Thread: floating triggers?

ok can you have a trigger set up like the teleporter spot with more than locations? like this

switch ((randomint 2)+1)
{

case 2 :
local.player tele ( -1156 -712 592 ) //exit top r pill box roof
break

case 1 :
local.player tele ( 1625 -330 592 ) //exit top l/pillbox roof
break

}

only make the triggers random? so the exit spot be the same but the trigger moves to different places? in other words can you use that switch thing to switch any kind of thing you want?

Yeah, why not.

Code:

teleport:
    
    local.marker = spawn script_model model "emitters/welding_spark.tik" origin ( 1346.818 31.125 311.791 )   // starting point
    local.trig = spawn trigger_multiple origin (local.marker.origin)
    local.trig setsize ( -20 -20 -10) ( 20 20 10)

  while(1)
  {
    local.trig waittill trigger
    local.player = parm.other
    
    // Randomize destination:
    switch ((randomint 2)+1)
    {

       case 2 :
       local.player tele ( -1156 -712 592 ) //exit top r pill box roof
               break

       case 1 :
           local.player tele ( 1625 -330 592 ) //exit top l/pillbox roof
           break
    }

    local.trig notTriggerable
    wait 4
    local.trig triggerable
  }
end

Include a default case in-case something goes terribly wrong.

This is the teleport script i made when i wanted multiple destinations and/or start points, can go either way

Code:

teleport:

/// Put start coords below, if you only want 1 , only use 1
local.startarray = makeArray

( -1700.05 3069.68 200 )
( -1500.05 3069.68 200 )
( -2000.05 3069.68 200 )

endArray

// same with destinations, if you want multiple random ones, put multiple in there.
local.destinations = makeArray

( -724 4668 240  )
( 566 4537 240 )
( 587 3335 240 )
( 456 3779 324 )

endArray

while(1)
{
/// pick random destination and start
local.dest = local.destinations[((randomint local.destinations.size) + 1)][1]
local.start = local.startarray[((randomint local.startarray.size) + 1)][1]

//double checks for no NIL values
if(local.start == NIL)
local.start = local.startarray[1][1]

if(local.dest == NIL)
local.dest = local.destinations[1][1]
//////////////////////
/// Spawn new teleport ////
local.trig = spawn trigger_use origin (local.start)
local.port = spawn script_model  model "emitters/welding_spark.tik" origin (local.start)
local.trig setsize ( -30 -30 0 ) ( 30 30 10 )

local.trig waittill trigger

local.player = parm.other
local.player tele local.dest

local.trig remove
local.port remove

wait 3
}
        
end

So if you wanted just one destination , only have one set of coords, and same with start point.

I chose to use arrays , rather then a switch clause, less to write to add more locations lol

ok thanks guys this will make my day once I get it working.
