Godric's Hollow, open the map with an archiver, and you'll see those very folders inside: "Maps/SingleMissions/...". And then, depending on where you place the file, that's the path you should write in the script.

Regarding the MessageBox function, I've mostly figured it out, but I still have one question: why, when I save a text file in the Maps folder, it has the correct path, but as soon as I insert it into the map archive, the text message in Notepad immediately moves to drive C? Although, if the file is outside the archive, everything is normal, and I've set the Unicode encoding in Notepad. However, in the properties, it says that the archive itself is in the Maps folder, meaning everything should be normal. I've been struggling with this for three evenings now. :smile45:

as soon as I insert a text message into the map archive using Notepad, it immediately gets moved to drive C?

When you edit a file within an archive, the archiver unpacks it to a temporary folder on drive C:, and then, upon closing the file, it repacks it. This is standard behavior.

Help: I wrote a script: ``` function SetBuildFunc() SetObjectEnabled(obelisk1, nil); MessageBox("/Maps/SingleMissions/Revenge of the/sob3.txt") end Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER, "obelisk1", "SetBuildFunc"); ``` The idea is that when approaching the obelisk, only a message should appear, and the map where the tear is located should not open. Help, I don't know what's wrong. And yes, I know this was in the FAQ, but it wasn't very clear to me:smile50:.

you turned off the obelisk completely.

Yeah, I guess so.

Help, I wrote a script, and it seems to be correct:
SetRegionBlocked("Block1", true, 2);
function Blockers()
PlayObjectAnimation("BlockCap", "happy", ONESHOT);
sleep(10);
PlayObjectAnimation("Blockus1", "attack00", ONESHOT);
sleep(5);
RazeBuilding("Blocker1");
PlayObjectAnimation("Blockus2", "attack00", ONESHOT);
sleep(5);
RazeBuilding("Blocker2");
sleep(5);
RemoveObject("BlockCap");
RemoveObject("Blockus1");
RemoveObject("Blockus2");
sleep(3);
SetObjectPosition("Maeve", 30, 34, -1);
Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, "Blocking", nil);
end
Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, "Blocking", "Blockers");
function EndRain()
SetAmbientLight(1, "Lights\_(AmbientLight)\AdvMap\C1M1xdb#xpointer(AmbientLight)", true, 10);
end
Trigger(NEW_DAY_TRIGGER, 2);
But the console says I have an error:
(Script) ERROR: expected;
last token read `2' at line 1 in string "parse"
I don't understand what the error is, but it seems to be correct :mad:
It's like it was expecting a semicolon; the last character read was in that line.

Well, yeah.

I either needed to use a script to open the map, turn off the obelisk afterward, or not turn it off at all

A semicolon is also needed after "end".

Trigger(NEW_DAY_TRIGGER, 2);
But the console says I have an error.
(Script) ERROR: expected;
last token read `2' at line 1 in string "parse"

In a free translation, the last line means:
"The last thing I managed to read before the crash was the number 2."
And the reason is slightly higher, because the new day trigger expects a string with the function name as the second parameter, but you have a number 2 there.

A semicolon is not required, especially after “end”.

In a free translation, the last line means:
"the last thing I managed to read before the crash was the number 2."
And the reason is slightly above, that the trigger for the new day expects the second parameter to be a string with the function name, and you have a number 2 there.

Thank you, although I figured it out myself. I watched the Remix video, and instead of 1 0, where GrounLevel should be, there is

Help, I've rewritten the script almost 10 times.
function EndRain()
if GetDate(3) ==2 then
print("OK");
SetAmbientLight(GROUND, 'Default');
print("OK2");
end
end
Trigger(NEW_DAY_TRIGGER, "EndRain");
everything works fine, but the command
SetAmbientLight(GROUND, 'Default');
the game doesn't want to execute, but the command print("OK2")
works perfectly.
I tried to use the FAQ, but it didn't help.
can you at least provide an example script?

I encountered a strange problem, and it really scared me: the map simply doesn't open in the game, i.e., it doesn't load. It runs for about 5 seconds and then kicks me back to the scenario list. How can I fix this?

That happens. There’s an issue with the map. But it would be better if you described what kind of map it is.

Am I correct in understanding that the obelisk cannot be disabled? Here's the script:
function Sleza()
SetObjectEnabled("obel1", nil)
Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER, "obel1", "Sleza")
StartCombat("Godric", nil, 4, 85, 30, 85, 20, 85, 40, 85, 35)
Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER, "obel1", nil)
sleep(8)
PlayVisualEffect( "/Effects/_(Effect)/Spells/FireballHitEffect.xdb#xpointer(/Effect)", "obel1", "tag2")
sleep(5)
MessageBox("Maps/SingleMissions/Revenge of the/raki.txt")
end
Trigger(OBJECT_TOUCH_TRIGGER, "obel1", "Sleza")
The obelisk functions normally; when triggered, a section of the map activates, followed by a battle, and then the script continues. Unfortunately, it also cannot be removed from the map. The function is working; a similar function is used in Utopia, but it only triggers a scripted battle.

If anyone knows how to disable it, please let me know. I suspect it's different from other objects.

I'm going to ask a silly question: how do you make it bright in the Dungeon?
