Teleporter problem [Solved]

i cant get teleporters to work... ive done the tutorial from penguin, but still no resalt...

tut
Hidden/Spoiler:
There's about 3 topics on teleporters, Since search isn't working i'll post a quick tutorial.

1: Open ZE, create a region that when entered you will teleport from. For tutorial purposes, I've named it 'TeleporterRegion'

2: Create a new path. just place 1 node and name it something that you can remember, For tutorial purposes, I've named it 'TelporterNode'

3: Open your .lua in which you want the teleporter to work.

4: Add this piece of code inside the 'function ScriptPostLoad()' just before 'End'

Code:
OnEnterRegion(
function(regIn,character)
MoveEntityToNode(character,"TeleportNode")
end,
"TeleportRegion"
)
ActivateRegion("TeleportRegion")


5: Scroll down to the bottom of your Lua, and add this piece of code after the last End 9should be last thing in your script)

Code:
function MoveEntityToNode(entIn,pathIn,nodeIn)
if not entIn then
print("Warning!: Entity not specified for move")
return false
elseif not pathIn then
print("Warning!: Path not specified for Entity " .. entIn .. " move")
return false
end

local node
if nodeIn then
node = nodeIn
else
node = 0
end

local locDest = GetPathPoint(pathIn,node)
local charUnit = GetCharacterUnit(entIn)
if charUnit then
SetEntityMatrix(charUnit,locDest)
return true
end
return false
end


6: Munge and test, If it works, have a cookie! (no chocolate ones)
my lua

do you name the node or path TeleportNode? i named the path

I think your nodes and paths are setup right.
But make sure that you put your region "name"(In this case TeleporterRegion) in the Region Property/type box.
Not the more logical Region name box. That's the way regions work in BF2.
Go figure :?

ty... he he forgot to put it in Property/type box... my bad


now i get this:


Message Severity: 3
C:\Battlefront2\main\Battlefront2\Source\LuaCallbacks_Mission.cpp(3247)
Path "TeleportNode" node 0 out of range [0..0)

I'd guess your path doesn't have any nodes. It needs at least one node.

If you keep having problems, I wrote a teleporting script because everyone was having problems implementing that tutorial. You can find the post on how to use it here: http://www.gametoast.com/forums/viewtop ... 63#p199663 (scroll up in the topic for the download link). It hasn't been 'finsihed' because I yet to write a full readme for it, but the code works well and it keeps your lua looking less cluttered.

this might also be a solution
inside the 'function ScriptPostLoad()
doesnt it need to be UNDER scriptpostload?

It's inside(Or under, for you none-scripters (Although I guess it should be under, since there's no close to scriptpostload?)

If you were to put it IN it, then it would be insert :P
