Yeah, that's pretty simple..... I think.

For the triggerzone, use plrinzoneactivateifused.fpi for the main.
For the entity script, use default and add "activated=1:destroy".

Like so....

Could you not do this by setting the object you want to be destroyed to "if used" and them use the trigger zone?

i think this will work, it doesn't destroy the zone but if you re-enter the zone nothing will happen... it just deactivates itself

You want an entity in a zone? I don't get it.

What I gave you above works. I wouldn't post it if it didn't. I'll go through it again.

1. Set a trigger zone and use plrinzoneactivateifused.fpi for the main script.
2. In the IfUsed field of the trigger zone put the name of the entity you want to destroy.
3. Use this script for the entity.

set activateallinzone and activated to 2 if you are alredy using activated check

Oh.

Then try what frafra_95 said. I haven't tried that so I don't know if anywithinzone will work with a character, but he says it will.

Just to add my penny's worth, this is what I would do:

Zone's Main Script (headers, etc. have been removed):


Replace EntityToDestroy with the name of the entity you want to destroy.

The anywithinzone=1 condition will be true if the any entity, including the player, doors, lights, etc. , is within the trigger zone. So you'll need to make sure the trigger zone is free from any entities.

I always choose 666 as the activation value for destroying entities as i find it amusing, but you can set it to whatever value you want, just make sure it is the same value in both scripts.

EntityToDestroy's Main Script (If you plan on using a custom script for the entity to be destroyed just add this line at the top):


For information: the entitywithinzone condition does not work within FPSC - the condition is featured within the source code, but it does not do anything.
