Like reach round 50 and a model appears outside the map... maybe even with a trigger that plays a song or fx or gives the player points.

level.round_number

that should give you the round number. It also might help to use waittills such as:

level waittill( "start_of_round" );
//or
level waittill( "end_of_round" );

level waittill("between_round_over");
if(level.round_number == 50)
{
do stuff
}

I have this and nothing happens. I want it to spawn in a model and trigger and also play a sound when the round is reached. The model and shootable trigger are shot and then the shootable trig opens a secret door.

function distant()
{
	
level waittill("between_round_over");
if(level.round_number == 5)
{
IPrintLnBold ("Super Easter Egg confirmed");
}

You need a loop that will constantly check each time then break when you get to round x and execute your code, since this will just return on first notify since it won't be round 5 (it will be round 1 or 2).

To be honest I don't know what your change does exactly. Should I just run function distant() and then this?

}//start again

the change is that before it only checked once now it does it forever

Since you already helped me with a shootable script, I figured I could use that one and combine with this for the actual reward part of the distant easter egg. I'm sure I screwed something up when combining them but let me know if this would work

function tony_distant()
{

	trig = GetEnt("distant_trig", "targetname");

	level.trig_total = tony_trigs.size;
	level.trig_current = 0;

	foreach(trig in trigs)
		{
		trig Hide(); //you could use Hide();
		IPrintLnBold("trigger hidden");
		hide_model(); //calling the hdie_model() function
		}

	while(1) //repeats forever

	level waittill("between_round_over"); //when round changes this runs
	if(level.round_number == 5) //if the round number is 50


	foreach(trig in trigs)
		{
		trig TriggerEnable(1); //you could use Show();
		IPrintLnBold("trigger shown");
		trig thread shoot_tony2();
		}	

}


function hide_model2()
{
model = GetEnt( self.target, "targetname" );
model Hide();
IPrintLnBold("model hidden");	
}


function shoot_tony2()
{
model = GetEnt( self.target, "targetname" );
model Show();
IPrintLnBold("model shown");

while(1)
	{
	self waittill( "damage", amount, attacker, direction_vec, point, type, tagName, modelName, partName, weapon, dFlags, inflictor, chargeLevel );
	if(weapon == GetWeapon("bo3_m1911"))
		{
		IPrintLnBold("Yayyyyy");
		PlayFX("fx_smk_explode_lg",model.origin);
		model PlaySound("Samlullaby");
		wait(0.05); //only is you&#39;re playing sound
		model Delete();
		level.tonytrigs_current++;
		IPrintLnBold("Collected tony "+level.tonytrigs_current+"/"+level.tonytrigs_total);	
		tony_reward();
		break;
		}
	}
}

trig = GetEnt("distant_trig", "targetname");

level.trig_total = tony_trigs.size;

instantly

tony_trigs - not defined

and its not like you just mis typed "trig" either - coz that would still be an error - as it isnt an array

hide_model()

doesnt exist - and seemingly would do nothing

while(1) //repeats forever

syntax error... no parenthesis...

if(level.round_number == 5) //if the round number is 50

syntax error... no parenthesis... - again ( and thats also round 5 - not 50... )

level.tonytrigs_current++;

another error - level.tonytrigs_current is not defined, so that is

"undefined" + 1

which also means that...

IPrintLnBold("Collected tony "+level.tonytrigs_current+"/"+level.tonytrigs_total);

is also yet another error... ( infact, even better - its "two" errors in one line )

and

tony_reward();

is again - another undefined function

Please pay more attention to the scripts you post to people or refrain from giving them. Thats 7 complete break errors

Thank you for your help Harry with the syntax stuff, I tried to sort out the syntax errors, but still feel the
while (1) //repeats forever
level waittill("between_round_over"); //when round changes this runs
if level.round_number == 5 stuff needs parenthesis. I am more concerned with the concept of the script, that everything lines up, since this is 2 scripts mixed that include some concepts I am not so familiar with. I am going to test it soon assuming the syntax is cleaned up.

function tony_distant()
{

	trig = GetEnt("distant_trig", "targetname");

	level.trig_total = trigs.size;
	level.trig_current = 0;

	foreach(trig in trigs)
		{
		trig Hide(); //you could use Hide();
		IPrintLnBold("trigger hidden");
		hide_model2(); //calling the hdie_model() function
		}

	while (1) //repeats forever

	level waittill("between_round_over"); //when round changes this runs
	if level.round_number == 5 //if the round number is 50


	foreach(trig in trigs)
		{
		trig TriggerEnable(1); //you could use Show();
		IPrintLnBold("trigger shown");
		trig thread shoot_tony2();
		}	

