single use trigger per user.

[KemiX]

I would love to try, but I dont understand anything about that scripten.. I can do actionscript but not that

[Nightmare]

Well what you could do is make a trigger_once but that would make it so only the first person in the whole server could make it work. I'm sure its possible but I dont know how.

Ok, this is the way I like to do things. Make a trigger that covers the spawn areas (so, touching the spawns) then make it a trigger_multiple with targetname "start" and then make a trigger_use for the finish button called "finish". Then try this code.

Code: Select all

main()
{
thread start();
}

start()
{
start = getent("start","targetname");

start waittill("trigger",user);
user thread finish_trigger();
}

finish_trigger()
{
finish = getent("finish","targetname");
finish waittill("trigger");

if(!isDefined(self.finishedmap))
{
iprintlnbold(self.name + "^7has completed the map!");
self.finishedmap = true;
}
}

Try that, see if you get any problems (I cannot test for myself atm)

drofder.....you amaze me, that works perfectly and credit will given to you on my loading screen, now that i know that code...im sure i can find lots of simliar uses for it......realy greatful

Good good
Ejoy

Very nice, i knew Drofder would have an answer for this

tbh, the script is VERY basic.

its just people dont think about creating their own vairables (such as "self.finishedmap").

[Drofder2004]

Well, what im on about is the "self.<variables>"

easily used...

self.boolean = true; // or false;
self.integer = 123; //etc
self.string = "Hello";

you can even double the variables for example...

self.string.one = "Hello";
self.string.two = "Welcome";

You can use anything. You will notice most things that are map specific are...

level.<something> = <something>;

All variables must be defined before you use them... eg

You cannot do

if(self.boolean == false)
iprintln("Blah");

if self.boolean has no value (you will get an error). so you must "declare" them, simply using the method above...

<variable> = <value>;
self.finishedmap = true;

Ja?

[Nightmare]

wow drof, I'm amazed at how simple you kept it, good job

[creator]

is it also possible to make:
trigger_once instead trigger_use
so it works only ones per person
or will it only work 1 time?
cause i dont want it to be a button so just be activated wen u walk thru it.

[Drofder2004]

trigger_once does what it says.

It can only be triggered once (usually used in SP, for missions)

[creator]

so how i make a trigger that be activated only once by 1 player
so everyone can walk in it and it only be triggerd ones

[creator]

...
so how i make it:
it only triggers ones per person
so if i walk thru it it works
if u walk thru it it works
if i walk again thru it it doesnt work
how can i do that wat i need to use?
trig_multiple?
or cant be possible?
