Im wondering if it's possible to spawn triggers with GSC.
If so, is it possible to place a trigger somewhere and buy a gun from it or open a door with it?
I hope I can link a trigger to one of the doors in Shadows of Evil just to test if it works to open it with a trigger spawned with GSC.
Btw dont worry about me needing the targetname or something like that, I have it so just make make an example that I can learn from. :grinning:
Thanks.

Here @CoD_Modern_Gamer, Spawn your own Trigger :VerTical:

Script :

HTML:
spawnTrig(origin,width,height,cursorHint,string)
{
    trig = spawn("trigger_radius", origin, 1, width, height);
    trig setCursorHint(cursorHint, trig);
    trig setHintString( string );
    trig setvisibletoall();
    return trig;
}

function by Extinct!!!

have fun :smile:

How do I add target/targetname to trigger a door in a map?
EDIT: And how do I make a buyable weapon with a trigger.
EDIT2: As I tried to say but may not have said it good enough is that I want to add target and targetname to the trigger/weapon buy or other things that I might want to trigger/link together (maybe edit triggers in the world if possible).
I have tried to do something like this:
Code:
function buyableWeapon()
{
    trig = Spawn("trigger_use", (2300,-5350,180.75)); // This is right outside the first door in SoE for testing.
    trig.targetname = "weapon_upgrade";
    trig.target = "auto2197";
    trig.zombie_weapon_upgrade = "shotgun_pump";
    return trig;

    weap = Spawn("script_model", (2297.25, -5351, 178.75)); // This is right outside the first door in SoE for testing.
    weap.targetname = "auto2197";
    weap SetModel("wpn_t7_shotgun_spartan_world");
    return weap;
}
I dont know but this doesnt seem to work (if you can please tell me what is wrong and how to make it work). Btw dont misunderstand the code you gave me worked but here is the code I have tried to make work... :disappointed: Im not the best at coding but I feel like I have learned a bit since I started. I have learned from asking about things here on cabcon modding and from looking in the bo3 scripts that comes with the mod tools including the mod tools docs. :grinning:

But do you know how to add target, targetname, script_noteworthy, or other Radiant related properties?
Most tutorials are only covering how to do it in Radiant, how whould I do that in gsc?

@CabCon Could you or someone who knows please awnser the unawnsered question from all the way at the top of the thread. :disappointed: How do I open specific door(s) that already exists in a map (assuming you need targetname and/or target for this)and how do I make buyable weapons using triggers in gsc. :confused:
The reason I made this topic was because I could not make the trigger work to begin with.

Hi,
this is a function for open all doors and debris's:
Code:
function func_openallzombiedoors() {
    zombie_doors = GetEntArray( "zombie_door", "targetname" );
    zombie_debris = GetEntArray( "zombie_debris", "targetname" );
    if(isdefined(zombie_doors))
    {
        array::thread_all(zombie_doors, &door_think, true);
    }
    if (isDefined(zombie_debris))
    {
        array::thread_all(zombie_debris, &debris_think, true);
    }
}
The GetEntArray gets the doors or debris's from the map.
