MODULE: Combination Lock Keypad v1.01 (new dl site)

[SSH]

I feel prolific, oh so prolific, I feel witty and prolific and straight....

Here's another module from my mighty pen, for doing combination locks.

Very simple: Download, read the readme, import the GUE and module and Bob's your builder:

Code:

// room script

function room_a() {
  // script for Room: Player enters room (before fadein)

  ComboLock.Combination = "1337";
  gKeypad.Centre();
  gKeypad.Visible = true;

}

function room_b() {
  // script for Room: Repeatedly execute

  if (ComboLock.Status() == eLockStatusCorrect) Display("Woot!");
  else if (ComboLock.Status() == eLockStatusWrong) Display("You die!");

}

Wow great, going to look at it right now.
Sorry to bug you but how would you use it with hotspots?

[SSH]

Candle: For the hotspot for button marked "1" you'd make its interaction do:

ComboLock.Press("1");

etc for button 2, 3, 4. Combinations can be letters instead of numbers if you prefer...

Thank you SSH I got it working now . this is better then sliced bread.
Anyway to fix this? with it in the  // script for Room: Repeatedly execute
When it plays the sound 4 it keeps playing it and it did the samething with the woot? had to Alt+x to quit the game as it was in a loop with the woot or sound?
if (ComboLock.Status()==eLockStatusCorrect) Display ("Woot!");
else if (ComboLock.Status()==eLockStatusWrong) PlaySound(4);

It looks like the Status() function is returning the same value repeatedly causing the code to be run over and over.

Try setting and checking a global variable:

Code:

if ((ComboLock.Status() == eLockStatusCorrect) && (GetGlobalInt(300) != 1)) {
  Display("Woot!");
  SetGlobalInt(300, 1);
  }
else if ((ComboLock.Status() == eLockStatusWrong) && (GetGlobalInt(300) != 2)) {
  PlaySound(4);
  SetGlobalInt(300, 2);
  }

Then in the code for the interaction you may want to put:

Code:

SetGlobalInt(300, 0);

I hope this helps (Seeing as I should be doing my English homework and then going to bed).

Great module but unfortunately it doesn't solve the issue I'm stuck with.
Thanks!

how you use the gue file

[Trent R]

Gue files are old, so you need to do a few steps:

1)load it into 2.72
2) upgrade the project to 3.1
3) (if needed) export to .guf file

Hi.
Can you tell me how to export the moudle?
I upgraded it from 2.72 to 3.1.2, but I didnt understsand how to export it..
(when you said "load it into 2.72" you meant to open it inside a game, and then upgrade the game. right?)

Thanks alot...