}


function hide_model2()
{
model = GetEnt( self.target, "targetname" );
model Hide();
IPrintLnBold("model hidden");	
}


function shoot_tony2()
{
model = GetEnt( self.target, "targetname" );
model Show();
IPrintLnBold("model shown");

while(1)
	{
	self waittill( "damage", amount, attacker, direction_vec, point, type, tagName, modelName, partName, weapon, dFlags, inflictor, chargeLevel );
	if(weapon == GetWeapon("bo3_m1911"))
		{
		IPrintLnBold("Yayyyyy");
		PlayFX("fx_smk_explode_lg",model.origin);
		model PlaySound("Samlullaby");
		wait(0.05); //only is you&#39;re playing sound
		model Delete();
		level.trigs_current++;	
		break;
		}
	}

trig = GetEnt("distant_trig", "targetname");

	level.trig_total = trigs.size;

still have an error immediatly

trig - is not an array

while (1) //repeats forever

you still havent added a parenthesis here

if level.round_number == 5 //if the round number is 50

5 still isnt 50

hide_model2(); //calling the hdie_model() function

is running on "level" not the trig - level has no "target"

level.trigs_current++;

is "still" a undeclared variable ( you have spelt it wrong )

dude your not even paying attention to what im saying

trig = GetEnt("distant_trig", "targetname");

	level.trig_total = trigs.size;

"TRIG" IS NOT AN ARRAY

for the third flipping time

if level.round_number == 5 //if the round number is 50

and that is EVEN WORSE and STILL not round 50

while (1) //repeats forever

this still has no damn {}

posting bad code is one thing, fixing it but missing some is another - but three times? completely ignoring all the major errors that ive literally called out multiple times?

almost

model = GetEnt( self.target, "targetname" );

self == level

almost model = GetEnt( self.target, "targetname" ); self == level

Ye that line used to be in a new function

model = GetEnt( trig.target, "targetname" );

I actually made the script nearly from scratch before you posted your new one mathfag, obviously I am not very good at scripting stuff but let me know if I'm on the right track. I'll use yours for my map since its guaranteed to be better, but mine is a start I think.

function distant_monster()
{
	trig = GetEnt("distant_trig", "targetname")
	model = GetEnt("distant_model", "targetname")
	trig Hide();
	model Hide();

}
function show_distant()
{

	while (1) 

	level waittill("between_round_over"); 
	if (level.round_number == 5) 
	trig Show();
	model Show();
	IPrintLnBold ("model shown");

	trig thread shoot_distant();
}
function shoot_distant()
{	
	self waittill( "damage", amount, attacker, direction_vec, point, type, tagName, modelName, partName, weapon, dFlags, inflictor, chargeLevel );
	if(weapon == GetWeapon("bo3_m1911"))
	{
		trig Delete();
		model Delete();
		PlayFX("fx_smk_explode_lg",model.origin);
		IPrintLnBold ("Yayyyyyyyy")

	}

}

while (1) 

	level waittill("between_round_over"); 
	if (level.round_number == 5)

are you ever gonna learn to use the {} ffs....

function show_distant()
{

	while (1) 

	level waittill("between_round_over"); 
	if (level.round_number == 5) 
	trig Show();
	model Show();
	IPrintLnBold ("model shown");

	trig thread shoot_distant();
}

"trig" AND "model" are both undeclared variables within this functions space too...

function shoot_distant()
{	
	self waittill( "damage", amount, attacker, direction_vec, point, type, tagName, modelName, partName, weapon, dFlags, inflictor, chargeLevel );
	if(weapon == GetWeapon("bo3_m1911"))
	{
		trig Delete();
		model Delete();
		PlayFX("fx_smk_explode_lg",model.origin);
		IPrintLnBold ("Yayyyyyyyy")

	}

}

same again here... and "trig" is "self" here anyway...

show_distant()

is not threaded on anything anywhere

test your code... stop posting game and compile crashing errors

this "only" needs a model, no trigger, and to be threaded

OK thanks, just out of curiosity, why did you choose to do model with no trigger in script? I assume I would target the trig with the model with w, but most scripts use trig targeting model. Is there any reason to use one or the other?

1 - dont need a trigger
2 - hit detection will be "exact"
3 - using a trigger "as well" is a waste of your "limited" entities

OK that is much better, I just have never seen model only in a script. Thanks again
