"KillObject()" Is not working [Solved! Yay!]

Hey, I have yet another code problem.
Everything about this code works, save the KillObject function.
Code: Select all
OnObjectKill(
function(object, killer)
local name = GetEntityName(object)
print("OnObjectKill():",name)
if name == "panel" then
ShowMessageText("mods.mymap.arefree")
KillObject("fence1")
KillObject("fence2")
end
end
)
(Ok, I know it's not very efficient, but I'll wait until everything works before I go down that path)
Help is greatly appreciated.

Make sure that yours objects "fence1" and "fence2" are in the correct layer on ZE.

They are in the BASE layer. Is that why it won't work?

KillObject works fine on objects. Are the fences ingame objects? mods.mymap.arefree is being displayed right?

Yes, everything about this code works. Well everything but the KillObject(). And yes, "fence1" and 2 are both objects ingame in the BASE layer.
EDIT: If it helps, I also have this, which does not work, but....
Code: Select all
OnObjectKill(
function(object, killer)
local name = GetEntityName(object)
print("OnObjectKill():",name)
if name == "panel" then
ShowMessageText("mods.mymap.arefree")
local name2 = GetEntityName(object)
if name2 == "fence1" then
KillObject("fence1")
end
local name3 = GetEntityName(object)
if name3 == "fence2" then
KillObject("fence2")
end
end
end
)

That makes no sense. You're trying to kill something that got killed. Also you're creating 3 variables (name, name2, name3) for the same thing (the killed object).
Not sure why the code in your first post doesn't work though. Post your Errorlog.

Not sure if that's the problem, but did you setup any health for your fences? I think they have to have health to be killable.

Entity "Fence1" is EntityProp, but need GameObject
Like I mentioned, it would only work on objects. You have your fences as props. Use objects instead and it will work.
