I have this code, but there seems to be a problem, can someone take a look at it and see if anything is wrong?

The problem is that when I trigger trig_Secret1, nothing happens... the brush doesn't move.

secret()
{
plat=getent("secret","targetname");
trig=getent("trig_secret1","targetname");
esc1=getent("openup","targetname");


while(1)
{
trig waittill ("trigger");
esc1 notsolid();

plat movex (300,3,2,2);
plat waittill ("movedone");
wait(2);

plat movey (1792,3,2,2);
plat waittill ("movedone");
wait(2);

plat movex (-2500,3,2,2);
plat waittill ("movedone");
wait(2);

plat movez (1368,3,2,2);
plat waittill ("movedone");
wait(2);

esc1 solid();

}
}

The reason why trig_secret1 doesn't move is because you aren't telling it to. Other than having the trigtrig_secret1 wait for a player to trigger it, there is nothing in that piece of code to handle trigtrig_secret1.

No no, I don't want trig_Secret1 to move. I want secret to move after I trigger trig_secret1, but in-game I do just that and nothing happens.

Try this:

init()
{
	plat = getent( "secret","targetname" );
	trig = getent( "trig_secret1","targetname" );
	esc1 = getent( "openup","targetname" );
	
	trig thread secret( plat, esc1 );
}

secret( plat, esc1 )
{
	level endon( "intermission" );
	
	for( ;; )
	{
		self waittill( "trigger", player );
		
		if( isPlayer( player ) && player isTouching( self ) )
		{
			esc1 notsolid();

			plat movex (300,3,2,2);
			plat waittill ("movedone");
			wait(2);

			plat movey (1792,3,2,2);
			plat waittill ("movedone");
			wait(2);

			plat movex (-2500,3,2,2);
			plat waittill ("movedone");
			wait(2);

			plat movez (1368,3,2,2);
			plat waittill ("movedone");
			wait(2);

			esc1 solid();		
		}
	}
}

completely untested, but should do what you want to do.

Jeez, seems so advanced. Do you have xfire?

Just tested with code, and nothing happens. I checked to make sure all the entity names matched, and they did. I don't have to thread anything do I at the top in mymapname.gsc?
