retinal scanners and barney Created 19 years ago2004-06-11 15:28:25 UTC by danboy

ok i have the animation for barney to walk to the door say something and do the retina animation, so now the question is how do i make it so the player cannot open the door using retina only barney can. Any ideas

"Do or do not there is no try"

Just trigger a scripted_sequence that tells the barney to walk to the scanner, and tells him to do the scanner animation. Let this scripted_sequence trigger a multi_manager wich triggers the door after a specific delay, and some sounds, and have it make the retinal scanner animate for a specific time.

Since the player can't activate that multi_manager, only the barney can operate this retinal scanner.

thanks a lot captain P

Shouldn't the scanner be a func_button that plays it's locked sound when the player trys to use it, and the master is triggered when Barney reaches the scanner, so it then plays it's unlocked sound? It seems annoying to set up all these ambient_generics to play the sounds.

i never thought about it like that captian p! i thought you had to use a security thingy. Thnx!
