I am using the following timed level script I got off the boards:

:state=0:timerstart,state=1
:timergreater=30000:plrmoveto=Win Zone

It works if I just stand still, but once I start running around the level and shooting things, it doesn't work. Why would this be?

because first off, the farter away you are from the entity the less information it processes.

Second, timer is broken. If you use timer even 1 more time the timer you use here will not work.

state=1 is a redundant condition, does nothing.

So, if I attach the script to a giant rock in the middle of this one room level, will it work better than if it is attached to a brick in the corner?

I turned off all other timed events. I have enemies respawn after death, not after a delay.

Thats not true, merranvo. I have a script (which has been posted here) that spawns things when you are close enough, then kills them all 1 min after each has spawned. and they all go away at different times. But thanks for the correction on the states. and i dunno about where it is.

Thats not true, merranvo.

Say that to the Source. Timer will be reset constantly by exterior scripts which will NOT kill your enemys after 1 min. If you have timer reseting at shorter intervals somewher then you will NEVER REACH one min unless you are far enough away to one section and close enough to the other.

try adding ::followplr

not sure if that command still works with entitys as well as enemys, but it keeps the script running in real time.
