I'm finding that when I use this command, it doesn't work, the character just stands there doing nothing. If it does still work, does the "state=" value carry over?

Thanks,

It still works. I just used it in a script. The thing is, if a character is running it's shoot AND main script at the same time and changes scripts with runfpi=, FPSC goes crazy and the character try to do everything at once. Usually will just stand there.


Cheers.

God help me, Please.

Okay, so if it doesn't have a shoot script in it's properties, and the main script has the "runfpi=" in it, would it try to do both at once? That's what it seems to be doing.

Thanks,

If the main script has the command "shootplr" it will try to run a shoot script. Putting nothing there may work, but I usually just don't let it get there.

What I mean is that there's nothing in the shoot box in the character's properties and in the main script, there is the "runfpi=" command to run another script, but nothing happens when it is called. The character just freezes. I've tried putting the script that I've been trying to call in the the shoot box of the properties and used "shootplr" in the main script, but the same thing occurs. Any idea why that would be? The script I'm trying to call works by itself, so I'm wondering if it was "state=100" in the main script, the script that is being called has to have "state=100" in it to have an effect.

Thanks,
Akanto

Can you post or send us the scripts? Maybe we could test it for you?

Funny thing is that I just lost it because my HDD decided to only allocate 100GB of the 1TB that I had, so when I tried to save it, it already said that I was over 100GB. Then, I tried to allocate the unallocated 850GB+ to the C Partition, and my whole computer crashed, because it then set the C Drive as an active partition. So, now it doesn't matter. I did end up merging the scripts, and it worked perfectly, but that's lost too. I'll get it to you guys when I have re-created it.

Thanks,

runfpi most certainly works. Just saved my project from a complete redesign.

Did you know that there's a limit to the number of states you can have in an individual script (in x10 anyway)? I sure didn't!

Well, I wasn't using a "state=" command in that line if that's what you were implying. But no, I didn't know that. Good info, thanks!

If you want runfpi to work, and end the current script, you must change the state to a non-existing one and make sure the script doesn't call on the Shoot Parameter.


Cheers.

The action "runfpi=" does work. What I do is this:

Main Script:


By using the format like that, my main script will terminate at state 300. since I use the "runfpi=" action without a shoot script, I have just been in the habit of terminating the main script just in case. Be aware that it does look for the script in the default "scriptbank" folder. If you have the script to be called in a subfolder, you will need to specify the folder path with the script name.

OH! I didn't know that you had to disable the original script. Wow, thank you all for being so patient. I really appreciate you helping me out. I'll post the script in case anyone wants it when it's done.

Thanks,
