Destroying a single type of item

[gundamwing84]

Hey guys, sorry for being a bother so soon

right now im doing some custom scripting for my housing system in game, and ive got a function that recognizes "i wish to place a trash barrel" and locks it down, and i want a function that recognizes the speech "i wish to destroy a trash barrel".

i created the script a couple days ago, and its compiles fine and what not. the problem is destroying the actual item, here is the script:

Code: Select all

function DestroyTrashBarrel(parms)
	var sign := parms[1];
	var owner := parms[2];
	var trashbarrel := 0x17057;


	var homeinfo := GetObjProperty (sign, "homeinfo");
	if (!homeinfo)
		return;
	endif
	
	
	if (IsInsidetheHouse(owner, sign));
		var targ := Target(owner);
		if (targ)
			if (targ.item == trashbarrel)
				SendSysMessage(owner, "passed the second if.", font := _DEFAULT_TEXT_FONT, color := MESSAGE_COLOR_MESSAGE);
				DestroyItem(item);
			else
				SendSysMessage(owner, "You can only destroy trash barrels...", font := _DEFAULT_TEXT_FONT, color := MESSAGE_COLOR_MESSAGE);
			endif
		elseif (!targ)
			SendSysMessage(owner, "Canceled.", font := _DEFAULT_TEXT_FONT, color := MESSAGE_COLOR_MESSAGE);
			return;
		endif
	elseif (!IsInsidetheHouse(owner, sign));
		SendSysMessage(owner, "You must be inside your home to use this command!", font := _DEFAULT_TEXT_FONT, color := MESSAGE_COLOR_MESSAGE);
		return;
	endif
endfunction

it needs to only be able to destroy a trash barrel (so they cant go on a rampage and destroy other items or destroy other items accidently) but the script will continue from "if (targ.item == trashbarrel)" even if i target the house sign. the second problem is it wont actually destroy the trash barrel other then that its working fine, does anyone have an idea as to why these errors are happening?

thanks in advance, mat

You could also have the "I wish to release this" command release it which would allow the player to move it or let it decay. That would simplify things a bit because you wouldn't need a separate command just for trash barrels.

yeah they already have all the standard commands (i wish to lock this down/release, secure, etc), im using Agata's 99 WOD script package she released as a base for my shard

thanks though yukiko
