Pick up Intel

[YanYatCheng 96]

I've been trying to make a mission. and when player pick up that photo, there will be a hint pop up on the top right corner.

but don't know why, all the example scrips won't work for me.

 

can anyone help with this?

Hi

so what you got so far, what scripts you tried?

 

there's -showScriptErrors option in the launcher which is good to turn on when scripting if you haven't already.

this addAction ["pick up paper", {hint format ["please send help!", _this select 3]}];

this addAction["Pick up map", {deleteVehicle (_this select 0); player linkItem "ItemMap"; hint "I now have a map!"}];

I see nothing wrong with the second line. did you put it inside of the map object's init field?

[YanYatCheng 96]

yes, what happened after that was that pic

so when you approach the object and aim at it, there's no "pick up map" action?

[YanYatCheng 96]

there is, but what appears is that appears on that picture, no words

i can get the pick up done, but i can't get the "trigger hint" done (pop up sentence box from top right)

works for me I can see the hint message, just tested.
