An interesting idea to a script.

If I were to take a guess to why it may not be working correctly...

1. Would the correct syntax be:

+ Code Snippet

:state=0,plrwithinzone=1:state=1

Remove the "activateifused=1" because player is using "B". Or does that matter?

2. Then it would be:

+ Code Snippet

:state=1:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=80,hudimagefine=gamecore\text\user\waterlood.dds,hudname=firstmessage,hudhide=1,hudmake=display
:state=1:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=80,hudimagefine=gamecore\text\user\text.dds,hudname=secondmessage,hudhide=1,hudmake=display,state=10

Instead of the above all on one line...

Then it's the rest...

Cheers

Mike

Thanks i'll try that.
let me explain what is actually wrong, it shows the first hud, but the second hud won't show after B. the first hud doesn't actually disapear

The source I usually turn to for a scripting issue is Plystire. He has so much knowledge that you can learn a lot from him (as well as others).
I am still learning the scripting, and most of the time the scripts I write it ends up being a syntax error where I've used a colon instead of a comma, etc.

I found this script in the forum for you. Perhaps this is close to what you may be looking for:

+ Code Snippet


;  Artificial Intelligence
;  Written by Leon Kennedy
;  Based on a script found in the Official Community Guide
desc = Multiple HUDs to display

;  Triggers
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=5,hudy=5,hudimage=gamecore\huds\yourhudimage.tga,hudname=yourhudname,hudhide=1,hudmake=display
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=5,hudy=5,hudimage=gamecore\huds\yourhudimage2.tga,hudname=yourhudname2,hudhide=1,hudmake=display,state=1
:state=1,plrdistwithin=50:hudshow=yourhudimage,state=2
:state=1,plrdistfurther=51:hudunshow=yourhudimage
:state=1:hudunshow=yourhudimage2
:state=2,plrdistfurther=51:hudunshow=yourhudimage,state=3
:state=2:hudunshow=yourhudimage2
:state=3,plrdistwithin=50:hudshow=yourhudimage2
:state=3,plrdistfurther=51:hudunshow=yourhudimage2
:state=3:hudunshow=yourhudimage

From this script, you approach an object and a hud comes up. You move away and approach a second time and a second hud comes up.

I'm certain you could use the same format but alter it to include your "scancodekeypressed" into the script, as well as sound.

Another great source of scripting is the Official Community Guide to FPSC. You can find it here:

http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=131868&b=21

There are some great scripts in this guide that you can learn from and manipulate to your needs. There are more scripts here:

http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=142864&b=23

Last, don't be afraid to experiment. That's how all of us learn.

Hope some of this helps.

Cheers

Mike
