Would somebody please make me a quick cog that when a switch is activated, its sets a certain floor (surface) to uncheck "Impassible" and set the Geo to 0 for a specified ammount of time, then return it to geo 4 and impassable when the time ends. I am making it for a bridge that i want people to walk across, but if they are cought on the bridge when the switch is activated, down they fall. You will get credit for it, and thanks in advance!

Hmmmmmmmm...

Try this:

# 10/2001 GBK

Symbols
Message Startup
Message Activated
Surface Switch
Surface Floor
End
Code
Startup: Setwallcel(Switch, 0); Return;
Activated: If(Getsenderref() == Switch) {
If(Getwallcel(Switch) == 0) { Setsurfaceflags(Floor, 0x0); Setfacegeomode(Floor, 0x0);
Clearadjoinflags(Floor, 0x5); Setadjoinflags(Floor, 0x7); Setwallcel(Switch, 1); }
Else If(Getwallcel(Switch) == 1) { Setfacegeomode(Floor, 0x4); Setsurfaceflags(Floor, 0x5);
Clearadjoinflags(Floor, 0x7); Setadjoinflags(Floor, 0x5); Setwallcel(Switch, 0); } } Return;
End


It works. I tested it.

Thats kind of what i want, but what about sounds? And i want it to haev a timer, so after a ammount of time that i enter into the value box has passed, the flags return. Also it would be nice if i could change the sounds it makes. thanks!

Who in thier right mind locks a sound? I surely dont!

Oh yeah, the cog...

Timer: Call Appear; Return;
End

Again, it works, I tested it.

The last few variables are for the sounds, mindist & maxdist are just that - the minimum and maximum distances for the sound.

Its problably an installation error.
