For example, if I use delayedCall in a loop and pass a parameter based on the value of the loop, I receive an error: "Warning! invalid message: script_entity_5.lightOn(lanterns_levEntrance([e]))"

My code is a loop to turn on all lanterns on the level sequentially with a small delay between each one. "lanterns_levEntrance" is a table already created which contains entity references for all the lanterns on the level. The code works fine if I enable the lights/particles directly (the lines commented out below), but fails with the delayed call.

Code: Select all

function lightsOn()
	for e = 1, #lanterns_levEntrance do
		--lanterns_levEntrance[e].light:enable()
		--lanterns_levEntrance[e].particle:enable()
		delayedCall(self.go.id, 0.2, "lightOn(lanterns_levEntrance[e])")
	end
end

function lightOn(lightID)
	lightID.light:enable()
	lightID.particle:enable()
end

Step by step script ? ( controlled by timer or just the boss life of course )

Got example in the skugg's tuto part 6 ( Boss tuto )
