hello, I'm a mapper and I am doing a zombie map. I have a question: can do a wall on the guid?. Please script, thx (I'm Polish, translators on google): D

Sorry, your translator hasn't translated your question very well. I cannot understand it.

haha although that was a fail translator. iv had so many people that dont know english that xfires me randomly. so i actually think i know what he means . i think hes asking if he can pass threw a wall depending on what your guid number is. and im pretty sure there are allot of posts about this but ill just make this again for yah.

1. first you need to go into your map select your brush and then make it a brush model. with the selected brush press N and key = targetname. value = rawr.

2. make a trigger infront of your wall and make it a trigger_multiple then while you have that trigger selected you then press N and key = targetname. value = rawrtrig.

3. save your map then compile it. now its time for the scripting.

main()
{
	privateguid = 0; // <----- make any guid you want.
	thread cool(privateguid);
}

cool(pguid)
{
	wall = getent("rawr","targetname");
	walltrig = getent("rawrtrig","targetname");
	
	while(1)
	{
		walltrig waittill("trigger", player);
		
		checkguid = player getGuid();
		
		if(checkguid == pguid)
		{
			wall hide();
			wall notsolid();
			wait 2;
			wall show();
			wall solid();
		}
	}
}

if i miss spelt anything then my bad. but all that should work. good luck.

This script doesn't work. Can someone rewrite it to make it work properly?

The script is correct.
You either have to post the error you are getting, or you are just not using it right.

I made simple multiplayer map with wall and trigger_use_touch on it and compiled it. Then I made a gsc file:


and put the script in another file:



After I launched the map I got this error:

_{******* script compile error *******
uninitialised variable 'd88108d8': (file 'maps/mp/_guid.gsc', line 3)
privateguid = d88108d8; // <----- make any guid you want.
*}

Then I changed the line

to


And now after I launch my map and I walk to the trigger I get this:


so it must be problem with this line:

After opening console I can see these errors repeating all the time:

in a non dedicated server your guid will ALWAYS be zero (0) , so its senseless to use this there.

your guid from getGuid() is a number (integer), not a string (text) , as it was print in the error msg.

simply try:

Sorry for my useless talking about problem with such a simple solution I didn't know about it, so I changed 0 to my guid at the very beginning. Now when it's 0 again, it works properly

but a yet a small question: When I put my map on a non-local server, should this line look like this:

or that

?

Guid==a number
SO DO NOT USE ANY OTHER CHARACTERS!
dont use your pb guid, use your normal guid.
