This is because there is no player variable defined.
Change the entire script to this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

function init()
{
	level.shootablesNeeded = 2;
	level.shootablesCollected = 0;

	level thread shootable_1();
	level thread shootable_2();
}

function shootable_1()
{
    trig_1 = GetEnt("shootable_trig", "targetname");
	model_1 = GetEnt("shootable_model", "targetname");

	trig_1 SetHintString("");
	trig_1 SetCursorHint("HINT_NOICON");

	while(1)
	{
		trig_1 waittill("trigger", player);

		level.shootablesCollected++;

		IPrintLn("Trigger 1 Shot"); // Not Needed

		thread shootables_done(player);

		break;
	}

	trig_1 Delete();
	model_1 Delete();
}

function shootable_2()
{
	trig_2 = GetEnt("shootable_trig_2", "targetname");
	model_2 = GetEnt("shootable_model_2", "targetname");

	trig_2 SetHintString("");
	trig_2 SetCursorHint("HINT_NOICON");

	while(1)
	{
		trig_2 waittill("trigger", player);

		level.shootablesCollected++;

		IPrintLn("Trigger 2 Shot"); // Not Needed

		thread shootables_done(player);

		break;
	}

	trig_2 Delete();
	model_2 Delete();
}

function shootables_done(player)
{
	while(1)
	{
		self waittill(level.shootablesCollected >= level.shootablesNeeded);

		if(level.shootablesCollected == level.shootablesNeeded)
		{
			// What ever code you want to execute once all shootables are collected
			IPrintLn("All Shootables Collected");
		}

		break;
	}
}

Thanks for sharing your script with anyone who might not know how to do this, if anyone wants to change the perk all names are located in _zm_perks.gsh

Make sure you actually have the perks enabled on your map. By default electric cherry and widows wine are not enabled.

To add them go into root/usermaps/zm_mapname/scripts/zm/zm_mapname.gsc and add this to the top of the file:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

#using scripts\zm\_zm_perk_widows_wine;
#using scripts\zm\_zm_perk_electric_cherry;

Do the same thing inside root/usermaps/zm_mapname/scripts/zm/zm_mapname.csc

*Note - Make sure you are using the script that TheKillerey made above since it has access to the player variable*

Replace player zm_perks::give_perk( PERK_ELECTRIC_CHERRY, false ); with this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

weapon = GetWeapon("zod_riotshield");
player GiveWeapon(weapon);

I'm not sure if this is the right way to do it since it acts as a equipment not a weapon but it should work since it is in the weapons table. Please let me know if anything doesn't work and Ill figure out the right way.

Reply #42 on: October 14, 2016, 07:12:58 pm

it works with raygun but not zombie shield probably because its a equipment

You could try this.

Add this to your includes:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

#using scripts/zm/_zm_equipment;

then add this inside shootable_done under IPrintLn:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

equipment = GetWeapon("zod_riotshield");
player zm_equipment::give(equipment);

This should work, if it doesn't you or someone else will need to figure it out since I can't find another way inside the equipment file.

Thanks man that worked ill give you some credit in my map description once its updated!

The script works but after testing it on multiplayer it gives the shield to only 1 player and not all players. Is theirs a way to script it to all players or all 4?
