Schedules being ignored

[chrisbot6]

I'm getting this really wierd problem with some firefight code I'm writing from scratch:

Code: [Select]

function fxDTSBrick::catchFire(%brick) {
    echo(%brick SPC "caught fire");
   
    if(!%brick.isBaseplate && !%brick.burning && !%brick.burntOut) {
        %brick.setemitter(burnemittera);
        %brick.burning = true;
       
        %brick.spreadAttemptSchedule = schedule(5000, %brick, spreadFire);
        %brick.killAttemptSchedule = schedule(10000, %brick, fireKill);
    }
}

function fxDTSBrick::spreadFire(%brick) {
    echo(%brick SPC "spread fire");
   
    InitContainerRadiusSearch(%brick.gettransform(),1,$typemasks::fxbrickobjecttype);
    while((%target=containerSearchNext())!=0){
        %target.catchFire();
    }
}

function fxDTSBrick::fireKill(%brick) {
    echo(%brick SPC "burned out");
   
    if(!%brick.willCauseChainKill()) {
        %brick.dissapear(-1);
       
        %brick.putOut();
        %brick.burntOut = true;
    } else {
        cancel(%brick.spreadAttemptSchedule); // if spread time is longer than kill time
       
        %brick.spreadAttemptSchedule = schedule(5000, %brick, spreadFire);
        %brick.killAttemptSchedule = schedule(10000, %brick, fireKill);
       
        %brick.setFireSchedules();
    }
}

function fxDTSBrick::putOut(%brick) {
    %brick.setemitter(0);
    %brick.burning = false;
   
    cancel(%brick.spreadAttemptSchedule);
    cancel(%brick.killAttemptSchedule);
}

function lighterProjectile::onCollision(%this,%obj,%col,%fade,%pos,%normal)
{
    %col.catchFire();
}

function FireHoseProjectile::onCollision(%this,%obj,%col,%fade,%pos,%normal)
{
    %col.putOut();
}
The bug is that the schedules in catchFire(); never seem to work. I light a brick on fire, and it just burns forever without any spreading or burning out. Manually calling spreadFire(); on bricks works fine, as does fireKill();. Does anyone have any idea what's wrong? Note that it also does it if I change the schedule calls to %brick.schedule or try using scheduleNoQuota.

        %brick.spreadAttemptSchedule = %brick.schedule(5000, spreadFire);
        %brick.killAttemptSchedule = %brick.schedule(10000, fireKill);

        %brick.spreadAttemptSchedule = %brick.schedule(5000, spreadFire);
        %brick.killAttemptSchedule = %brick.schedule(10000, fireKill);

Okay, that worked. Thanks.
