Hi, I have this script and iv been playing around with it for ages and I just cant get it to work, iv got the code working for the main part, but it wont display the hud message, or I can get it displaying the hud message, but then the code doesnt do what its supposed to do.
Basically I have a toolbox with the script below. Then I have a Vent that requires a key to open it, but iv altered that script to say its bolted and that you need to find some tools to open it, however I dont want the user just to walk up to the tool box and collect the tools, I want to make them press enter on it to collect the tools.
Here is the code I have so far...
whats wrong with it?
Thanks in advance

first a small tip: when a script not work, look in standart scripts or search in the forum! and use fpi pad to script. it shows your standart mistakes!

i do it for you:

:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=90,hudimagefine=gamecore\text\pickuptools.png,hudname=toolprompt,hudhide=1,hudmake=display,state=1
:state=1,plrdistwithin=60:hudshow=toolprompt,state=2
:state=1,plrdistfurther=61:hudfadeout=toolprompt

:state=2,plrusingaction=1:hudfadeout=toolprompt,etimerstart,state=3
:state=3,etimergreater=500:playertake,coloff

;End of Script

your mistake: you dont make a difference between action and condition

:state=3:playertake,,state=4

You should delete 'one' of the 'commas' in this line were you can see 'two' presently.

Its just to clean the script.
