I have a model of a gas mask which has targetname item_pickup1 and then I've got a trigger over the top which is targetname item_pickup_trig1...
So I go in game and the script run's fine and comes up with my hintstring, I interact and I get my line prints in top left as it should, and the trigger deletes fine. But I can't delete the model at all??! Help!

Code Snippet

cpp

item_pickup()
{
	item_model = GetEnt("item_pickup1", "targetname");
	item_pickup_trig = GetEnt("item_pickup_trig1", "targetname");

	item_pickup_trig sethintstring("Press and hold &&1 to pick up mask");

	item_pickup_trig waittill("trigger", player);

	item_model delete();
	item_pickup_trig delete();

	iPrintLn("Picked up Gas Mask");
}

i am nab at scripting, you can try this
item_pickup_trig waittill("trigger"); But what i was really wondering is that, in your map in radiant is it misc_model or script_model, it should be script_model as far as i know. That's what can i suggest right now, hope you solve it.

Try this and check if it prints the error message. If it does, you have mispelled the kvp or haven´t set the model as script_model

Code Snippet

Plaintext

item_pickup()
{
	item_model = GetEnt("item_pickup1", "targetname");
	item_pickup_trig = GetEnt("item_pickup_trig1", "targetname");

	item_pickup_trig sethintstring("Press and hold &&1 to pick up mask");

	item_pickup_trig waittill("trigger", player);
        if(!isdefined(item_model) || item_model.size <= 0)
        {
             IPrintLnBold("Item model is missing!");
             return;
        }

	item_model delete();
	item_pickup_trig delete();

	iPrintLn("Picked up Gas Mask");
}

Are you sure the model is a script_model? You might have accidentally added a misc_model and those ones aren't able to be manupilated with scripts.
