Scripting help and delete my old post please.

[andrewthiago]

Hi ADMIN and MODDERS! Could you delete my old post called '' How to create taxi missions'', please? I just wrote a new scritp below, now, for a new mission. I spent maybe, more than 5 days exploring all the files, trying to figure out what i'm doing wrong, But can't find a resolution for that.

1- How to use the detector command properly, so he can detect me when i'm on a target? He never detects me and the COMPASS, neves turns off.

Please, take a look at this please:

1 - NPC ( 66MAN1) SCRIPT:
*************************

dim_act 3
dim_frm 6
dim_flt 3

findactor 0,"Tommy"
findactor 1,"66man1"
findactor 2,"66target1"

findframe 0,"tommy"
findframe 2,"66target1"
findframe 3,"taxi_point21"

seton 2,0 //Here, i deactivated i won't use before talking to the NPC.
seton 3,0

label 1
enemy_playanim "nudastativ.i3d"
wait 7000
goto 1

event use_ab /// I must talk to the npc, so the code can continue

enemy_stopanim
wait 300
seton 2,1 // I activated the frame (66TARGET1) first.
wait 300
setcompass 2 // Now, the compass is set to aim to (66TARGET1)

////(66MAN10 SCRIPT FINISHED...

>
///////// After talking to the NPC (66MAN1) , the compass will show me the (66TARGET1), whom is my next destination i should go. The next part of the code, will be inside the (66target1) FILE.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////DOWN


2 - (66TARGET1) file SCRIPT:


dim_act 3
dim_flt 6
dim_frm 4

findactor 0,"tommy"
findactor 1,"66,man1"
findactor 2,"66target1"

findframe 2,"66target1"
findframe 3,"taxi_point21"

label DETECT

//////////////////////NEGATIVE
wait 200
detector_inrange 0, 10
if flt[0] = 0, -1, DETECT
getactordist 0,2,0
if flt[0] > 10,-1,DETECT
detector_issignal 2, DETECT, -1
goto DETECT

///////////////////////POSITIVE

getactordist 0,2,0 // Calculates the distance between "tommy" and the (66TARGET1)

if flt[0] < 10,5,DETECT
detector_issignal 2,5,DETECT
goto DETECT

label 5

wait 500
setcompass -1
human_addweapon 0,20,0,0
wait 3000
setcompass 3 //Sets compass to the "taxi_point21" frame.

label finish
end

---------------------------------------------------------------
The (66TARGET1) never detects me when i come next to him! I swear, I tried a lot of code combinations, but it never get to work properly.
Which code should i insert, so the (66TARGET1) can detect "Tommy", and proceed to the next part of the mission?


Thank you anyway, and sorry for messing up this post.

I have read both scripts and they are identical afaic.
also if there are any slight changes you could edit
your post *here* rather than keep creating new topics each time

I know you are new here but I have given you
information on our board rules and about posting
please do not create another topic for the same
issue.
