Ok here it is:


Is there something that I missed? Or does the anywithin command not work? Thanks.


Cheers.


EDIT:
I tried it with the plrwithin command and it worked but I want it to work if an entity is in the zone. Any Ides?

God help me, Please.

Hmm I may not be much of a scripter but when I was flipping threw the commands I didn't see anywithinzone as a command. Also, i think from another thread, someone said there was no way for an entity in zone type thing

I checked the official command book and found the anywithin command in it. So, it should work...


Cheers.

Yours is either an older version or I added it in. Just check the Official Document and its there.

You mean the player's view, because that would be impossible.

Actually no. I've seen it done before with pure vanilla. All I need is for the FPSC Developers to add the anythingwithinzone or entitywithinzone command and I'll be good to go. Or I could think of another way... Cheers.

Entitywithinzone=x should work, then if you want to detect the player as well just use a plrwithinzone=x on the same state.

All browsers should come with compulsory spell checks.

I can confirm the anywithinzone=1 command works - i use it in my current game successfully. The entitywithinzone does not work - there is no code within the source for this command.

Silly question, but you have named an entity within the trigger zone's "If Used" parameter?

Yes, I have. It works with plrwithinzone, but not anywithinzone... Even when the player enters during the anywithin zone it just won't work... I don't know why.

Have you tried a simple script that just displays some text when an entity enters the zone?

You need to make sure the zone is free from any other entities - boxes, decals, etc. will all trigger anywithinzone=1.

The command works for me so we will find a solution eventually

Could you save the script in my first post and test it out to see if it works for you? Thanks.

I tested it and it worked fine - have you made the entity named in "If Used" active? "plrmoveifused" won't work if the "If Used" entity is static.

Yes it is dynamic. I used a simple teleporter out which by default is dynamic. I've tried this on v. 1.18 Beta 15 & 16, and yet nothing happens even if I walk into the zone myself.

Here are my Steps:
1. I set down a Trigger Zone in front of a door.
2. I give the trigger zone the script with the anywithinzone command.
3. I set down a Teleporter Out and name it "cam".
4. I set the Trigger Zone's "If Used" Parameter to "cam".
5. I set down a thug that is holding a pistol.
6. I run a test game.
7. I force the thug into the zone with my own Silent Hill Script.
8. And NOTHING happens...
9. Then I make my actual player walk into the zone.
10. Yet again NOTHING happens...
11. Then I become frustated because I think that mine is defective...

I remember that once, ONCE it worked... but it sent me to "cam" before anything was even in the zone...

Can anybody help me with this?


Cheers.

God help me, Please.

Beastmode, have you tried the trigger away from the door?

The door may be causing the problem because it is a dynamic entity.

I found another way to do this script. I just used the anywithin command instead and it's all working great!

I am going to spill the beans over the whole command issue. anywithinzone and anykeywithinzone only works with entities that are not characters. the player also can't trigger these.

The entitywithinzone command is in the source but has no conditioning to it, it is just a dummy command that was replaced with anywithinzone.

So far, I think there is not really any type of command that will detect a character entity. Maybe Hockeykid, Lee, or some one else that is working on the source could put it in.

EDIT: I did test your script and that is the only reason why I said all this. I did a through test that even went into changing and adding commands.

anywithinzone used to work. When I made Hypnogagia I used it with a trigger zone. You put the cake in the mouth and the door opened.

I tried a code like this to get a character to trip the trigger zone.



It would not work for me, until I lowered the purple square on the trigger zone to the ground level. As soon as I did this the character was able to activate the trigger zone, plus I was able to throw entities across the trigger zone to activate them also.

Just what I have found out so far.

@ Pirate Myke

Good catch. I too had to do that exact thing, and had forgotten about that little piece of information. Thanks for posting that.
