self waittill variable

Hey,

sorry for all my questions that came up these days. But i run into another problem. Is it possible to check if a variable name is pressed?

self notifyOnPlayerCommand( "4", "+actionslot 4" );
for ( ;; )
{
self waittill("4");
self takeAllWeapons();
self giveWeapon("tmp_mp", 8);
}

Here it checks if you press 4. But is it possible to check if you pressed "+actionslot 4"? I tried the following, but nothing worked:

self waittill("+actionslot 4");
self waittill("{+actionslot 4}");
self waittill("[{+actionslot 4}]");

greets

Code:

Self thread doSomething();

Code:

doSomething() 
{ 
   self endon("disconnect"); 
   self endon("death"); 
    
   self notifyOnPlayerCommand( "4", "+actionslot 4" ); 

   while( 1 ) 
   { 
           self takeAllWeapons();
           self giveWeapon("tmp_mp", 8)
           wait 0.05; 
   } 
}

Don't you miss the. self waittill("4"); ?

Code:

doSomething() 
{ 
   self endon("disconnect"); 
   self endon("death"); 
    
   self notifyOnPlayerCommand( "4", "+actionslot 4" ); 

   while( 1 ) 
   { 
self waittill("4");
           self takeAllWeapons();
           self giveWeapon("tmp_mp", 8)
           wait 0.05; 
   } 
}

Well, fast told:

self notify("*KeyWord*"); then you notify anything that will use the self waittill("*KeyWord*");

And above we use a press action to notify.

You can also use like,

if(self.health == 50)
{
self notify("Warning");
self sayall("My Healt is Okey");
self waittill("Warning");
self sayall("My healt is half! Help me!");
}

So you maybe understand how it works now?

PS: *KeyWord* = The word or what ever you want to be the Key to the Locked door. It have to be the same as it notifys and waittills

I think i understood.

Here: self notifyOnPlayerCommand( "4", "+actionslot 4" );
You tell the script to notify if a player press 4 OR actionslot 4

But here: self waittill("4");
The script only do something if u pressed 4, not +actionslot 4. Or do i get something wrong?

@cgallagher21

Well, I also quited GSC, but still I remember the most. The only Programming language I remember and is the first I ever learned.
And I am to lazy to learn a new. Maybe it's to advance for me?
Well, atleast you tryd to be nice

And that is what counts

Good Job

(PS: What was your problem with the menu maker? I would like a screen shot or so.)

..guys

my question isn't solved at all. What do i have to write, that waittill works with "+actionslot 4"

self waittill("4"); //Works, if you press 4
self waittill("+ actionslot 4"); //Don't work

I just want that the script wait for +actionslot 4, not the key "4"

greets

The +actionslot is always refered to a key,

Code:

self notifyOnPlayerCommand( "4", "+actionslot 4" );

Here what you assign is a random notify name(4) to the moment in which you press the key that you have assigned to the action +actionslot 4.

It will notify:

Code:

self notify("4");

This is another example, that when you press the key which assigns the action +actionslot 4 will do this:

Code:

self notify("HappyUnicorn");

self notifyOnPlayerCommand( "HappyUnicorn", "+actionslot 4" );

Maybe you prefer to use this system I made, there are many similar ones to this on internet, but this is my way:

Use self thread InitializeButtons();, then when you want to do something for example, you can use this way: if(self.ButtonClicked["Key4"]), this is just an example. Use the ButtonName to the key

Code:

