Hey I am trying to add points to a players score when they enter a region and I dont think what I have so far will work.
Heres my codepiece:

Code: Select all

		OnEnterRegion(
    function(regIn,character)
    ScriptCB_SetPlayerStatsPoints( Playerpoints )
	SetProperty("Playerpoints",  Playerpoints+5)
    end,
    "megapoints"
    )

Could someone knowledgeable explain how to do this correctly?
thanks! :]

I'm not a Lua expert and could be 100% wrong, but:

Shouldn't "megapoints" be in front of: "end,"? I imagine that ending the function then trying to do something isn't going to work. I don't know, correct me if I'm wrong.

Also: I think you have to create a custom ingame.lvl if you are going to use the "ScriptCB_" function. I could be wrong though...

Everything is good. And to add points, you can put

Code: Select all

AddAssaultDestroyPoints(character)

Ok, thanks!

Megapoints is the name of the region you enter to get points

Problem solved

Revised code for those who are interested:

Code: Select all

      
OnEnterRegion(
    function(regIn,character)
  AddAssaultDestroyPoints(character)
    end,
    "megapoints"
    )

Note: "megapoints" is the region name
