This is completely possible, guys.

All that you need to do is script into the enemy's AI is a check for an activation value that the switch will give them. If that activation value is met, then run the "Destroy AI' on the enemies.


Example and untested scripts:

For your switch, make this script-



Obviously, this switch cannot be turned off... I mean, you don't want to bring your guys BACK to life, do you?

Now put this line near the bottom of your enemy's Main AI script:



Now in your switch's properties, put the name of your enemy entity in the "IfUsed" field.


Tada!!! Now, when you press the switch, all the enemies with the name you gave the switch will die!!!


Hope that helped, Orrion.

Nope, could you make it a script that I can download instead? I'm still new to making scripts.

Well, Orrion, the bad part about that is I don't know which AI script you are trying to use for your enemy. I tried to give you a general solution so that you could do it yourself.

I'll see if I can find time to actually test it and make it work. If you can wait until then (or if someone else can come to help), I'd be happy to make this for you.

Answer:

Because forcing a barrel to blow up without the player shooting it would be hard to do.

I'm using the shoot10 script for the enemies and I made a modifided switch script of switch1.

Quote: "I'll see if I can find time to actually test it and make it work. If you can wait until then (or if someone else can come to help), I'd be happy to make this for you."


Yeah, I can wait... How long would it be? If it's longer than november 10th... I'm screwed. But, thanks for making this script for me.

Okay first things first... the "switch script" I gave you is not to be put into another script... that's just the whole script for the switch, lol.

And... for the enemy AI, just put that line of code I gave you right above the ";End of script" line in the AI code. Underneath all the other lines of script.


Now, also make sure you put the name of your enemy into the switch's "IfUsed" property. If you didn't, then the enemies won't be effected by the switch.

Yeah, I did that with that enemy AI script.

I didn't know the switch was surpose to be it's own script... Still, I have no idea on how to write a script... I would really appriciate it if you made it a script for me... Thanks.

Its quite easy....

Just change this:
Spawn at start - no.
Spawn after delay - yes.
Spawn life - 1 (seconds)
---EDIT---
Mostly the barrel is dynamic...but its settings with explosion is
disabled...so
Change the
Explodable - no to yes.

Also:
If key used - (trigger here)


And also:
If you want it to be just transparent...like its not a barrel
thats suddenly spawned(which looks weird)...
Than you can make a black (0,0,0...rgb) 256x256...or lower
texture....and apply that as texture...
So it would spawn...but....its transparent, therefore it looks like an explosion that came out of nothing? or maybe a bomb...etc..

Almost forgot...
Name the entity for example - 1.
And add to the trigger:
If used - 1.


Hope it helped...


Cheers,
Cheese Cake.

Ah, nice! I had no idea that when an explodable object's spawn life reached 0 that it would blow up!

Very clever, CC.

Yeah plystire, i also wanted a effect that when you walked in a
triggerzone that suddenly something would blow up.

And i am no good at scripting, so didnt checked it in scripting...
But thought of another idea.


Anyway hope it was the effect you needed Orrion Carn.

Cheese Cake.

Well, not so much as an explosion I needed... I need that you pless a switch and *Suck* all the air out of the room... Killing all of the people in the next room, but, you in a suit that protect you, with it's own air tank... So, that's kinda what I needed it to do... With the effect that I just explained.

If that's what you need then you may want to give my script another go, because it should kill the enemies without an explosion once the switch is pressed.

Okay, I got it to work and I did some revisions to make it look better.

Put these lines of code right after the ";Triggers" line in your enemy's Main AI as well as their Shoot AI:




Now, here is the entire script for your switch. (I'm assuming you're using a non-animating switch... the ones that just change their textures)



Now REMEMBER to put the name of your enemy into the switch's "IfUsed" property, otherwise this won't work!


Enjoy!
