more than 1 door per zone? in Mapping

Created on: June 03, 2016, 01:01:13 pm

Title say it all but ill explain in more depth..

Zones -

I have my start zone which leads to the graveyard zone

the graveyard zone leads to the church zone & trainyard zone

the church zone lead to the trainyard zone

Triggers -

graveyard side i have a trigger which activates the trainyard zone and vice-versa

haven't set up the church doors/triggers yet as im guessing ill get the same problem.

Problem is when i buy the door into the graveyard zone the zombies will start spawning in the trainyard zone when its not unlocked but if i uncomment this line out

Code Snippet

Plaintext

	// Trainyard Zone
 
	add_adjacent_zone( "trainyard_zone", "graveyard_zone", "enter_graveyard_zone" );

the zombies will spawn in the correct zones that are unlocked

My zone file:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

dlc3_zone_init()
{
    //Spawn zone

	add_adjacent_zone( "start_zone", "graveyard_zone", "enter_graveyard_zone" );
 
	//Graveyard Zone
 
	add_adjacent_zone( "graveyard_zone", "church_zone", "enter_church_zone" );
	add_adjacent_zone( "graveyard_zone", "trainyard_zone", "enter_trainyard_zone" );
 
	//Church Zone
 
	add_adjacent_zone( "church_zone", "trainyard_zone", "enter_trainyard_zone" );
 
	// Trainyard Zone
 
	add_adjacent_zone( "trainyard_zone", "graveyard_zone", "enter_graveyard_zone" );

I hope i explained that right, any ideas?

I haven't done any zoning for a long time, so I don't remember it well, but I think your problem is that you have the same flag for different zones:
The script waits until the flag is set and then activates all the zones with that flag. So, in this case, when you open a door with "enter_trainyard_zone" flag, it will "activate" the script for these:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

add_adjacent_zone( "graveyard_zone", "trainyard_zone", "enter_trainyard_zone" ); // 1
add_adjacent_zone( "church_zone", "trainyard_zone", "enter_trainyard_zone" ); // 2

Then all of these zones will be activated (graveyard and trainyard because of 1 and church and trainyard because of 2).
You have to give them different names (in the script and in the trigger), for example:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

dlc3_zone_init()
{
    //Spawn zone

	add_adjacent_zone( "start_zone", "graveyard_zone", "enter_graveyard_zone_a" );
 
	//Graveyard Zone
 
	add_adjacent_zone( "graveyard_zone", "church_zone", "enter_church_zone_a" );
	add_adjacent_zone( "graveyard_zone", "trainyard_zone", "enter_trainyard_zone_a" );
 
	//Church Zone
 
	add_adjacent_zone( "church_zone", "trainyard_zone", "enter_trainyard_zone_b" );
 
	// Trainyard Zone
 
	add_adjacent_zone( "trainyard_zone", "graveyard_zone", "enter_graveyard_zone_b" );

snip

So would i have to make 2 info volumes for the same zone and call 1 "trainyard_zone_a" and the other "trainyard_zone_b"

or still have just the 1 info volume called "trainyard_zone"?

this is getting confusing lol