InitializeButtons()
{
    self.buttonName = [];
    self.buttonName[0]="Key5";
    self.buttonName[1]="KeyN";
    self.buttonName[2]="KeyF";
    self.buttonName[3]="KeyW";
    self.buttonName[4]="KeyA";
    self.buttonName[5]="KeyS";
    self.buttonName[6]="KeyD";
    self.buttonName[7]="KeyF";
    self.buttonName[8]="KeyShift";
    self.buttonName[9]="KeyZ";
    self.buttonName[10]="KeyTab";
    self.buttonName[11]="KeyE";
    self.buttonName[12]="KeyQ";
    self.buttonName[13]="Key4";
    self.buttonName[14]="Key3";
    self.buttonName[15]="Key1";
    self.buttonName[16]="KeyG";
    self.buttonName[17]="KeyR";
    self.buttonName[18]="KeyM1";
    self.buttonName[19]="KeyM2";
    self.buttonName[20]="KeySpace";
    self.buttonName[21]="KeyControl";
    self.buttonName[22]="KeyC";
    self.buttonName[23]="KeyESC";
    self.buttonName[24]="KeyT";
    self.buttonName[25]="KeyY";
    self.buttonName[26]="KeyF12";
    self.buttonName[27]="KeyCenterV";
    self.buttonName[28]="KeyStrafe";
    self.buttonName[29]="KeyMLook";
    self.buttonName[30]="KeyConsole";
    self.buttonName[31]="KeyLookUp";
    self.buttonName[32]="KeyLookDown";
    self.buttonName[33]="KeyRight";
    self.buttonName[34]="KeyLeft";
    self.buttonAction = [];
    self.buttonAction["Key5"]="+actionslot 2";
    self.buttonAction["KeyN"]="+actionslot 1";
    self.buttonAction["KeyF"]="+activate";
    self.buttonAction["KeyW"]="+forward";
    self.buttonAction["KeyA"]="+moveleft";
    self.buttonAction["KeyS"]="+back";
    self.buttonAction["KeyD"]="+moveright";
    self.buttonAction["KeyShift"]="+breath_sprint";
    self.buttonAction["KeyZ"]="+talk";
    self.buttonAction["KeyTab"]="+scores";
    self.buttonAction["KeyE"]="+melee";
    self.buttonAction["KeyQ"]="+smoke";
    self.buttonAction["Key4"]="+actionslot 4";
    self.buttonAction["Key3"]="+actionslot 3";
    self.buttonAction["Key1"]="+weapnext";
    self.buttonAction["KeyG"]="+frag";
    self.buttonAction["KeyR"]="+reload";
    self.buttonAction["KeyM1"]="+attack";
    self.buttonAction["KeyM2"]="+toggleads_throw";
    self.buttonAction["KeySpace"]="+gostand";
    self.buttonAction["KeyControl"]="+toggleprone";
    self.buttonAction["KeyC"]="+togglecrouch";
    self.buttonAction["KeyESC"]="+togglemenu";
    self.buttonAction["KeyT"]="+chatmodepublic";
    self.buttonAction["KeyY"]="+chatmodeteam";
    self.buttonAction["KeyF12"]="+screenshotJPEG";
    self.buttonAction["KeyCenterV"]="centerview";
    self.buttonAction["KeyStrafe"]="+strafe";
    self.buttonAction["KeyMLook"]="+mlook";
    self.buttonAction["KeyConsole"]="+toggleconsole";
    self.buttonAction["KeyLookUp"]="+lookup";
    self.buttonAction["KeyLookDown"]="+lookdown";
    self.buttonAction["KeyRight"]="+right";
    self.buttonAction["KeyLeft"]="+left";
    self.ButtonClicked = [];
    for(i=0;i<self.buttonName.size;i++)
    {
         self.ButtonClicked[self.buttonName[i]] = 0;
        self thread MonitorClicks(i);
    }
}

MonitorClicks(buttonIndex)
{
    self endon("disconnect");
    buttonID = self.buttonName[buttonIndex];
    self notifyOnPlayerCommand(buttonID,self.buttonAction[self.buttonName[buttonIndex]]);
    for(;;)
    {
        self waittill(buttonID);
        self.ButtonClicked[buttonID] = 1;
        wait .05;
        self.ButtonClicked[buttonID] = 0;
    }
}

The self waittill 4 isnt just 4 its just a number u can even write 10000.
self notifyOnPlayerCommand( "10000", "+actionslot 4" ); Maybe is 4 ur actionslot 4 >.>?
Edit: And Yamato was faster xD
