Activating trap cog

[JLAW]

I am bad with the calling of cogs...but not terrible.

I want to make a trap cog to activate only under specific occurence. (The cog is a server/client cog and at present activated by a wall switch)

I would like this trap to be triggered when a specific ghost thing enters a specific sector. The ghost thing is a ship controlled by another cog to move to certain frame points. It would be even better if i could get the trapcog to be triggered by the thing arriving at a specific frame. Thanks for reading/responding.

I'm just starting to learn how to use COGs but my guess is that you have the COG move the ship thing to the frame# then it should send an "arrived" message to your COG, so the the trap script would be placed after "arrived:". You might need to check on which thing sent the arrived message if you have more than one thing in your cog script. I don't think you'll need a sector or surface crossed message that way, since you are moving the ship via the COG.
