Ok, once again time for my random troubles.
I have been trying for the past few months to get a animation of a door to go up and block off a passage when you destory a panel, and to go back down when you fix the panel. (I know that my animation works because I can use FC to run the command PlayAnimation("") in game)
Here is my scirpt:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- ScriptInit
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
function ScriptInit()
animateobja = OnObjectKill(
function(object, killer)
if GetEntityName(object) == "panel1" then
PlayAnimation("wdown")
end
end
)
killobjc = OnObjectKill(
function(object, killer)
if killer and IsCharacterHuman(killer) and GetEntityName(object) == "panel1" then
AddAssaultDestroyPoints(killer)
end
end
)
ReadDataFile("dc:Load\\common.lvl")
The names of the Animations and objects are as follows:
wup: Animation to raise the door up.
wdown: Animation to lower the door.
panel1: Panel object.
I looked at Mav's "Trigger animation on destruction of object?" topic on the FAQ, and that is where I got the scripting for this.
I figured I would work out the acctual work of the panel and animation before I added in the animation reseting script work.
I am pretty sure I messed up the input of the object/animation names or added all the LUA work to the wrong section of the script. Any help?

Your functions should go before function ScriptInit().

No, they are currently afterfunction ScriptInit(). And being after function ScriptPostLoad() is the same thing as being before function ScriptInit().

When using a conquest script make sure your functions go after conquest:Start() but before the PostLoad end.
You script should look like this:
function ScriptPostLoad()
--Stuff like CP setup or whatever
conquest:Start()
animateobja = OnObjectKill(
function(object, killer)
if GetEntityName(object) == "panel1" then
PlayAnimation("wdown")
end
end
)
killobjc = OnObjectKill(
function(object, killer)
if killer and IsCharacterHuman(killer) and GetEntityName(object) == "panel1" then
AddAssaultDestroyPoints(killer)
end
end
)
end

But the map is not Conquest, it is Eli/Assault.

@AQT My bad, I read your post wrong. Sorry.

The same goes with any game mode, so the stuff must go after conquest:Start(), or ctf:Start(), or TDM:Start() in your case.

It still doesn't work. When I destory the panel (correctly named) the animation does not play..
(Thx for the info on the "end" though, I can't believe I missed that.)

Please post a screenshot of your animation's settings in ZE. Also, please post a screenshot of the panel in ZE with its name and object type displayed.

Umm how? When I save an image on Zero Edit it shows the objects but not the any of the tool bars. And Print Screen button only works for SWBF2 ingame.

PrntScrn just copies your current display to the clipboard.

Not for me... (Or am is it because I am trying to paste it off the clipboard?)

here is an easier way. search snipping tool in the start menu. Open it, drag around ZE, save as .png, and upload to dropbox.
try script poastload see if that works.
And being after function ScriptPostLoad() is the same thing as being before function ScriptInit().
