Yeah I just wrote it down quickly.
The beep is just there for "debug purpose" so I would take it out and replace it with the code which should be executed when the if statement is "true".
The action name was to long, yeah maybe but again I just wrote it as scetch and not "working" code

I must of got excited, I forgot what I wanted... It was when the 0,0 of my screen looks at the model it does the action. Right now its if im within 200 quants x value it happens, not if ive got my crosshair over it (which is 0,0 of the screen always)

Anyways this is what ive got done with the script you gave me as a Automatic Door trigger:

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//Leafs automatic door action script/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ACTION door_vert {

my.shadow = on;//casts a shadow
my.gravity = off;//gravity off or your door might float away
wait(1);
my.polygon= on;//polygon collison
c_updatehull(my,my.frame);//updates the collison once the door is moved to its new position
wait(2);

while(1)//how many times to run the if statement //should only be a value of 1 for doors
{

//if the player is within clipping distance //If player is within 200 quants do
if(my.clipped != on && vec_dist(my.x,player.x) <= 200)
//if the player is within clippin distance //If player is within 200 quants do
{
my.z + = 140*1 ;//play with "140" for how far door goes up
time_smooth = 0.666;//smooths vertical movement over 3 frames incase of hardware lag

wait(1000);//time in millo-seconds before the door goes down

my.z - = 140*1 ;//play with "140" for how far door goes down
time_smooth = 0.666;//smooths vertical movement over 3 frames incase of hardware lag
wait(100);//time in millo-seconds before the door re-opens //only if you are still in range
}
wait(1);
}
}
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//End of Leafs door action script////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////




Thanks, Leaf

Would the if statement be:

if(my.clipped != on && vec_dist(my.x,player.x) <= 200 && vec_dist(my.y,player.y) == 0 && vec_dist(my.z,player.z) == 0)


??

Another Bumps, Xauthor came close to solving it but not quite, still ned help please.

But I dont't get it
What do You want to make? Just doors which woorks only when You are close enough and when you touch it with crosshair?

so simple trigger event is not good enough?

function door_event
{
if(event_type == event_trigger) && (vec_to_screen(me,camera) ==1)
{do action;}
}

action door_action
{
my.enable_trigger = on;
my.trigger_range = 200;
my.event = door_event;
}

or
function door_event
{
if(vec_dist(my.x,player.x) <= 200) && (vec_to_screen(me,camera) ==1)
{do action;}
}

okay I used your example:

Quote:

---

function door_event
{
if(vec_dist(my.x,player.x) <= 200) && (vec_to_screen(me,camera) ==1)
{do action;}
}

---

and when I compile, then run, it crashes after the load screen a few frames in saying bad:

if(my.clipped != on && vec_dist(my.x,player.x) <= 200 && vec_to_screen(me,camera) ==1)



wich is the IF statement

if you use
if(vec_dist(my.x,player.x) <= 200) && (vec_to_screen(me,camera) ==1)

this one
if(my.clipped != on && vec_dist(my.x,player.x) <= 200 && vec_to_screen(me,camera) ==1)
is useless... specialy clipped becouse if(vec_to_screen) = if visible
try just to copy/pste my code and we'll see what will happend

I still get the same error using your code. Plus if I copied and pasted you have one too many ")" Also, removed my.clipped !=on but still no good.

Bump for more help
