How do i add a script.. (not brushmodel but like pure C++ coding..) its a big list of a script...

main(){	thread self_closing_doors();}self_closing_doors(){	doors = getentarray("door_trig","targetname");	for(i=0; i<doors.size; i++)	{		doors[i] thread door_think();	}}door_think(){	self.doormoving = false;	self.doormodel = getent(self.target, "targetname");	while(1)	{		self waittill("trigger");		if(!self.doormoving)		{			self thread door_move();		}	}}door_move(){	self maps\mp\_utility::triggerOff();	self.doormoving = true;	self.doormodel playsound("metal_open");	self.doormodel rotateyaw(self.count, 2, 0.5, 0.5);	self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone");	wait (5);	self.doormodel playsound("metal_close");	self.doormodel rotateyaw((self.count * -1), 2, 0.5, 0.5);	self.doormodel waittill("rotatedone");	self maps\mp\_utility::triggerOn();	self.doormoving = false;}

If this is for a map, then you'll need to add it to your map's .gsc file, like this:

main()
{
	maps\mp\_load::main();

	maps\mp\_compass::setupMiniMap( "compass_map_mp_mapname" );

	game["allies"] = "marines";
	game["axis"] = "opfor";
	game["attackers"] = "axis";
	game["defenders"] = "allies";
	game["allies_soldiertype"] = "desert";
	game["axis_soldiertype"] = "desert";
	
	setdvar( "r_specularcolorscale", "2" );
	
	setdvar( "compassmaxrange", "1800" );
	
	thread SetupMovingDoors();
}

SetupMovingDoors()
{	
	doors = getEntArray( "door_trig", "targetname" );	
	
	for( i = 0; i < doors.size; i++ )	
	{		 
		doors[i] thread DoorLogic();	
	}
}

DoorLogic()
{	
	self.doorMoving = false;	
	self.doormodel = getEnt( self.target, "targetname" );	
	
	while(1)
	{		
		self waittill( "trigger" );		
		
		if( !self.doorMoving )		
		{			
			self thread MoveDoor( self.doormodel );		
		}	
	}
}

MoveDoor( door )
{	
	self maps\mp\_utility::triggerOff();	
	
	self.doormoving = true;	
	
	door playSound( "metal_open" );	
	door rotateYaw( self.count, 2, 0.5, 0.5 );	
	door waittill( "rotatedone" );
	
	wait(5);	
	
	door playSound( "metal_close" );	
	door rotateYaw( (self.count * -1), 2, 0.5, 0.5 );
	door waittill( "rotatedone" );	
	
	self maps\mp\_utility::triggerOn();	
	
	self.doormoving = false;
}

okay i did and now im getting when im compiling reflections...

Script compile error
Bad syntax
maps/mp/mp_(MAPNAME)::main();
(See console for details)

I blocked out my map name.. just incase..

Open your console (shift ~) and see where the * is in your script. The * indicates where the syntax error is.

I wouldn't do that, but that's just me. SP maybe but MP, you should keep all your scripts separate from each other, including the map's .gsc file.

There are plenty of tuts on here for adding new scripts to maps.

Well there is little reason to split different functions into new files, unless your adding lots of new functions/systems and need to organise it.

Xylozi writes...

Yes, and I agree, but I learned here quickly that starting that way and putting other scripts into the map's .gsc file just creates clutter. Not only that, it is much easier to add a self contained script as in (its own separate .gsc file) than to try and add a new function into the map's .gsc file just to debug the problem errors.

A map's .gsc file is built for certain functions. Defining certain things. If you create a separate script just to handle your doors, you can create a boundary between the rest of your work, and your doors, instead of clutter for the future as your map grows and develops.

The problem is, you get in the habit of adding extra things to your maps .gsc file when really they should be kept organised and separated.

Would you rather debug 100 lines of code or 20? I would rather have my errors contained in separate files than clutter all up in one.
