ent_create function from text file - 08/21/08 23:47
Hey,
I'm reading from a text file and I want to define a created entity's action by reading a string but it won't let me I get an engine error (E1513). It's the third parameter in ent_create that fails when I put a string in place of NULL. If NULL is there it runs fine but my entity then has no behaviour.
Here's my text file:

Code:
//Place level objects (inc trees) file_find(fhandle,"[objects]"); while(eoo < 1){ file_str_read (fhandle,tempstr); if(str_cmpni(tempstr,"[endobjects]")){ eoo = 1; } else{ temppos.x = file_var_read(fhandle); temppos.y = file_var_read(fhandle); temppos.z = file_var_read(fhandle); file_str_read(fhandle,tempstr2); ent_create(tempstr,temppos,NULL); } }
Here's my text file:
Code:
[objects] palm.mdl 0 0 250 tree palm.mdl 100 300 250 tree [endobjects]
