Is there a way where you can make it so when say a person enters a certain sector on the screen its says ex.Entering Refueling Bay

This thing doesn't sound easy. This takes some to explain by a professional... http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/frown.gif

In Legacy:

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Trebuchet MS, Arial, Helvetica, serif">code:</font><hr width="100%" size="1" noshade><pre>
script 1
while(1)
{
if (objsector(playerobj(0)) == X)
{
tip("Bob is cool");
}
wait(1);
} startscript(1);
</pre><hr width="100%" size="1" noshade></BLOCKQUOTE>

Replace X with a sector tag. So if you have a sector tagged 1, and you wanted it to print that text when he entered that sector you'd replace X with 1.

You seem to have uncovered a design weakness in FS. It should have been done with events so you wouldn't be running all kinds of while loops perpetually.

Actually you could do that:

This script is activated when the player walks across a linedef with type 274 and will only activate once. The lindef's tag has to match the script number.

{
tip("Bob is cool.");
}
</pre><hr width="100%" size="1" noshade></BLOCKQUOTE>


BTW, there's a missing { at the top of that script DW. http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/wink.gif

Yeah you could do it with just single linedefs. I assumed he meant anywhere in that sector.

well, if it was just the door sector that would be okay but if it was the room it would be a mess. If you do it with linedefs by the door you can have more control I think. If you use 272 it will happen every time.
