hi there! i have an urgent problem. i need a script to complete my game.
i have a script that is for the "collected object" and now it is from the "blow up the ant eggs" script. i does the following:

i get near the object and a text appears (press e to activate)
when i press e the killcount is +1 and the object explodes.



i would like to change it, i want the player to collect the item it must disappear but it shall NOT explode. i found out that disappearing is "destroy(e)" but i can't take away the explodion. the killcount will go +1 up that is good, this must stay. i want the player to collect 6 engine parts f.e. and when he has 6 he is allowed to pass a door. this all works but the items explode and kill the player.

can you help me with this script?

thanks!

okay i will try another one, it doesn't work at all.

@smallg: this is a script that you wrote. it's the "disarm the bomb" script. i would like to remove the ticking counter and insert that the item disappers. i tried "destroy(e)" but i did it wrong and it caused an error.

okay, here it is!
mission: you are only allowed to go through the door (missiondoor.lua) when you have collected 6 engine parts (collectable.lua). you also need a starter (collstarter.lua)
i just tried it and it works. the number of collectables and what you have to collect can all be changed to match your needs. have fun with it @ all
if you have questions i can help you make it work

thanks to smallg now it works! some of this is also based on a script by wizard of id
