Shootable EE Problem in Scripting

function moneyteddy() { trigger = GetEnt("money_ted","targetname"); trigger SetHintString(""); trigger SetCursorHint("HINT_NOICON"); teddyModel = GetEnt("ted_model","targetname"); MoneyGiven = 1000; while(1) { trigger waittill("trigger",player); player zm_score::add_to_player_score(MoneyGiven); player playLocalSound("zmb_cha_ching"); trigger delete(); teddyModel hide(); } }

So i have a little shootable easter egg teddy on my map. I can shoot it, and everything works. But the model will not delete. Please tell me what im doing wrong (the script isn't very good since im new to scripting).
Code Snippet
Plaintext
function moneyteddy()
{
	trigger = GetEnt("money_ted","targetname");
	trigger SetHintString("");
	trigger SetCursorHint("HINT_NOICON");
	teddyModel = GetEnt("ted_model","targetname");
	MoneyGiven = 1000;
 
	while(1)
	{
		trigger waittill("trigger",player);
		player zm_score::add_to_player_score(MoneyGiven);
		player playLocalSound("zmb_cha_ching");
		trigger delete();
		teddyModel hide();

	}

}
I have also tried teddyModel delete();

When making shootable's you should make the trigger or the model the target of the other. For instance, if you delete the targetname of the teddy, and deselect it. Then select the trigger, and then select the teddy again, and then press w, it will setup a auto#.

This will prevent you from having multiple entities with the same kvp, which is possibly what is happening here, or you have a typo, or your teddy isn't a script_model. You then would modify your script as such:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

function moneyteddy()
{
	trigger = GetEnt("money_ted","targetname");
	trigger SetHintString("");
	trigger SetCursorHint("HINT_NOICON");
	MoneyGiven = 1000;
 
	trigger waittill("trigger",player);
	player zm_score::add_to_player_score(MoneyGiven);
	player playLocalSound("zmb_cha_ching");
	teddyModel = GetEnt(trigger.target,"targetname");
	trigger delete();
	teddyModel delete();
}

If there will only be one teddy, then this is fine, but if multiple teddies were to be used, I would start modifying this script like this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

function moneyteddy()
{
	triggers = GetEnt("money_ted","targetname"); 
	array::thread_all(triggers, &MoneyTeddyGive);
}
function MoneyTeddyGive(){
	self SetHintString("");
	self SetCursorHint("HINT_NOICON");
	MoneyGiven = 1000;
 
	while(1){
		self waittill("trigger",player);
		if(IsPlayer(player)){
			player zm_score::add_to_player_score(MoneyGiven);
			player playLocalSound("zmb_cha_ching");
			break;
		}
	}
	teddyModel = GetEnt(self.target,"targetname");
	teddyModel delete();
	self delete();
}

On a side note, you say your making a shootable ee, but your setting up a hintstring?
