Hello everybody,

I have two rooms. When I want to walk from room1 to room2 I have to open the door from room1 and when I click, I can change scene. Now I am in room2. But when I go back from room2 to room1 and the scene is loaded, the room1 door is closed.

I tried to change the starting order so that I start with room2 and then go to room1 and there it's the same, when returnig a second time to the room the room1 door is set back to closed, while room2 door stays open.

How can this be? Has anyone an idea?

Thank you...

II think that the better way is store a value to save the door status, for example in the var StateScene that is created when WME create the scene from template.

If you has a entity in the screen, you can put a sprite with the door open or close depending of the value.

For example:

Code: [Select]

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// scene state
global StateRoom1;
var doorEntity;

// default values
if(StateRoom1==null)
{
  StateRoom1.Visited = false;
  // add scene states here
  StateRoom1.DoorOpened = false; // Initial value for the door. This is closed.
}

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// setup scene according to state variables

doorEntity = GetNode("door_entity"); // This is a entity in the scene tahat contain the sprite of the door open or closed

if(StateRoom1.DoorOpened) // If the door is opened
   doorEntity.SetSprite("door_open.png");
else // If the door is closed
   doorEntity.SetSprite("door_close.png");

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
if(!StateRoom1.Visited)
{
  StateRoom1.Visited = true;

  // this is our first visit in this scene...
}

And in the script of the door (script assigned to the entity), for example in event "use/take":

Code: [Select]

global StateRoom1;

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
on "Take"
{
  if (!StateRoom1.DoorOpened) //if the door is closed, then open.
  {
    actor.GoToObject(this);
    actor.PlayAnim("open_the_door");
    this.SetSprite("door_open.png");
    StateRoom1.DoorOpened = true; //stores in the scene state var the status of the door. When you return to the scene, the script used this value for draw the door open.
  }
  else // else, close the door
  {
    actor.GoToObject(this);
    actor.PlayAnim("close_the_door");
    this.SetSprite("door_close.png");
    StateRoom1.DoorOpened = false; //stores in the scene state var the status of the door. When you return to the scene, the script used this value for draw the door close.
  }
}

Thanks for your reply, but it doesn't work. I also tried another method. In room2 after opening the door, there is a corridor entity which I can click on, to change to room1 so in the corridor script I wrote:

Code: [Select]

#include "scripts\base.inc"

var room1_door = Scene.GetNode ("scenes\room1\room1.scene\room1_door_closed");

on "LeftClick"
{
  actor.GoToObject(this);
  room1_door.Active = false; 
  Game.ChangeScene ("scenes\room1\room1.scene");
}
But the crazy thing is, that when I enter room1, the door ist still there... How can this be???

Thanks...

Well, It's logical. When you return to room1, the scene load again. You don't has modifing the entity of the scene becouse the scene isn't still created. You has modifing a copy of the entity.

In the example the order is:

- Declare and create a instance of the entity (This entity there isn't in any scene).
- Whe you make Left click:
  - actor goes to object
  - Hide the instance of the entity that you are create before (remember that this entity isn't in the scene, the scene hasn't been still loaded)
  - Change the scene (then, the scene is reloaded and the entities of the scene has the default status).

Due to this, I say you in my other message that you can store the status, and when you open the scene, in the scene_init script, you can prepare the status of the door depending on value stored.

Imho, this shouldn't be a problem.  You have scene remember node states set in properties right for the door?

Do you have an opened and closed door for the sprites?  Or is it just a door that either lets you through (is active) or blocks you (is not active)--same graphic sprite or region entity for both?

You can set globals so that if you go back to that scene the global is set in such a way that the door has to be open.

for the door I have a closed (door_closed) and an open (door_open) sprite and when opening (door_opening) or closing (door_closing) there is for each playing an animation containig 10 sprites. so for the closed door I have for example:

Code: [Select]

#include "scripts\base.inc"

var dooropen = Scene.GetNode ("fiona_door_open");
var doorclosed = Scene.GetNode ("fiona_door_closed");
var dooropenblocked = Scene.GetNode ("blocked_door_open");
var dooropening = Scene.GetNode ("fiona_door_opening");
var flur = Scene.GetNode ("fiona_flur");

on "LeftClick"
{
actor.GoToObject (this);
Game.Interactive = false;
actor.Talk ("Ich öffne sie mal.");
doorclosed.Active = false;
dooropening.Active = true;
var sprite = dooropening.GetSpriteObject();
while (!sprite.Finished) Sleep(1);
sprite.Reset ();
dooropening.Active =false;
dooropen.Active = true;
dooropenblocked.Active = true;
flur.Active = true;
Game.Interactive = true;
}
And the same for the open door. But the strange thing is, that wme reminds the status of the second room. That is, when I enter the second room again, the door is still open.

I tried what HelLRaiseR posted first, but while having 4 different entities for the door, the whole thing was (for me) to difficult to code. Has perhaps anyone an example how I can do this with globals?

Thanks a lot...

I solved it -  - Jippiiiiiiiii

in my scene_init script I wrote:

Code: [Select]

#include "scripts\base.inc"

// here comes the stuff which initializes the scene

actor.SkipTo(461, 566);
actor.Direction = DI_DOWNRIGHT;
actor.Active = true;


////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// scene state
global StateFionas_Zimmer;


// default values
if(StateFionas_Zimmer==null)
{
  StateFionas_Zimmer.Visited = false;
  // add scene states here
  StateFionas_Zimmer.dooropen = false;
}



////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// setup scene according to state variables
if(StateFionas_Zimmer.dooropen) // If the door is opened
{
var doorclosed = Scene.GetNode ("fiona_door_closed");
var dooropen = Scene.GetNode ("fiona_door_open");
var flur = Scene.GetNode ("fiona_flur");

doorclosed.Active = false;
dooropen.Active = true;
flur.Active = true;
}
else // If the door is closed
{
doorclosed.Active = true;
dooropen.Active = false;
flur.Active = false;
}

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
if(!StateFionas_Zimmer.Visited)
{
  StateFionas_Zimmer.Visited = true;

  // this is our first visit in this scene...
}
And then when opening or closing the door, I changed the StateFionas_Zimmer value to true or false and now it works.

It's a bit different from what HelLRaiseR posted, but the idea is the same, thanks alot...
