Hey.
Basically, I've began to "script" in FPSC around 2 days ago, so don't be mad about my numerous mistakes, please

The script is supposed to make a picture appear, when you're within 50 units from the entity, and fadeout, when pressed "enter".
However, when entering the trigger zone, some red-white hud fills the whole screen, and makes "lives" and "hp" dissapear. When I press "enter", it dissapears, but the "lives" and "hp" remain hidden.

Have you got any tips on how to fix this?

:state=1,plrdistwithin=50:hudshow=Guard1
:state=1,plrusingaction=1:hudfadeout=Guard1,state=2
:state=2,plrdistfurther=50:state=0

First, good attempt. May I suggest that instead of putting the image in the texturebank\... section, place it in "languagebank\english\gamecore\huds\YOURGAMENAME" folder. Try and keep the texturebank for entity and segment textures.

Here is a revamp of your script:

+ Code Snippet

:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=90,hudimagefine=languagebank\english\gamecore\huds\YOURGAME\Guard1.png,hudname=Guard1,hudhide=1,hudmake=display
:state=0:state=1
:state=1,plrdistwithin=50:hudshow=Guard1,state=2
:state=2,plrusingaction=1:hudfadeout=Guard1,state=3
:state=3,plrdistfurther=60:state=1

So basically hud will show when player is within the distance, press the action key and the hud fades out. Once player moves away by the distance it goes back to state 1 and waits.
