need help fixing my complex zero-g cog
2001-01-08, 5:25 PM #1
Ok. i said "complex" so people wouldn't think i had trouble with that normal sector enter/exit zero-g cog here at massassi. The problem isn't really with the zero G part of my cog, but the prep room for it. Here's how i'm gonna do this,
I'll put a pic of the layout and stuff i am useing the cog in, then below that i will put the cog. and hopefully a great and wise cogger will come along and see what i am doing worng. the problem with this cog is that when i go to the "doorin" and try to open it, NOTHING AT ALL HAPPENS! it's really pissing me off, so please read on to help me out.

You only use return; at the end of a message, not at the end of every if statement! [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]
