Killcannon wrote:So i have an interesting problem in my dungeon. I have a script that has been troubling me for weeks on end. No matter what I'd do the scripting wouldn't work at all despite multiple changes. After getting beyond frustrated with it I decided to create a new test dungeon and test the script there and lo, it works absolutely fine with the exact same setup. So my question is why is the script working in one dungeon and not in the other?

Here's the setup:

Floor trigger is connected to a timer. The timer is set to a interval of 3 and connected to the following script:

Code: Select all

function frostexplosion()

local fmax = 3

	for x = -fmax,fmax do
	for y = -fmax,fmax do
		if ( (x ~= 0) or (y ~= 0) ) then
			spawn("lightning_bolt_blast", 1, 15 + x, 20 + y, 0)
			spawn("lightning_bolt_blast", 1, 15 + x - 1, 20 + y - 1, 0)
			spawn("lightning_bolt_blast", 1, 15 + x - 2, 20 + y - 2, 0)
			spawn("lightning_bolt_blast", 1, 15, 20, 0)
		else
			return nil
			end
		end
	end
end

EDIT: This works just fine for me. If just nothing happens for you, then you either messed up the connectors, or not in the area you specified for this to happen. (Check elevation)
If it crashes, do send a report. (although I see no reason for this to crash)
(Though I still don't really understand why you complicated spawning a bunch of blasts in an area so much)

function zappulsechamberpuzzle()
	local max = 0
		if Electricution_lever_1.lever:isDeactivated() and
			Electricution_lever_2.lever:isDeactivated() then
			max = 2 
		elseif Electricution_lever_1.lever:isActivated() and
			Electricution_lever_2.lever:isDeactivated() then
			max = 1
		elseif Electricution_lever_2.lever:isActivated() and
			Electricution_lever_1.lever:isDeactivated() then
			max = 0
		elseif Electricution_lever_1.lever:isActivated() and
			Electricution_lever_2.lever:isActivated() then
			max = 0
		end

	for x = -max,max do
	for y = -max,max do
		if ( (x ~= 0) or (y ~= 0) ) then
			spawn("lightning_bolt_blast", 1, 19 + x, 15 + y, 0)
			spawn("lightning_bolt_blast", 1, 19, 15, 0)
		else if ( (x == 0) or (y == 0) ) then
			spawn("lightning_bolt_blast", 1, 19, 15, 0)
			end
			end
		end
	end

that will activate/deactivate door etc. I have set baseObject = "altar" on swamp_dead_tree defineObject and added class = "Surface", class = "Clickable" and
