yes there is still abug with custom scripts at moment m8, forgot to tell you that sorry 17 is the max custom scripts at any 1 time on a map it seems... so 17 barrels with hurt damage or 5 of your automatic doors and 12 barrels not to great but it has been reported so hopefully we get it fixed sooner than later... glad it helped you though m8 that's the same thing sort of that I have used it for

thanks mate, i will forgot the compo as it's absolutely useless to have max 17 custom scripts in a game. i have lot of ideas that can't fit into *ONLY* 17 custom scripts..

i hoped that this V1.0071 hotfix solved this problem... too bad

well apparently there is sort of a fix m8, but I have not tried it cos im not a scripter like you but if you add the following to the script at the top just above the _main (e) it might fix things?



I will also give it ago and see what happens but I don't really know what im doing lol...

The init function fixes the issue. I just confirmed it.

I just asked this in a different thread but what does init do differently? What is going on when adding that to a script that is not happening when you dont have it?

That part only Lee knows I think. I'm pretty sure init isn't part of Lua itself, but rather just a method by which Lee has provided for entity initialization. Why it fixes an internal bug in his code only he can say probably.

Very odd that this HurtPlayer command is a damage every second and not just subtracting the specified damage on a one shot basis. That seems like it was designed for a specific purpose and we're getting it as-is. Far better would be a single shot damage, which would allow us to code our own damage over time if necessary and use it for one shot damage like custom enemy hits.

Now I need to get busy working on a one-shot damage workaround using this. I wonder if the damage is subtracted immediately when the function is called and then a timer is set internally. If so then we could probably do something like:



Which would presumably subtract 50 damage and then immediately prevent it from firing again. Has anyone tried this?

I tested 25 hurtplayer barrles on a map today, it killed me.. which of course is the point only I was not near the barrels...
yes yes I know check the check player distance did that was along way off from them all, seems to me there might be some kind of bug with the hurtplayer and the _init as every test I did resulted in a fail from what I could tell, either I died way to fast or I was not close enough to get hurt and still did. maybe I did something wrong im not sure but something is up with hurt player and the _init working together for me.

You do need to make sure that if a script is used by multiple entities that you are uniquely associated to each entity otherwise you could have problems where all scripts are acting sort of as one. So even if you were just in range of one then you might get hurt from all of them. I'd have to see the script to know how it's being coded, but it seems like that might be your problem.

Hmmm. I just looked up earlier in this thread at the toxic barrel script and it doesn't seem like what I was suggesting could happen in this case. Is that the script you are using or something modified from that?

Yeah, but it shouldn't happen if you're just using that sample script from this thread. It can happen if you have a local variable defined in your entity script and are relying on that local variable to be unique per entity. Each entity would actually use the same local variable unless you define it as a table and then assign that entity's e value as an index into the table. So, if you are still getting this issue without any such local variable then there probably is another issue going on.

No problem. I'd be happy to help if you need it. I'd have to see the full script though. But no worries. I hope you get it all worked out in time.

it's not per second, only per second in the script i gave him because it was using a timer
the HurtPlayer(e,v) does damage depending on if the code is met or not (i.e. if you put it after a distance check it'll constantly update (as fast as possible - bassed on fps i guess) while you are next to the entity

That's good to know. From the initial responses on how it worked it sounded like people were saying the function itself works that way, not the script you implemented. I'm happy to hear it is a one-shot deal. I don't want to have to code some workaround.

Yes, if there is no time check, the PlayerHurt(e,v) command remove energy every time is called, so it could drain all your energy in some seconds even with little values!
this command is very useful, i done a lot of entities that hurt player, even a radioactive barrel with "radiation clicks" sound when you get closer to it (but not too close to hurt you). i tried on a zone and it work perfectly, i can create radioactive areas in my level
a command like HealPlayer(e,v) would be very useful too

i would assume using a negative value would "heal" the player
