Hello all, just venturing into the forays of scripting again...

I was just wondering if anybody who is good with scripts could look at my script here and see if it would work correctly...

Basically what I have here is a script that will play a random sound, at a random time interval, with a random camera shake magnitude. I also put some plrwobble in it for overall realism.

The script is applied to a trigger zone way off the map.

I got the idea playing rage, every once in a while the camera shakes lightly and a sound (like metal creaking or earthquakes) would play.

(Replace X with sound files and associated paths)

Here is the script:

;Artificial Intelligence Script

;Header

desc          = dynamic ambience

:state=0,plrwithinzone=0:plrwobble=1
:state=1,timerstart,state=10

Replace the "timerstart/timergreater" with "etimerstart/etimergreater". The reason is this- if you have another script using "timerstart/timergreater", they will conflict and not run properly. It is always good to use the "etimer" as you can have multiple run at the same time.

Also, your syntax is slightly off- you have commas in place of colons.

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

Errrgh, just tested this script and the sounds didnt play. The player wobble works, but I think maybe I got some conditions and actions switched up somewhere... Any thoughts? I cant seem to find out the problem...
