Need Help making 2 Cogs
2004-06-22, 5:15 PM #1
I need help with 2 cogs, im trying to make a door controlled by a key, but only the host requires the key to open it. I also need help with a cog that plays a sound everytime a 3do moves, since it is a custom 3do, it doesnt make any sounds when moved.

Any help is appreciated.

Well, the second one would probably be more easily done with a custom .snd file, I'd think. That's the file which tells JK which sounds to play depending on the action taken by an object.

Ok, the biggest problem i have is with the door, ive tried the normal 00_doorkey cog, didnt work too well. Here's the coding if anyone wants to edit it to work for multiplayer (AKA, Everyone requires a key to go through, or to open it, not just host)

Well the second effect you're after can be achieved by adding a "soundclass=etc.snd" in the "master.tpl" template file (so long as you define a "*.snd" filename - heck, you can even use any of the existing ones if you want [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif])

And for the first question (sorry to take them out of order [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif] - it's as I'm thinking about it off the fly, without the DataMaster to hand...), if you use a check similar to:

Code: 
activated:
    if (IsServer() && GetInv (player, binInventory, 1) ) {
        open door stuff
    }
    else {
        Print ("No access");
        return;
    }
    Return;


You'll have to forgive the pseudo-code as I don't have time to type it all up, being at work at the mo... [http://forums.massassi.net/html/redface.gif] [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]
