Hi, I tried to block one region (make it blocked from sceneedit) and then make a if statement that should release it if item is given to one guy. I tried this:

if (!TeleportOpen) Region.Blocked = true;
else Region.Blocked = false;

but as usually it didn't work...it was only blocked for eternity hehe, I know this might be very basic to you guys, but I can't figure it out. The TeleportOpen is set to true if item is given to one npc entity. plz help

Thanks already!

It may be something more, but I would put some brackets in that script to begin with:

if (!TeleportOpen)
{Region.Blocked = true;
}
else
{Region.Blocked = false;
}

Although I don't think the last bracket set is absolutely necessary. If this doesn't help, it's something deeper.

[kypho]

unfortunately it was something deeper, still wondering how deep

[Catacomber]

Someone will help you, I'm sure.  Meanwhile, I did a search and found this:

var blockedDeskRegion = Scene.GetNode("block_desk");
  blockedDeskRegion.Blocked = false;

You could try fitting that code into your conditional code somehow if--what you wanted to happen as a condition happens but you have to use your own variable and region name. 

I'd like to know what works too.  This seems like something I'd be using quite a bit.  : )  This does sound like something basic but I can't find any documentation on it.

you get it all wrong. Blocked region is a node in the scene.

Code: WME Script

1. var e = Scene.GetNode("YourRegion");
2. e.Active = true;
3.

Thank you.  :  )

[Catacomber]

Kypho, are you OK now?

[metamorphium]

we scared him away.

[kypho]

Hi Meta and Catacomber Yes I am here and not scared, brave as a sir Lancelot ...Thanks for your help, I'll try meta's code later today...see if I can get it work

Huh and Hi again :/ I can't get it working still...
Here is what I got...

Code: [Select]

#include "scripts\base.inc"

global TeleportOpen;

var e = Scene.GetNode("guarded");

on "LeftClick"
{
if (!TeleportOpen)
 {
 e.Active = false;
 actor.Talk("I am too scared of the space monster!");
 actor.Talk("I can't go there");
 }
 else
 {
 e.Active = true;
 actor.Talk("I think I can go there now safely");
 }
}

"guarded" is the name of my region and TeleportOpen is a global variable storing boolean false/true value.
The LeftClick didn't do anything if take the leftclick code away, it says I am too scared of the space monster! in the start of scene (as it should), but later I can't get the else branch working at all...


ALSO I tried following:

Code: [Select]

#include "scripts\base.inc"

global TeleportOpen;

var e = Scene.GetNode("guarded");

if (!TeleportOpen)
 {
 e.Active = true;
 e.Blocked = true;
 }
 else
 {
 e.Active = true;
 e.Blocked = false;
 }

but neither any of this code works

The script looks correct to me. Where exactly is the script loacted (i.e. what is it attached to?)?

[kypho]

Hi

This script is tried to attach to "guarded" region as a guarded.script...I saw that you can put scripts to region, so I put and you can neither get to there from scenes folder or from sceneEdit.

Well, scene regions aren't "clickable", i.e. their scripts can never receive the LeftClick events. If you need a clickable region, you'll have to place some interactive object over it. Region *entity* might me a good candidate.

Scene regions are used to build scene layout. They are not interactive.
Region entities are invisible interactive spots within the scene.

[kypho]

AHhH, I see...thanks for your support again

Hmm, now when I changed it to region entity it says the first texts when clicking on the region, but later when it should let the region be active when TeleportOpen == true then it doens't say anything or let the character walk on the area. I have the first codes now, which I put here after your glues...
