Locking A Room!

I was just wondering if there is any way to lock a room until a certain item or centian items are found please help !!

Thanks Simon

I don't think that you can lock a room but you could check if the player has these items and then enable the hotspot (or whatever you use for changing the room).

It would look like this:

Code: ags

// script for Room: Repeatedly execute

if (player.InventoryQuantity[InventoryItem1Name]==1 && player.InventoryQuantity[InventoryItem2Name]==1 && ...)
 {
  hDoor.Enabled=true;
 }

Or rather, put this script in where you want the room change to be triggered (e.g. "Any click on hotspot", although I wouldn't recommand that  )

Code: ags

if (GetGlobalInt(1)==1) //your conditions
  player.ChangeRoom(2,5,17); //Put the room change here

else
  player.Say("I can't go there right now!"); //what you want to happen if the conditions are not met

As easy as pie. Easy pie.

You are right, Akatosh. It's better to use the click feature for hotspots, cause then the door is also clickable, when you haven't the items you need.

They pretty much HAVE told you how & where to use them...

// script for Room: Repeatedly execute

put this script in where you want the room change to be triggered (e.g. "Any click on hotspot"

You need to add a 'Run script' interaction in the Interaction Editor. After that, you can insert the code as Lt. Smash and Akatosh suggest.

Let us know if you have ay specific problems after that.
