Requirement notice: The stock power switch IS REQUIRED for this to work properly. Bad things might happen if you don't add it. It doesn't matter where you put the switch, just make sure its in the map!

Custom perk notice: It is possible to add your own custom perk switches using this script, however i'm not going to explain how to do it in this tutorial.

How to add it to YOUR map

1. copy the IWD to your root/mods folder

2. Open mapname.gsc(mapname is the name of your map). Add this:

thread maps\_zombiemode_power::main();

under:

	/*--------------------
	 FUNCTION CALLS - POST _Load
	----------------------*/

3. Add the provided prefabs into your map.

4. recompile your map and your IWD.

5. You should now have fully working perk specific power switches. DONE!

If you would like to add custom perks then feel free to modify the script in the IWD.

Nice tutorial! +1

Nice.

If i still use the power switch to power on lights will that effect the perk power switches

Nice.

Activating any of the power switches should do that. Activating the stock one will turn the perks on like normal.

If i was to use ur script for perk power switches how would i add the other perks and also the ability to turn on the lights? So i dont have to use stock power switch which would override the perk switches

I've never used electric lights before, but i assume they are activated using:

flag_set( "electricity_on" );

which the script has. As soon as you activate any of the switches your lights -should- turn on.

As for custom perks, open up the script file and add:

	PERKHERE_power = getent("PERKHERE_power","targetname");
	PERKHERE_lever = getent(PERHERE_power.target,"targetname");

*PERHERE can be anything as long as its case(below)

Then in the same function(main) add

	if(isdefined(PERKHERE_power) && isdefined(PERKHERE_lever) )
	{
		level thread power_init(PERKHERE_power, PERKHERE_lever, "Press F to activate PERKHERE");
	}

Now below in the power_init() function, add your new perk to the case like:

		case "PERKHERE_power":
			level notify( "PERK_NOTIFY" );
			break;

Make sure EVERYTHING looks like it does in the script.

EDIT: For radiant stamp one of the prefabs and change the KVP's to the targetname. Make sure the trigger is linked to the lever.

Hey daedra.

Do you know of any way to stop the perk power switches from turning on any light_electic scripted primary lights i have in my map and to set up a seperate power switch for them?

Thanks.
