Member Function Documentation

Input()

void trigger_once::Input ( entity  eAct, string  strInput, string  strData  )

virtual

Called when we are being prompted by another object/function with an input message.

Reimplemented from NSEntity.

Respawn()

void trigger_once::Respawn ( void  )

virtual

Server: Called when the entity first spawns or when game-logic requests the entity to return to its original spawn state.

Reimplemented from NSEntity.

Restore()

void trigger_once::Restore ( string  strKey, string  strValue  )

virtual

Similar to ::SpawnKey but for save-game fields.

Whatever you write into file handles within your ::Save() method needs to be read back in here.

Reimplemented from NSEntity.

Save()

void trigger_once::Save ( float  handle )

virtual

Handles saving a copy of this entity to a given filehandle.

Within you want to use the ::SaveFloat() etc. methods to write the internal member attributes to the specified file handle.

Reimplemented from NSEntity.

Spawned()

void trigger_once::Spawned ( void  )

virtual

Called when the entity is fulled initialized.

Any spawn key/value info pairs have already been dealt with. So now we can make full decisions on the entity. Always make sure to call super::Spawned(); inside your method when overriding.

Reimplemented from NSEntity.

SpawnKey()

void trigger_once::SpawnKey ( string  strKey, string  strValue  )

virtual

This method handles entity key/value pairs on map load.

You can easily convert the strValue parameter using the ReadFloat etc. methods that are part of NSIO.

Reimplemented from NSEntity.

Touch()

void trigger_once::Touch ( entity  eToucher )

virtual

Called whenever we're touching another entity.

Reimplemented from NSTrigger.
