random_trigger Class Reference

About this class

Server-Entity: Trigger With Random Intervals.

QUAKED random_trigger (1 0 0) (-8 -8 -8) (8 8 8)

OVERVIEW

When triggered, it'll calculate some random interval until it triggers its targets, based on some limits given.

KEYS

• "targetname" : Name
• "target" : Target when triggered
• "killtarget" : Target to kill when triggered
• "start_state" : Start state (either 0 or 1)
• "wait" : Minimum time
• "random_min" : Minimum added random time
• "random_max" : Maximum added random time

TRIVIA

It was introduced in Gunman Chronicles (2000).

Inheritance diagram for random_trigger:

Public Member Functions
void	random_trigger (void)
virtual void	Save (float)
	Handles saving a copy of this entity to a given filehandle.
virtual void	Restore (string, string)
	Similar to ncIO::SpawnKey() but for save-game fields.
virtual void	SpawnKey (string, string)
	This method handles entity key/value pairs on map load.
virtual void	Respawn (void)
	Server: Called when the entity first spawns or when game-logic requests the entity to return to its original spawn state.
virtual void	Trigger (entity, triggermode_t)
	Called whenever we're legacy triggered by another object or function.

Member Function Documentation

Respawn()

void random_trigger::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 ncPointTrigger.

Restore()

void random_trigger::Restore ( string keyName, string setValue )

virtual

Similar to ncIO::SpawnKey() but for save-game fields.

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

Reimplemented from ncEntity.

Save()

void random_trigger::Save ( float handle )

virtual

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

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

Reimplemented from ncEntity.

SpawnKey()

void random_trigger::SpawnKey ( string keyName, string setValue )

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 ncIO.

Reimplemented from ncEntity.

Trigger()

void random_trigger::Trigger ( entity act, triggermode_t state )

virtual

Called whenever we're legacy triggered by another object or function.

Reimplemented from ncTrigger.
