Hi -SpuD- From what I can tell, you have the same code except for a different door. Code: thread double_doors4(); { trig = getent("double_door_trigger3","targetname"); leftdoor3 = getent("leftdoor3","targetname"); rightdoor3 = getent("rightdoor3","targetname"); while(1) { trig waittill("trigger"); leftdoor3 rotateto((0,0,90),1); rightdoor3 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); wait(2); leftdoor3 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); rightdoor3 rotateto((0,0,90),1); } } That's the code from double_doors4(); and you're calling door3 instead of door4 lol. Instead of leftdoor3 make it leftdoor4 and so on and so forth... update the getent's too. Unless you're planning to move double_door3() again, I suggest changing it and see if it works. And finally, on your second script you have Code: main() { thread cage(); } thread cage() { trig = getent("cage_trigger","targetname"); cageleft1 = getent("cageleft1","targetname"); cageright1 = getent("cageright1","targetname"); while(1) { trig waittill("trigger"); cageleft1 rotateto((0,0,90),1); cageright1 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); wait(2); cageleft1 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); cageright1 rotateto((0,0,90),1); } } Remove the SECOND thread cage() and replace it with just cage(). That may be why it doesn't work. Hope this helps!

Man in my rush to give u an answer to your double door problem the other day, I wrote a mistake in it. As djheps says remove the thread from the functions that are written outside of main().

Ok thanks guys :D I have taken out what i think you mean Code: main() { thread double_doors(); thread double_doors2(); thread double_doors3(); thread double_doors4(); } double_doors() { trig = getent("double_door_trigger","targetname"); leftdoor1 = getent("leftdoor1","targetname"); rightdoor1 = getent("rightdoor1","targetname"); while(1) { trig waittill("trigger"); leftdoor1 rotateto((0,0,90),1); rightdoor1 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); wait(2); leftdoor1 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); rightdoor1 rotateto((0,0,90),1); } } double_doors2() { trig = getent("double_door_trigger2","targetname"); leftdoor2 = getent("leftdoor2","targetname"); rightdoor2 = getent("rightdoor2","targetname"); while(1) { trig waittill("trigger"); leftdoor2 rotateto((0,0,90),1); rightdoor2 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); wait(2); leftdoor2 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); rightdoor2 rotateto((0,0,90),1); } } double_doors3(); { trig = getent("double_door_trigger3","targetname"); leftdoor3 = getent("leftdoor3","targetname"); rightdoor3 = getent("rightdoor3","targetname"); while(1) { trig waittill("trigger"); leftdoor3 rotateto((0,0,90),1); rightdoor3 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); wait(2); leftdoor3 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); rightdoor3 rotateto((0,0,90),1); } } double_doors4(); { trig = getent("double_door_trigger4","targetname"); leftdoor4 = getent("leftdoor4","targetname"); rightdoor4 = getent("rightdoor4","targetname"); while(1) { trig waittill("trigger"); leftdoor4 rotateto((0,0,90),1); rightdoor4 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); wait(2); leftdoor4 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); rightdoor4 rotateto((0,0,90),1); } } just about to try :D Wtf still BAD Syntax!!

Make sure that in your threads you DON'T have a ";" semicolon. I just noticed that some of your threads have double_doors4(); <--- a semi colon. Don't use a semi colon, just leave it blank like double_doors4() This applies to all of your scripting. edited on Oct. 2, 2007 12:07 pm by djheps

Sorry for Double-Post but if it might be easier for you, here's the correct code: Code: main() { thread double_doors(); thread double_doors2(); thread double_doors3(); thread double_doors4(); } double_doors() { trig = getent("double_door_trigger","targetname"); leftdoor1 = getent("leftdoor1","targetname"); rightdoor1 = getent("rightdoor1","targetname"); while(1) { trig waittill("trigger"); leftdoor1 rotateto((0,0,90),1); rightdoor1 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); wait(2); leftdoor1 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); rightdoor1 rotateto((0,0,90),1); } } double_doors2() { trig = getent("double_door_trigger2","targetname"); leftdoor2 = getent("leftdoor2","targetname"); rightdoor2 = getent("rightdoor2","targetname"); while(1) { trig waittill("trigger"); leftdoor2 rotateto((0,0,90),1); rightdoor2 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); wait(2); leftdoor2 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); rightdoor2 rotateto((0,0,90),1); } } double_doors3() { trig = getent("double_door_trigger3","targetname"); leftdoor3 = getent("leftdoor3","targetname"); rightdoor3 = getent("rightdoor3","targetname"); while(1) { trig waittill("trigger"); leftdoor3 rotateto((0,0,90),1); rightdoor3 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); wait(2); leftdoor3 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); rightdoor3 rotateto((0,0,90),1); } } double_doors4() { trig = getent("double_door_trigger4","targetname"); leftdoor4 = getent("leftdoor4","targetname"); rightdoor4 = getent("rightdoor4","targetname"); while(1) { trig waittill("trigger"); leftdoor4 rotateto((0,0,90),1); rightdoor4 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); wait(2); leftdoor4 rotateto((0,0,-90),1); rightdoor4 rotateto((0,0,90),1); } }

Wiked Thankyou everyone thats helped me It works now! Fianlly no more lol Amazing how a semicolon can screw everything up LOL One last question about the rotation of the doors at the moment they start sideways and move sideways :D would i need to just fiddle around with the angles to get it right? or is there a set angle it only works at 90 or something?? Thanks again everyone edited on Oct. 2, 2007 12:26 pm by spudy12 edited on Oct. 2, 2007 12:27 pm by spudy12

fiddle with the angles and also the rotate command : hers a script tutorial for the other rotate and move functions. http://www.modsonline.com/Tutorials-read-121.html i think you can also use the rotateyaw function instead of rotateto

not sure if its implemented in COD 2 or not, but with COD 4 you can also use rotateyaw and rotatepitch. also be sure you have an origin in your door so it knows where to start the rotation.
