Hi all! I'm currently using this script (keymulti3) with the (doorkeymulti3) all working and all in order. But how would I get the door to need 3 keys not in any order, but named different? key1 /key2 / key3 for example?

+ Code Snippet

 
if g_Entity[e]['haskey'] == 1 and
      doorkey == 3 then
      Prompt("The gate is locked. Press E key to unlock gate")
      if g_KeyPressE == 1 then
       SetActivated(e,1)
      end

can I just add doorkey1 doorkey2 doorkey3 in to "doorkey ==3 then" and if so how do I break the line? as in does it require commas between each name?

Any help would be great! Thanks in advance

I don't own that script (though), anyway basically you has to increase a global var by one, each time you get a key (in your case "doorkey " var)

Place a keys in a map.
Attach the script to each one (those than increase var, usually "key.lua" with a bit modification, to suit yours needs)

Rename script IE: "multikey.lua"
Rename also the functions (_init and _main) in the script.

Where "key.lua" say:

+ Code Snippet

if Result < 20.0 then

Prompt ("Press E To pick up key")
	 
   if g_KeyPressE == 1 then

	if doorkey < 3 then doorkey = doorkey+1 end -- assure doorkey don't increase forever.

		PromptDuration("Collected key",3000)
		PlaySound(e,0)
		Collected(e)
		Destroy(e)
		ActivateIfUsed(e)
	end
   end --g_KeyPressE
end --Result

And attach your script to the door, it should work.

I can give you an example to get you going. here is the key script I would use.

-- LUA Script - precede every function and global member with lowercase name of script + '_main'
-- Player Collects Key
g_key_count = 0
function key_init(e)
end

function key_main(e)
 PlayerDist = GetPlayerDistance(e)
 if PlayerDist < 150 and g_PlayerHealth > 0 then
	SourceAngle = g_PlayerAngY
	while SourceAngle < 0.0 do
		SourceAngle = SourceAngle + 360.0
	end	
	while SourceAngle > 340.0 do
		SourceAngle = SourceAngle - 360.0
	end
		
    PlayerDX = (g_Entity[e]['x'] - g_PlayerPosX)
    PlayerDZ = (g_Entity[e]['z'] - g_PlayerPosZ)
	DestAngle = math.atan2( PlayerDZ , PlayerDX )
	-- Convert to degrees
	DestAngle = (DestAngle * 57.2957795) - 90.0
	
	Result = math.abs(math.abs(SourceAngle)-math.abs(DestAngle))
	if Result > 180 then
		Result = 0
	end	
	
	if Result < 20.0 then
	--[[
		SourceAngle = g_PlayerAngX
		while SourceAngle < 0.0 do
			SourceAngle = SourceAngle + 360.0
		end	
		while SourceAngle > 335.0 do
			SourceAngle = SourceAngle - 360.0
		end	
				
		DestAngle = math.atan2( PlayerDZ , PlayerDY )
		-- Convert to degrees
		DestAngle = (DestAngle * 57.2957795) - 90.0		
			
		Result = math.abs(math.abs(SourceAngle)-math.abs(DestAngle))
		if Result > 180 then
			Result = 0
		end		
		
		if Result < 25.0 then
		--]]
			Prompt ("Press E To pick up key")
	 
			if g_KeyPressE == 1 then
				PromptDuration("Collected key",3000)
				PlaySound(e,0)
				Collected(e)
				g_key_count = g_key_count + 1
				Destroy(e)
				ActivateIfUsed(e)
			end
		--end
   end
 end
end

+ Code Snippet

-- LUA Script - precede every function and global member with lowercase name of script + '_main'
-- Player Collects Key
g_key_count = 0
function key_init(e)
end

function key_main(e)
 PlayerDist = GetPlayerDistance(e)
 if PlayerDist < 150 and g_PlayerHealth > 0 then
	SourceAngle = g_PlayerAngY
	while SourceAngle < 0.0 do
		SourceAngle = SourceAngle + 360.0
	end	
	while SourceAngle > 340.0 do
		SourceAngle = SourceAngle - 360.0
	end
		
    PlayerDX = (g_Entity[e]['x'] - g_PlayerPosX)
    PlayerDZ = (g_Entity[e]['z'] - g_PlayerPosZ)
	DestAngle = math.atan2( PlayerDZ , PlayerDX )
	-- Convert to degrees
	DestAngle = (DestAngle * 57.2957795) - 90.0
	
	Result = math.abs(math.abs(SourceAngle)-math.abs(DestAngle))
	if Result > 180 then
		Result = 0
	end	
	
	if Result < 20.0 then
	--[[
		SourceAngle = g_PlayerAngX
		while SourceAngle < 0.0 do
			SourceAngle = SourceAngle + 360.0
		end	
		while SourceAngle > 335.0 do
			SourceAngle = SourceAngle - 360.0
		end	
				
		DestAngle = math.atan2( PlayerDZ , PlayerDY )
		-- Convert to degrees
		DestAngle = (DestAngle * 57.2957795) - 90.0		
			
		Result = math.abs(math.abs(SourceAngle)-math.abs(DestAngle))
		if Result > 180 then
			Result = 0
		end		
		
		if Result < 25.0 then
		--]]
			Prompt ("Press E To pick up key")
	 
			if g_KeyPressE == 1 then
				PromptDuration("Collected key",3000)
				PlaySound(e,0)
				Collected(e)
				g_key_count = g_key_count + 1
				Destroy(e)
				ActivateIfUsed(e)
			end
		--end
   end
 end
end

All I did was add A variable to the key script that will add 1 to the g_key_count variable that way you can collect keys. The next thing you would need to do is get a door script the one that is in the script bank will work and add an if statement like if g_key_count == how ever many keys then open when e is pressed. If you need further help I would be glad to help!

Thanks for you help guys! both of the scripts work fine, in terms of offering a need for more than 1 key! +1 var was what i was missing!
