Spawn Spider Cocoon Script Not Working

[Legacy_UnrealJedi]

               Hello all...

I have a script designed to destroy and then spawn spider cocoons whenever the PC enters the area, spider-infested tunnels. basically, the script is supposed to destroy all cocoons and then make 10 separate d100 rolls and on success, spawn cocoons at specific waypoints. I am a scripting neophyte and could use some help. Why is my script (below) not working? I created it using LS's Script Generator and then modified it. Obviously, I am not doing something right. Thanks in advance!

               Any time you put a "return;" in there, you are telling the script to end. So if you put a return after an "if" and if that condtion is met, the script will end. So instead put code inside curly brackets( { } ) for those "ifs". If the condition is met, that part of the script will run. If the condition is not met, it won't. You also needed a loop to destroy all the cocoons (The loop I put in assumes that this cave is the only area in your mod that has the "SpiderwebCocoon" tag. If you are using objects with that tag elsewhere then the loop will need to be changed.). As it was you were only destroying one. I changed some of the "ifs" to show you but not all of them.

               Thanks GoG. I should have known I would need a loop to destroy all of the cocoons (yes, they only needed to be destroyed in this area). I've seen other scripts with loops. I did not know, however, that I needed to separate the die rolls with curly brackets. Thanks for the help. I'll correct the rest of the script and try it out.

Thanks again!

               I should send you my king weaver script.
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_UnrealJedi]

               Okay, I replaced all of the returns with the curly brackets and tested the area. It is still not spawning any cocoons. I also checked to make sure the script was in the OnEnter of the area properties...it is.

GoG, do you mind taking another look and see if I missed anything?

Thanks...here it is..

               At least some of the cocoons should be spawning if everything is spelled correctly. Try some debug lines in there and see what it does. I added a few as an example (highlighted green).

               If waypoints in other areas have the same name, that could also be causing a problem.  If the waypoints are not unique, then you need to use getnearest...
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_UnrealJedi]

               Check this out...I decided to eliminate the d100 rolls. It occurred to me that the objective is to make sure that there are always cocoons in the area. I changed the script to simply spawn in cocoons at the waypoints. I kept the different waypoints because I didn't feel like going back and changing them all to one tag but I will if I have to. I kept GoG's script to go through the loop and destroy all of the cocoons. However, my script is still not spawning cocoons. I'm pretty sure I am not declaring something right but cannot figure out what. See below....thanks in advance for the help!

               It works perfectly.

               ffbj, did you try out the script? If so, it worked for you?

               Yes I put it in a module, my test module. Placed some spider cocoons, which were destroyed on enter of the trigger, which at the same time spawned all the other cocoons at the desinated waypoints.
Things to check:
1. Make sure the resref of the created placeable is correct.
2. Check the case of the wp's and make sure they are correct.
3. Make sure you have all the wp's as unique. You can't have other wp with the same name in other areas.
If you want I can upload the test module I did onto the vault.

               perhaps it is time to do away with the waypoints and just use the OnDeath  event.

               I wanted to let you all know that I have solved this issue. I divided the script between an OnEnter script and an OnExit script. Now when the PC enters the area the cocoons are spawned, and when they leave they are destroyed. It works perfectly.

               Cool good idea.  You might like this:

//place on the onenter of a trigger around a light source, a torch for instance. Usually a 4-5 meter box. .
//make the torch or light no ambient glow and deactivated.
//Make the tag of the torch LightSource
//ffbj lightsourceon
void main()
{
object oPC=GetEnteringObject();
if (GetIsDay())
return;
if (!GetIsPC(oPC))
return;
object oTorch=GetNearestObjectByTag("LightSource", oPC);
if (GetLocalInt(oTorch, "On")== 1)
return;
  {
  effect eLightY = EffectVisualEffect(VFX_DUR_LIGHT_YELLOW_20);
  AssignCommand(oTorch, ActionPlayAnimation(ANIMATION_PLACEABLE_ACTIVATE));
  ApplyEffectToObject( DURATION_TYPE_PERMANENT,eLightY, oTorch);
  SetPlaceableIllumination(oTorch, TRUE);
  SetLocalInt(oTorch, "On", 1);
  SetLocalInt(oPC,"Lighter", 1);
  RecomputeStaticLighting(GetArea(oTorch));
  }

}


//place on the onexit of a trigger around a light source, a torch for instance. Usually a 4-5 meter box. .
//make the torch or light no ambient glow and deactivated.
//Make the tag of the torch LightSource
//ffbj lightsourceoff
void main()
{
object oPC=GetExitingObject();

if (!GetIsPC(oPC)) return;

  object oTorch = GetNearestObjectByTag("LightSource", oPC);
  if ((GetLocalInt(oPC,"Lighter") != 1) && (GetLocalInt(oTorch,"On")!=1))
  return;
  AssignCommand(oTorch, ActionPlayAnimation(ANIMATION_PLACEABLE_DEACTIVATE));
  SetPlaceableIllumination(oTorch, FALSE);
  RecomputeStaticLighting(GetArea(oTorch));
  DeleteLocalInt(oTorch, "On");
 effect eLightEffect = GetFirstEffect(oTorch);
   //Search for negative effects
   while(GetIsEffectValid(eLightEffect))

   {
       if (GetEffectType(eLightEffect) ==  EFFECT_TYPE_VISUALEFFECT)

           {
           RemoveEffect(oTorch, eLightEffect);
           }
       eLightEffect = GetNextEffect(oTorch);
   }
