger whatever activities you want to occur when arriving or leaving.

[grayman]

For example, you might have on the m_m_p:

 

"call_on_arrive" "ArriveFirstFloor"

"call_on_leave" "LeaveFirstFloor"

 

And the script functions could just open/close the elevator doors.

 

void ArriveFirstFloor()
{
    $ElevatorDoorLeft1.Open();
    $ElevatorDoorRight1.Open();
}

void LeaveFirstFloor()
{
    $ElevatorDoorLeft1.Close();
    $ElevatorDoorRight1.Close();
}

I get an error when i run the script

 

File "<string>", line 1

void ArriveFirstFloor()

^

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

 

 

 

 

void ArriveFirstFloor()

{

$atdm_mover_door_sliding_1.Open();

$atdm_mover_door_sliding_4.Open();

}

 

void LeaveFirstFloor()

{

$atdm_mover_door_sliding_1.Close();

$atdm_mover_door_sliding_4.Close();

}

 

 

i dont know anything of scripting.

[grayman]

Do you get the error when the map is loading, or when the script runs after the elevator arrives?

 

PM me the script file, please.

a

 

void main()

{

sys.print("map script running.\n");

}

 

is needed as the last function in the script file, else you get a script error.

it always goes at the end of the script file, its primaly use is to run scripts needed at start of map, eg like a clock with hands.
