Hi, i am a new guy to FPS Creator. I suck at scripting and i just used words from Nickydude's Book. But the script didnot work. Why?

[/code];Artificial Intelligence Script

;Header

desc = Flashbacks

;Triggers

:state=0,plrwithinzone=1,setposteffect=surreal:state=1
:state=1,plrwithinzone=0,setposteffect=none,state=2
:state=2,state=0

;End of Script [code]

Life is a Challenge.

Because the syntax is incorrect. The command "setposteffect" is an action, and therefore should be on the "right" side of the colon, not left side.

When scripting, script lines should follow any one of these formats:

:STATE,CONDITION(S):ACTION(S)

or

:STATE:ACTION(S)

or

:CONDITION(S):ACTION(S)

The key is knowing what are conditions and actions, then that will help to understand when to use a colon or comma.

In the case of your script, it should be:



Hope that helps.


There's no problem that can't be solved without applying a little scripting.

Explanation: when the player is in zone it will do the post effect surreal, and also it will do state 1, now state 1 states that if the player is not within the zone, the post effect will be none and it will do state 2, now what is state 2? it will once again do state 0, thus repeating the script....
just tryin' to help (correct me if I'm wrong)

next time, you may want to use FPI EditPad a really great program, especially for beginners,
