Request: Multiple Item Puzzle Script

Post by Grimorial »

Okay first off I would like to give props and thanks to all the people on these forums for all the great scripts, objects, ideas, etc that I have lurked over the last couple of weeks.

Now on to my dilemma and request. I've been working on my first dungeon and have got to the point where I am in need of scripts where connectors aren't going to cut it.
As I am quite useless when it comes to this, I turn to you kind folks.

I have a puzzle that requires 4 sets of 4 different items that need to be placed on 4 corresponding pressure plates. Once all items have been placed on the proper plates,
I need a key to appear in a alcove. Would someone be able to assist me with a script to accomplish this please?

Sorry for any redundancy that may have been previously posted.

Yes it is a word puzzle where the items describe personas that belong to statue spirits. Each statue would give you clues to the others to help you choose the items to describe them.

You just need a bigger version of the common "put item in alcove" puzzle. See this example, and just extend the bottom part in your case to be 16 things instead of 4:

Thank you. I've looked over those "item in alcove" threads and had failed to see a mention of tying 4 containers together.
