ok...heres the problem...you should have had this:


syntax error again...

also, i wouldent have the player live for 2 seconds (2000 = 2 seconds....)

but thats me, you may need it to do that...


also, you could compress that into 3 or 4 states, but i left it spaced out for the sake of you learning from it...

or you could be smarter, save .01 seconds, and just use plrhealthgreater=0.

However, your first script is correct. Lets look at Teh Source...
Okay, a single line should be parsed before continuing game. There is no logic error as all actions and conditions happen at once (logically).

"ye oft de adopte early shalt move mountains, and be gods among men"

Wait... First, download the FPSC Source (Click the DBP 5.9 Link above).

You can ignore most of the stuff, but look at the way the scripting commands work. If you can't understand it, do a search for "QBASIC COMMANDS" for general understanding. If you include lees rantings, it becomes pretty clear that the entire line is parsed. This means that all actions occur at once (logically).

Also, finding a location has a lot more source then the plrhealthgreater=0 command, this is enough to tell that you save critical time by using plrhealthgreater.

As he does not stay in the zone, he should not receive extra dammage. So there is no logic error. If the plr died and stayed where he was, then you have a problem.

I would add a termination condition so the plr could "jump" out of the way, that is kinda the way with logic games.

:plrwithinzone=0:state=0

ohh... now i see that, I thought you were talking about it overkilling him (meaning that -500 if you have 100 it -500) before going to state 0 (if your dead, you resurect... have some negitive left, die again, then state=0)....
