 |
|
Hi gang, I have NEVER successfully made up a plotscript. Amidst compiling problems, I gave up years ago and have been building the story sequences of my games as cleverly as possible over and around plotscripting.
HOWEVER... one thing that I figure is simple enough even for me to figure out, and something that I really need for my game, is a Game Over script.
All I want to do is show a backdrop, play some music, and that's it. But the OHR engine won't let me. I spent an hour FINALLY figuring out how to actually compile the script, and HamsterSpeak even says it compiles successfully; however, when I try to import it into my game, it says 0 scripts imported.
Please help. All I want is this stupid plotscript. I can live without awesome cutscenes and whatnot, but I really just want a Game Over screen. Here's my script:
| Code: | include, plotscr.hsd
include, XXXX.hsi
script,gamedeath,begin
suspendplayer
play song (song:Game Over)
show backdrop (11)
wait for key (anykey)
fade screen out (0,0,0)
game over
end |
Any help is greatly appreciated. I just want to get past this step. ><

Hello! You want "plotscript", not "script"
| Code: | | plotscript, gamedeath, begin |
"script" is only used for scripts that are only called from other scripts (or for old-style scripts)
the "plotscript" keyword creates a new-style plotscript that you will be able to attach to plotscript triggers in your game |

By the way, since Zenzizenzic you can compile and import in one step from the Script Management menu. Is there some documentation/wiki pages that need updating?

Thank you James! I knew it had to be something small and stupid. It finally works!
And TMC, what I meant when I said "compile" was 'import successfully.' It still said it had errors and everything. I finally got it to work when I realized I had to use the "include" commands. But yeah, I used the "Compile/Import" command.
Thanks for your help everyone!
