I could think of a few ways, but honestly I'm too hangoverish to elaborate on that right now. Why don't you PM Alan v.Drake and ask him how he did it?

Did you just write down the DoorClosed_UseInv() event or did you link it from the events pane via the lightning bolt icon? Make sure you've done the latter.

Another thing that might be of interest to you is that you can set and change the blocking area of objects using object.BlockingHeight and object.BlockingWidth.

The function is empty when it's created. But if you just use Girl_Useinv instead of Girl_AnyClick (and ActiveInventory instead of CursorGraphic), then everything should work just fine.

Edit: Like this.

Code: ags

function cGirl_UseInv()
{
  if (player.ActiveInventory==iTeddyBear) {
  // whatever
  }
}

[i]

If dragonlily is an object, it needs an "o" before the name, but you can't add objects to the inventory anyway, only items. That would look like this:

player.AddInventory (idragonlily);

The walk command must be a blocking one:

player.Walk(160, 100, eBlock);


Edit: Yeah, what monkey said.

That's awesome.

..and sad, Berlin-Eugene is quite a distance.

Happy one, Ben.

You can solve this by enabling/disabling walkeable areas. This should help:

Count me in as a beta tester.

What, you wanna replace the Heroes2-Zombies? Shame on you.

Just kidding, this looks like it could be fun and Pinback is definitely the man for the job!

Many thanks, FSi, it works like a charm! I was a bit lost using the visual c thingy anyway..

I tried to put a } before that line and it will enter game

Yes, sorry, I forgot one brace.

it doesn´t say it´s locked when interacting without key

Hm, I don't see a mistake here..

and after interacting with key, it wont teleport to the other room, what do you think it´s wrong here?

In my code the player has to interact the door again after using the key. This should do it:

Code: ags

  if (doorlock) {
    cEgo.Say ("I unlocked the door");
    doorlock=false;
    player.ChangeRoom(3, 477, 477);
  }

Btw thank you for your time.

No problem, despite this being basic stuff that could be looked up using the search function
But now I gotta go to bed..

Oh and please use the code-tags. Just quote my post to see how it's done.

Code: ags

bool doorlock=true; // put this at the beginning of the room script

function hHotspot2_UseInv() // Player uses key on door
{
if (cEgo.ActiveInventory == iKey){
  if (doorlock) {
    cEgo.Say ("I unlocked the door");
    doorlock=false;
  }
  else cEgo.Say ("The door is already unlocked.");
}

function hHotspot2_Interact() // Player interacts with door
{
if (doorlock) cEgo.Say ("It's locked.");
else player.ChangeRoom(3, 477, 477);
}

Now the player can't open the door unless he uses the key and after he used the key the door stays open and he goes through by interacting with the door.

Thanks, I'll try that out.

Use a variable like this:

Code: ags

bool doorlock=true

// interact with door:
if (doorlock) cEgo.Say ("It's closed.");
else cEgo.ChangeRoom(x);

// use key on door:
doorlock=false;

Maybe your explosion is too big

Haha, maybe 

I don't know if there is a fix, be you could try to rename the file.

There is no file with that name and I don't know where I used that name. As I said I can't open the game anymore and thus can't change any name..

I opened one of my games the first time after quite a few months and got this error message:

An error occurred whilst trying to load your game. The error was:

Invalid script name; name must only include letters, numbers and underscores: EXPLO_groß

If you cannot resolve the error, please post on the AGS Technical Forum for assistance.

I don't recall changing anything the last time I had the game open.. so maybe the newest AGS version has a problem with "ß"? The problem is that I can't open it anymore..

So, if anybody is wondering: I'm in too, but my nick isn't Matti, it's MudTea (which is roughly how my name should be pronounced in English).

Unfortunately, my laptop is acting up a bit, so I won't be around too often. I'll check out what you guys build from time to time though.

w00t for Find/Replace in entire project.

Seconded! The loop stuff is pretty cool too. No time to check it out right now though..
