Hi there.

Can someone please point out what I'm doing wrong here? These objects are spawned using a triggerzone, but the delay refuses to work. I must be missing something stupid, I've had it work plenty of times before.

The triggerzone script is "Plrinzoneactivateused".

Cmon guys, help me out here. I've even shoved the delay to 1000 just to see what happens and it still appears instantly. I think I'm doing this all wrong.

Max at any time
maximum.

Not sure. that is strange, maybe make those 1?

Do you use Vanilla 1.15 FPSC? Use Apple Juice Mod! Totally free, and gives better speeds for your game!

Hi there.

I know that this wasn't a very long delay. I originally thought it was in seconds, then read it was in frames. And so, as i've said, I set it to 1000 and it made no difference.

Try taking it off the delay and setting the max at any time slot and the maximum spawn slot to 1.

Thanks for the suggestion, sadly didn't work.

Is there a script I could use instead that would allow me to set a timer before the object spawned?

I attempted to edit the appear1 script with a timer, however, the script only seems to handle transparency. The script itself doesn't seem to trigger the spawning of the object. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

maybe you should edit the plrinzoneactivateused script. Adding this one a timer.
tell me if this works

try this in the appear, it will give the illusion of a spawn

:state=0:setalphafade=0,state=1
:state=1,activated=1:setalphafade=100,runfpidefault

I think the SpawnDelay counts from when the game initializes, not from when it's activated. Do not quote me on this though, I'm not entirely sure.

It's not the world that turns against you, it's you that turns against the world.

I surely would like to know how to fix the "plrinzoneactivateused" script to include a timer as it doesnt work with the delay set in fpsc, and by the looks of it Im not the only one with this problem.

I don't know why I didn't think of editing the plrzoneactivateused script myself xD

Thank you Coffee Grunt who also suggested this and provided a script
