@riccetts,

1st change the door's main to remote and name the door something special Doorremote1 for example. Then change the keypad scipt to what you'd like. Then in the ifused field add the name of the door.

Can I use a remote door? And I used the keypad code with a key pad and used the door name in the if used spot. It didn't work.
Can you help with this problem?

No. The script is assigned to the keypad. In the If Used field for the keypad, you put the name you use for the door. Check the door properties and ensure the name listed matches the name you gave in the If Used field of the keypad.

If it is not working, then either the keypad does not have the correct name in the If Used field, the door name does not match, the keypad is static, or the script is missing the "activateifused=1" command.


There's no problem that can't be solved without applying a little scripting.

I have the script here:


The door matches The keypad so maybe it's in the script.

@riccetts,

A tip: I like to make a 1 room map say 4x4 then when I want to test a script like this or any other script. to ensure it's working the way I want, before I put it in the game I am working on. The smaller map will load faster and it won't take as long to get the script working the way you want.

***note: Keep in mind that though your script may work perfectly in your test room. When you put it into a map that has other scripts running, the script may not run as it did in your test room. But using the test room gives you that sterile enviorment to get your custom script working right to begin with. That way when you do insert it in the game and it doesn't work right it'll be way easier to figure out why.

Do you have any other remote doors on the level?

Be sure the names are exactly the same.

Check this line of code
:state=14:state=1,plrsound=$0,activateifused=1,alttexture=1 :state=1,plrusingaction=0:state=2

You have state=1 twice.

A few mistakes. Too many colons, going to state=1 twice and state=2 once, a space in the "alttexture=1" and the ":state=1".

Perhaps it is suppose to be:

This is the original script for the keypad code in the ocfpscguide.
so from :state 14 and on please instruct me on what to do.

Riccetts,

Which version are you running?

It worked on my test map V1.19.

Checklist to be sure it's set up right.

1. place door and change main to remote
2. change the name of the door to door1
3. place key pad, I use the keypad from the scifi pack
4. add my script to the main of the keypad
5. change the name in the ifused field to what you named the door.

It should work.

I am using V1.19 also

The door I'm using is a remote door and I named it "door1".
I am using scifi switch 5
I added your script to main
I have ifused on switch "door1"
I get "press enter to use" when I approach the keypad.
Nothing happens when I press enter.
The door shows nothing when I approach it.
Any suggestions?

Oh ok,

What you need to do is change this line
:state=0:hudreset,hudx=50,hudy=90,hudimagefine=gamecore\text\pressentertouse.tga,hudname=useswitchprompt,hudhide=1,hudmake=display,state=10

You need to change the hud image to what you want(enter code or whatever). I just had the file path point to a stock hud. You should still be able to walk up tot he key pad and press the keys on your keyboard U,L,H,J and the door will open

Well there are a few things to do. You can create some huds that will show the numbers as you punch them in. You could also use the fpgcrawtext commands that work like huds but are, in my opinion easier to work with when trying to do something like this.
To get the #'s to actually apear on the keypad as you punch them in would require a bit more work to edit the exisiting textures. Then you'd have to come up with a script to change the texture everytime you press a key. Way too much work.

Download the script herehttp://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=196813&b=23

Look at how the FPGCRAW text is used and how the etimers are used to show the correct text at the correct time. This chould give you a good starting point to figure out the rest of your script.

Thanks
