*punch* "Wake up!"

[Edward]

Hi!
I require a COG. I have a level filled with sleeping enemies. Now I want to do like this, if I happen to do the slightest punch on one of these enemies, everyone will awake and attack me! Question: How?

/Edward
------------------
To COG, or not to COG, what a question...

Just how many enemies are we talking about here?

Lets say... One JO Level!
But hay! every one within the same room will do! I think I'll be having 10-20...

I am assuming your using the 200k actor flag to get them to sleep...

I don't know what flag I'm using. I'm using aisleep.cog

[Edward]

I hate to breake it to you, but it didn't work! I managed to kill 8 people without getting hurt myself! I'm using JK and I punch people and no reaction!

Oops sorry! Forgot that any tab or spaces I copy from here I'll have to fix in Notepad...

Still won't work!

HEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

[SaberMaster]

The 0x200000 Actor flag is for players, aisleep uses the 0x2000 AI Flag.

Remove all your copies of the aisleep cog and use this one, should work fine the first time:



# ai_awake.cog

Return;

If you need the cog modified, just ask. Parsec, BTW, will not accept some of the syntax used there, but don't worry about it.

Good luck. http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif

Hi!
Guess what, SaberMaster! Your COG didn't work either! Sure the enemies fell asleep but they didn't wake up when I punched them. I killed everyone in one level without getting hurt!

/Edward

[SaberMaster]

It's probably something with the level. My cog uses the same method of sleeping and waking ai that aisleep uses, so I know it can work. If you can't figure it out, send me the level, and I'll find the problem. I also changed the above script a little.

And, GBK, I did document the extended for loop syntax in the datamaster - and it is standard C++. http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif

you need to have a mask after each of the things in the symbols section for the damaged message. Add "mask=0x408" after each of the things in the above cog, and it should work.

------------------
May the forks be with you.

OK! It worked! But the thing is that when I punch someone, they all say "Stop" or "Kill" or "Hault", collect in one spot, and do nothing until I either jump over them or go up an elevator.
