Gonna need lots of lua help

[Jay Mofo Mills]

I have a new map I'm working on ff_castle_island. It's going to be objective based with command points and flag captures....... Ideally. MY problem atm is this, I borrowed and modified code from ff_dropdown.

So far I can get the generator up and running, the light bridge working etc. I would like it so that a Red team members detpack destroys the generator again so the doorhack closes and needs repaired again. Here is the modified borrowed code I'm using. Note I changed the 1 and 0 for a few functions bluefire/bluegenup in certain places attempting to get it to work. Any help would be great.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ideally this destroys the generator when it's running
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

blue_gen_trigger = trigger_ff_script:new({ team = Team.kBlue })
bluefire = 0

function blue_gen_triggernexplode( trigger_entity )
if IsDetpack( trigger_entity ) then
local detpacka = CastToDetpack( trigger_entity )
if detpacka:GetTeamId() == defenders then
if bluegenup == 1 then
if bluefire == 1 then
OutputEvent( "blue_doorhack", "Close" )
BroadCastMessage("Generator Destroyed - Light Bridge Deactivated!")
bluefire = 0
bluegenup = 0
end
end
end

end
return EVENT_ALLOWED
end

function blue_gen_trigger:allowed( trigger_entity ) return EVENT_DISALLOWED
end


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- This basically says if you're in the trigger brush w/a spanner then bluescannerclang==1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

blue_gen_repair_trigger = func_button:new({ team = Team.kBlue })
blue_gen_repair_trigger_script = trigger_ff_script:new()
bluespannerclang = 0
bluegenup = 0
blueclangcntr = 0


function blue_gen_repair_trigger_scriptntouch( touch_entity )
if IsPlayer( touch_entity ) then
local player = CastToPlayer( touch_entity )
if player:GetActiveWeaponName() == "ff_weapon_spanner" then
bluespannerclang = 1
DisplayMessage( player, "You are repairing the Light Bridge" )
end
end
end

function blue_gen_repair_trigger_scriptnendtouch()
bluespannerclang = 0
end

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- This basically says if bluescannerclang==1 aand the generator is down you can fix it
-- What does bluefire do?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

function blue_gen_repair_triggerndamage()
if bluespannerclang == 1 then
if bluegenup == 0 then
if bluefire == 0 then
OutputEvent( "bluespannerhit", "PlaySound" )
blueclangcntr = blueclangcntr + 1
if blueclangcntr == 10 then
BroadCastMessage("The Generator is halfway fixed")
end
if blueclangcntr > 20 then
blueclangcntr = 0
BroadCastMessage("The generator is fixed. Light Bridge Activated!")
OpenDoor("blue_doorhack")
bluespannerclang = 0
bluegenup = 1
bluefire = 1
end
end
end
end
return EVENT_DISALLOWED
end

Try looking up the ff_security_b1 lua and map. I believe that is about what you need. The map remaker was Exo (Churchmoth) ask him if you need any help I presume.

[Jay Mofo Mills]

I'll try that lua thanks. Exo said he didnt know much lua

[Jay Mofo Mills]

So I tried usind the lua from security. Most of it works. Problem is the red detpacks dont actually destroy the generator and OUTPUT closing the blue_doorhack......



here is lua. I need help
