Don't give me credit, I just modified minetrap.cog from this site, I don't know what sound you wanted so you'll have to do that too, the bets way is to open up jed, select a sector and press enter, double click sound, find the sound you want, copy it, cancel, open this cog and paste over the existing sound, then save and play.

be sure to save this as something like "bactameswitch.cog" in ms-dos text format.

I hope this helps: it does work, I actually made a quick level and tested it.

Code: 
# Jedi Knight Cog Script

symbols

surface	switch			desc=switch

thing		tdg1			nolink,desc=tdg1

int		rounds=1		desc=rounds

flex		rate=0.1		desc=rate
flex		delay=3.0	desc=delay

int		firing=0		local
int		cur_round=0	local
int		dummy			local

template	proj_tpl=bactatank	local

sound		on_snd=set_hi2.wav	local
sound		off_snd=lgclick1.wav	local

message		activated

end

# ========================================================================================

code

activated:
	if(firing == 1) Return;

	firing = 1;
	dummy = SetWallCel(switch, 1);
	dummy = PlaySoundPos(on_snd, SurfaceCenter(switch), 1.0, 5.0, 10.0, 0);
	

	cur_round = 0;
	while(cur_round < rounds)
	{
	 dummy = CreateThing(proj_tpl, tdg1);
	 Sleep(rate);

	 cur_round = cur_round + 1;
	}

	Sleep(delay);
	dummy = SetWallCel(switch, 0);
	dummy = PlaySoundPos(off_snd, SurfaceCenter(switch), 1.0, 5.0, 10.0, 0);
	firing = 0;
	Return;

end


if you need help figuring this out email me and I'll go into more detail.

I'm not sure but i think that it's like that:
after line
dummy = CreateThing(proj_tpl, tdg1);
add line
ChangeInv(player, bin, -40.0);
and then add to symbols section line
int bin=60 local

Hope it eorks...

right before that, you need
Code: 
player=getsourceref();
And meanwhile the bus with legs has destroyed half of disneyland . . . and nobody cares!

right before...

ChangeInv(player, bin, -40.0);

...or...

int bin=60 local

...?

instead of putting int bin=60 local in the can't you just put(player,60,-40) or odes that not work in this kind of language i know it works with Visual Basic code.

Yes, that does work, although sometimes it is easier for people to understand what you're doing if you use that line in the symbols. You can also do int bin so you can enter the bin in Jed.. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]
