Elevator when hit player go up

[<LT>YosemiteSam[NL]]

I have this code;

Code: Select all

main()
{
thread elevator();
}

elevator()
{
   speaker = getent("speaker_one","targetname");
   move_trig = getent("elevatorright","targetname");
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////
hit_trig = getent("hitright","targetname");
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////
   move = getent("elevatorright_base","targetname");
   move_trig enablelinkto();
   move_trig linkto(move);
   

   while(1)
   {
      move_trig waittill("trigger");
      move movez(282, 1.4);
      speaker playsound ("elevator_move");      
      move waittill("movedone");
      speaker playsound ("elevator_stop");      
      wait 2;
      move movez(-282, 1.4);    
      speaker playsound ("elevator_move");
/////////////////////////////////////////////////      
if ("hit_trig", user)
Go back up
wait 2;
go back down again
////////////////////////////////////////////////
move waittill("movedone");
      speaker playsound ("elevator_stop");
}
}

I know how to link that hit_trigger and I figured it had to be something like if
I want the elevator to go down but when the player is underneath and gets hit the elevator should go up again.
Any ideas ? I wish I could script better

[waywaaaard]

Ok I can think of a solution but this would require some work.

Basic Idea:

The script that you have stays almost the same we only add an endon("elevator1_hit_player").

In a 2nd thread we link a new trigger that is below the elevator to it so it moves with up and down. If this trigger got triggered we notify("elevator1_hit_player") so the normal thread will end. Now we move the elevator up and start the other thread again.

That this will work we need to work with moveTo and a script_origin otherwise we could not move the elevator to the position.

What you need todo:

1. Ungroup the elevator and delete the targetname
2. Then add the script_origin and make a new brushmodel out of it and give it the targetname
3. Add a new trigger below the elevator. Give it a targetname
4. Now we need the scripting

Ok, thx m8. I don't think I'll get it all done by myself but I'll see how far I'll get.
I'll get back to you on this one probably

good script

[<LT>YosemiteSam[NL]]

Ok I made this script (it's for two elevators, I'm only scripting one now as a test);
But I don't know how you can make the elevator out of a script_origin ?

Code: Select all

main()
{
thread elevator1();
thread elevator2();
thread elevator1_hit();
//thread elevator2_hit();
}

elevator1()
{
   speaker = getent("speaker_one","targetname");
   move_trig = getent("elevatorright","targetname");
   move = getent("elevatorright_base","targetname");
   move_trig enablelinkto();
   move_trig linkto(move);
   

   while(1)
   {
      move_trig waittill("trigger");
      move movez(282, 1.4);
      speaker playsound ("elevator_move");      
      move waittill("movedone");
      speaker playsound ("elevator_stop");      
      wait 2;
      move movez(-282, 1.4);    
      speaker playsound ("elevator_move");
      move waittill("movedone");
      speaker playsound ("elevator_stop");
      endon("elevator1_hit_player").  
}
}

elevator2()
{
   speaker2 = getent("speaker_two","targetname");
   move_left = getent("elevatorleft","targetname");
   moveleft = getent("elevatorleft_base","targetname");
   move_left enablelinkto(); 
   move_left linkto(moveleft);
   
   while(1)
   {
      move_left waittill("trigger");
      moveleft movez(282, 1.4);
      speaker2 playsound ("elevator_move");
      moveleft waittill("movedone");
      speaker2 playsound ("elevator_stop");
      wait 2;
      moveleft movez(-282, 1.4);
      speaker2 playsound ("elevator_move");      
      moveleft waittill("movedone");
      speaker2 playsound ("elevator_stop");
      //endon("elevator2_hit_player").
}
}
elevator1_hit()

   hit_trig = getent("elevatorhit","targetname");
   move = getent("elevatorright_base","targetname");
   hit_trig enablelinkto();
   hit_trig linkto(move);
   
   while(1)
   {
   hit_trig waittill("trigger");
   notify("elevator1_hit_player");

}
}

no just place a script_origin brush in the middle and select all brushes which belong to the elevator and make out of them a brush_model

