| affect() ICARUS command - what am I doing wrong? | |

Case in point: http://www.ihud.com/file.php?file=1129167988/affect.pk3 Contents: - affect.bsp: JK3 single-player map - affect1.ibi and affect2.ibi: scripts run by the map - affect.map, affect1.icarus, affect2.icarus: sources to the above I've been doing mapping and scripting stuff for a while, but I've never been able to get the affect() command to work. Recently I decided to try and figure out why, and whether it was me doing something wrong, or Radiant or IBIze being weird. The sample maps and scripts provided with Radiant and the SDK all seem to compile correctly, and work perfectly in-game, affects and all, so I get the feeling I'm doing something wrong. Linked above is a pk3 containing a map, two scripts, and the sources to all three. The idea is that you spawn into the map facing two jedi_random, both sitting. One is placed sitting by its own spawnscript; the other is made to sit by an affect() command contained the player's spawnscript. I know the principle works, because this is how the majority of the maps in JK2 and JK3 run their cutscenes. The affected one, in my game, remains standing, while the directly run one sits properly. If anyone here knows a bit about ICARUS, I'd appreciate it if they could look through my script and tell me what I'm doing wrong. _______________ Saving the world, one kilobyte at a time. |

No, I haven't found an answer yet, although Setementor's being very helpful. The file seems to be gone, so I'll dig it up and post it again. _______________ Saving the world, one kilobyte at a time. |

In affect2.icarus, I don't see anything that specifies exactly what NPC you want to make sit.  Edit: Nevermind, I never looked at the map file.  This comment was edited by Setementor on Oct 13 2005 04:52pm. |
