Hello. I have probably stupid problem in my script. I created 3 buttons(1,2,3) and 3 spawners(1,2,3) my purpose was to open a gate after proper combination(2,3,1) and punish player(with poison cloud in the face) when he perpetrate a mistake.

Code: Select all

function buttonPress(sender)
   if sender.id == "wall_button_1" and counter_1:getValue() == 3 then
      counter_1:setValue(3)
	  spawner_1:activate()
   elseif sender.id == "wall_button_1" and counter_1:getValue() == 2 then
      counter_1:setValue(3)
	  spawner_1:activate()
   elseif sender.id == "wall_button_1" and counter_1:getValue() == 1 then
      counter_1:setValue(0)
   elseif sender.id == "wall_button_2" and counter_1:getValue() == 3 then
      counter_1:setValue(2)
   elseif sender.id == "wall_button_2" and counter_1:getValue() == 2 then
      counter_1:setValue(3)
	  spawner_2:activate()
   elseif sender.id == "wall_button_2" and counter_1:getValue() == 1 then
      counter_1:setValue(3)
	  spawner_2:activate()
   elseif sender.id == "wall_button_3" and counter_1:getValue() == 3 then
      counter_1:setValue(3)
	  spawner_3:activate()
   elseif sender.id == "wall_button_3" and counter_1:getValue() == 2 then
      counter_1:setValue(1)
   elseif sender.id == "wall_button_3" and counter_1:getValue() == 1 then
      counter_1:setValue(3)
	  spawner_3:activate()
   end
end

counter_1 has initial value = 3
every click on the button should run the script

Can sb halp ?

The code is a bit confusing, so I cleaned it up. The first thing I notice is that there is no code shown to activate the gate once the proper combo is hit. Try this:

Code: Select all

function buttonPress(sender)
   if sender.id == "wall_button_1" then
      if counter_1:getValue() == 1 then
         counter_1:setValue(0)
         -- open gate here
      else
         counter_1:setValue(3)
         spawner_1:activate()
      end
   elseif sender.id == "wall_button_2" then
      if counter_1:getValue() == 3 then
         counter_1:setValue(2)
      else
         counter_1:setValue(3)  
         spawner_2:activate()
      end
   elseif sender.id == "wall_button_3" 
      if counter_1:getValue() == 2 then
         counter_1:setValue(1)
      else
         counter_1:setValue(3)
         spawner_3:activate()
      end
   end
end

And you will probably want to include code so once the gate is open, the buttons do not continue to activate the spawners. Something like:

Code: Select all

If counter_1:getValue() > 0 then

You can put this line right before the line:

Code: Select all

   if sender.id == "wall_button_1" then

and add another "end" at the end of the function.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Thanks for the quick reply. Your version is looking better, but problem is still present. Opening gate is not a big deal, i have connector in counter_1 which should open the gate after activation(and this is working - when i toggle proper combination the doors open). The problem is: pushing the button few times in a row have no effect . . . meh. OK, I just realized that my buttons have turned on option "activate once" Problem solved, thanks to Allanius2 for fast respond.