[waywaaaard]

edit:

tested the script well atleast debugged it so it passes the lexer

Code: Select all

main(){

	thread elevator_init();
}

elevator_init(){
	
	// elevator 1
	thread elevator(getent ("elevatorright_base", "targetname"), 
							getent ("elevatorright", "targetname"), 
							getent ("elevatorhit", "targetname"), 
							getent ("speaker_one", "targetname"),
							"elevator1_hit_player");
}

elevator(elevator, move_trig, hit_trig, speaker, elendon){

	level endon(elendon);

	move_trig enablelinkto();
	move_trig linkto(move);
   
   thread elevator_hit(elevator, move_trig, hit_trig, speaker, elendon);

   while(1)
   {
		move_trig waittill("trigger");
		elevator moveTo((0, 0, 282), 1.4);
		speaker playsound ("elevator_move");      
		elevator waittill("movedone");
		speaker playsound ("elevator_stop");      
		wait 2;
		elevator moveTo((0, 0, 0), 1.4);   
		speaker playsound ("elevator_move");
		elevator waittill("movedone");
		speaker playsound ("elevator_stop");
	}
}

elevator_hit(elevator, move_trig, hit_trig, speaker, elendon){
	// all elevator parts and triggers

	hit_trig enablelinkto();
	move_trig enablelinkto();
	
	move_trig linkto(move);
	hit_trig linkto(move);
	
	while(1)
	{
		hit_trig waittill("trigger");
		level notify(elendon);
		elevator moveTo((0, 0, 282), 1.4);
		speaker playsound ("elevator_move");
		elevator waittill("movedone");
		
		thread elevator(elevator, move_trig, hit_trig, speaker, elendon);
		
		wait 0.5;
	}
}

omg thx m8 (have said that aloot lately )

I tested it bu I get this message;

Code: Select all

bad syntax: (file 'maps/mp/elevator_hit.gsc', line 18)
   endon(elendon);
   *

[waywaaaard]

see my edit

[<LT>YosemiteSam[NL]]

I changed this code;

Code: Select all

// all elevator parts and triggers

   hit_trig enablelinkto();
   move_trig enablelinkto();
   
   move_trig linkto(move);
   hit_trig linkto(move);
   

Into this;

Code: Select all

]// all elevator parts and triggers

   hit_trig enablelinkto();
   
   hit_trig linkto(move);
   

Cause i got error messages saying move_trig was already linked.
Nowi can start the map but when I jump onto the elevator it moves first in the "Y" direction (onto the place where the jumppads are) and from that place it goes up and down when triggered.

[waywaaaard]

Did you add the script_origin?

[<LT>YosemiteSam[NL]]

Script origin or an origin texture ? ahahahaahahah wait you meant link the whole alevator thingy to the script origin with "w"...right ?
I'll get back to you on that one...off to bed right now

[waywaaaard]

Ah my fault. Make a new brush and give it the origin texture. Now place it in the middle of your elevator. Select all brushes that are the elevator and the origin brush. Now make out of it a brush_model

[<LT>YosemiteSam[NL]]

Still here I did that cause I thought you meant it like that but still the elevator moves in the Y direction.
Do I first have to select the whole elevator and then the origin ? That doesn't matter does it ?

[waywaaaard]

try this

Code: Select all

main(){

	thread elevator_init();
}

elevator_init(){
	
	// elevator 1
	thread elevator(getent ("elevatorright_base", "targetname"), 
							getent ("elevatorright", "targetname"), 
							getent ("elevatorhit", "targetname"), 
							getent ("speaker_one", "targetname"),
							"elevator1_hit_player");
}

elevator(elevator, move_trig, hit_trig, speaker, elendon){

	level endon(elendon);
	
	default_origin = elevator.origin;
	
	move_trig enablelinkto();
	move_trig linkto(move);
   
   thread elevator_hit(elevator, move_trig, hit_trig, speaker, elendon);

   while(1)
   {
		move_trig waittill("trigger");
		elevator moveTo(default_origin + (0, 0, 282), 1.4);
		speaker playsound ("elevator_move");      
		elevator waittill("movedone");
		speaker playsound ("elevator_stop");      
		wait 2;
		elevator moveTo(default_origin - (0, 0, 282), 1.4);   
		speaker playsound ("elevator_move");
		elevator waittill("movedone");
		speaker playsound ("elevator_stop");
	}
}

elevator_hit(elevator, move_trig, hit_trig, speaker, elendon){
	// all elevator parts and triggers
	
	default_origin = elevator.origin;
	
	hit_trig enablelinkto();
	move_trig enablelinkto();
	
	move_trig linkto(move);
	hit_trig linkto(move);
	
	while(1)
	{
		hit_trig waittill("trigger");
		level notify(elendon);
		elevator moveTo(default_origin + (0, 0, 282), 1.4);
		speaker playsound ("elevator_move");
		elevator waittill("movedone");
		
		thread elevator(elevator, move_trig, hit_trig, speaker, elendon);
		
		wait 0.5;
	}
}
