Trigger error now... help?

[chubaka452]

Could anyone perhaps explain or have a link on how triggers work?

I know so little, I would like a better understanding for triggers and how they work...

Thanks for reading

function someTriggerData::onEnterTrigger(%this, %trigger, %obj)

function someTriggerData::onLeaveTrigger(%this, %trigger, %obj)
{
//stuff
}
function someTriggerData::onTickTrigger(%this, %trigger, %obj)
{
//stuff
}
new trigger(theActualTrigger)
{
position = "0 0 0";
rotation = "1 0 0 0";
scale = "1 1 1";
datablock = someTriggerData;
polyhedron = "0.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000 1.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000 -1.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000 1.0000000";

well it didnt really explain what they are.. or what they're used for(concept), but ty for trying

[Swollow]

triggers are like an invisible box that when a player or object enters or leave it causes some sort of function to occur depending on what you want it to do

Wow. What a jerk : /
If we know what you need them for, we can better explain it or tell you to use something else, if it would better suit your needs.

[Subpixel]

Aight then, we can't explain stuff to you without knowing what the hell you're doing.
