disable regions?

[miguel]

hello to all,
in this room I´m working on I have a character walking to a place when the main character steps onto a region.
all works well, but I want it to just happen once.
is that possible?
can we still use stand over hotspot?
thanks

Ok, My first time of giving advice.

What you want to do is disable a hotspot, correct?
you can either do the code (I'm no good at coding)
Or, you could add the function
"Room-Disable Hotspot" and have that in whichever section in the Interactions Editor (Ie: "When player stands on hotspot", "looks at", ect)  after whatever you have happen first...    

Hope that helps.   As I said, my first try at helping.
Second post too.

thanks, but on the newer versions, "player stands on hotspot" became absolete
      or didn´t?

Yeah, I think youre right.   I just read about the newer version (I have version 5.54.)  Sorry about that.  

And I'm not sure.  In my version, it still has "Player stands on hotspot", But I think there should still be the
"Room-Disable Hotspot (Code> DisableHotspot (hotspot#)" and
"Room-Enable Hotspot (Code> EnableHotspot (hotspot#)"

As I said, I've got 5.54, and the newest one (In the Technical Fourn, I think) is something like "v2.55 beta 4" or something.

So, hope this is  helps.

Oh, and what you are looking for will probably be in the help/manual thing.

You can set a global int (for example global int 10) to 1 somewhere in your script and check if it has been set before running the script:

if (GetGlobalInt(10) < 1){

// your code

SetGlobalInt(10,1); }

That should make your code execute only once.
