Open/close door by code

Hello, I need a bit of help, I would need to know if these 2 things can be done and how.1) Open/close doors (and chests) by code lines and not involving keys2) Check if a container has a determinated item (the function to ask for an item tag)I haven't touched D'jinni in months but I had an idea.... ;D Thanks for the help in advance!!!

I'll try to answer myslef a part of the question.... digging NWN functions I found this:

// Unlocked an object with the tag DOOR_TAGvoid main(){ object oDoor = GetObjectByTag("DOOR_TAG"); SetLocked(oDoor, FALSE);}

Is that ok for D'jinni too? ???

seems like it would work, but i'm curious, why would you need this anyway ? i guess i'd need a scenario to get my brain around your question ....

I can only tell a 'puzzle' ;D What about the checking contents of a container? I want the player to have put certain items in certain containers.... I saw the 'inventorydisturb' trigger, would that do? :angel:Thanks!!!

 

[Gamewidow]

if you make your containers into "storage" (by setting "is storage" to True) would that not achieve the same thing without a script ? That way you can even take stuff out again

I believe arkray wants to create a puzzle in which the player has to put specific items in specific containers, and only then will a door be unlocked.Yes, SetLocked should do. As for the OnInventoryDisturbed action, this might be of help:void main() { object oItem = GetInventoryDisturbItem(); int nAction = GetInventoryDisturbType(); if (nAction == INVENTORY_DISTURB_TYPE_ADDED && CompareTag(GetTag(oItem),"item_tag_here",TRUE) { SetLocked(GetObjectByTag("puzzle_door"),FALSE); SpeakString("*click*"); }}

THANK YOU!!!!!! That is what I need!!! Or aproximately, because the number of puzzles is increasing I have a friend who is writing the clues. eace: speakstring function will be useful too if it does what I think it does, make inanimated objects display a message.

But if you use the SpeakString function how can you do for translating the string in others languages without modify the script?bye

 

[Arkray_gog]

Errr, that would be impossible, it is being written in English for especific reasons.... sorry. You'll know why if I ever complete it.

OOOOOOOK!I have a problem, Ican't make a placeable to store items... I even assigned an storage template in the store part, set usable when empty to true and nothing... I can't put things inside the container... any help please?What I would actually want is something similar to the sephirots thing, where every pylon only accepted a sephi...Thanks!
