Soul Chest Counter For BluntStuffy\'s Soul Chest in Scripting

I made a Soul Counter for BluntStuffy's Soul Chest,
this wont run a bunch of loops like while(), for() ect. because it will only run once every time a zombie is killed near a soul chest.

Step 1

copy & paste this into an empty .gsc file
(Hint: you can make a new text document and change the .txt. extention to .gsc or simply make a copy of another gsc file and delete its contents):

Code Snippet

Plaintext

// Top Right
soul_counter_tr(death_count, max_count) {
	if( level.soul_counter_created_once == true) {
		level.soul_counter_remaining = create_simple_hud();
		level.soul_counter_remaining.horzAlign = "right";
		level.soul_counter_remaining.vertAlign = "right";
		level.soul_counter_remaining.alignX = "center";
		level.soul_counter_remaining.alignY = "top";
		level.soul_counter_remaining.y = 6;
		level.soul_counter_remaining.x = -30;
		level.soul_counter_remaining.foreground = 1;
		level.soul_counter_remaining.fontscale = 9.0;
		level.soul_counter_remaining.alpha = 1;
		level.soul_counter_remaining.color = ( 1, 1, 0 );

		level.soul_counter_souls_left = create_simple_hud();
		level.soul_counter_souls_left.horzAlign = "right";
		level.soul_counter_souls_left.vertAlign = "right";
		level.soul_counter_souls_left.alignX = "center";
		level.soul_counter_souls_left.alignY = "top";
		level.soul_counter_souls_left.y = 6;
		level.soul_counter_souls_left.x = -115;
		level.soul_counter_souls_left.foreground = 1;
		level.soul_counter_souls_left.fontscale = 9.0;
		level.soul_counter_souls_left.alpha = 1;
		level.soul_counter_souls_left.color = ( 1, 0, 0 );
		level.soul_counter_souls_left SetText("Souls Left: ");
	}


	remainingSouls =  max_count - death_count;
	level.soul_counter_remaining SetValue(remainingSouls);
   wait 0.5;

	if(level.soul_counter_finished == true) {
		thread soul_counter_destroy();
	}
}

soul_counter_destroy() {
	level.soul_counter_remaining destroy();
	level.soul_counter_souls_left destroy();
	level.soul_counter_created_once = true;
}

rename this file to soul_counter and place it in your root/mods/MAPNAME/maps

Step 2

open up your root /mods/MAPNAME/maps/_soul_chest.gsc
and inside the chest_death_count() function find:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

self thread chest_anims();

right under that paste this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

       level.soul_counter_created_once = true;
       level.soul_counter_finished = false;
       thread maps\soul_counter::soul_counter_tr(self.death_count, self.max_count);

next find:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

else if( self.death_count >= 2 && self.death_count <= self.max_count-1 )
	{

again right under that paste this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

	// continue the soul counter
	level.soul_counter_created_once = false;
	level.soul_counter_finished = false;
	thread maps\soul_counter::soul_counter_tr(self.death_count, self.max_count);

finally find:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

else if( self.death_count == self.max_count )
	{

and again right under that paste this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

       // end the soul counter
	level.soul_counter_finished = true;
	thread maps\soul_counter::soul_counter_tr(self.death_count, self.max_count);

And your done just dont forget to check it when your building your mod

I forgot 1 thing

inside your _soul_chest.gsc in your time_out() function find:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

	self notify( "time_out" );
	wait 2;
	self notify( "chest_full" );

and below that paste this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

	thread maps\soul_counter::soul_counter_destroy();

that way if the chest time out the counter wont stay on your screen

can a moderator please add this to the original post, Thank you
