A sequence of actions... Created 20 years ago2004-08-24 18:47:51 UTC by spark

Alright, I have the monster_scientist entity out, also commonly known as the scientist.

What I want to do is make him follow a sequence of actions; first make him do the sitidle sequence followed by sitstand and finished off by dieforward1.

I put the entity on my map and choose sitidle as his default Animation Sequence. Now the problem is when I compile and run the map, the scientist just stands there instead of using his sitidle animation.

Any thoughts? Help appreciated!

okay, you gotta trigger it and to gett all three to work at once use a multimanager (i suppose) okay, first if you want the scientist to sit right when the player starts the map trigger it with a trigger auto, put the name of your scripted sequence in the trigger properties of the trigger auto.

I tried your advice Floater619, and it didn't help.

Here's what I did. I got the trigger_auto entity out and put it inside the info_player_start entity, just in case. In the Target field I entered my scientist's name, switched Trigger State to ON, and finally typed in the sitidle sequence in the Global State to Read field.

When I ran the map the scientist still just stood there, I'm dumbfounded. I figure I did something wrong within the trigger_auto properties, I'm still quite new to triggers, only managed to make one work so far.

Can you tell me what I did wrong?

setup your scientist entity like you did,
put in a scripted_sequence entity, put these in the fields:

Target- Name of the scientist
Targetmonster- Name of scientist again
animation- the animation name, sitidle3

now put it's name to something like, scripted,
now put the trigger_auto entity in, and set it's target to the name of the scripted_sequence.

that should work, if it doesn't email me the map. ktreige@hotmail.com

It worked! Thanks!
