If by now you have made the textures single user as well the glow should be working. So let's continue with the SDL for the cloths.
Since you probably want to do as little Python programming as possible we'll start with an existing global Python file: xAgeSDLBoolSet. You can simply call this Python file from your AlcScript to make it do its thing.
First you need SDL variables, as many as there are cloths in your age. Assuming you have 7 cloths, your SDL file should look something like this:
- Code: Select all
STATEDESC TurtleIsle
{
VAR BOOL trtlCloth1[1] DEFAULT=0
VAR BOOL trtlCloth2[1] DEFAULT=0
VAR BOOL trtlCloth3[1] DEFAULT=0
VAR BOOL trtlCloth4[1] DEFAULT=0
VAR BOOL trtlCloth5[1] DEFAULT=0
VAR BOOL trtlCloth6[1] DEFAULT=0
VAR BOOL trtlCloth7[1] DEFAULT=0
}
I don't know if your age name is really TurtleIsle, so change that if necessary.
In order to mark the cloths as touched you can change the AlcScript for the Cloth1 object as follows:
- Code: Select all
Cloth1:
visual:
matanims:
- mat: Journey.001
flags:
- stopped
logic:
modifiers:
- name: Cloth1Clk
cursor: poised

curstate: 0
flags:

- type: pythonfile

pythonfile:

- type: activator
ref: logicmod:Cloth1Clk
- type: string
value: trtlCloth1
- type: skip
- type: skip
- type: skip
- type: skip
- type: int
value: 1
- type: string
value: trtlCloth1
As you can see I have already named your glow texture Glow.001 which is the name it should have gotten when you made it single user. The important parameter is the "type: int". This tells Uru to set SDL trtlCloth1 to value 1. This is NOT a toggle. So if the cloth is clicked twice the SDL value will still be 1.
Next do this for each of your cloths.
OK. That was the easy part. Now you need to tell the door to open only when all cloths are pressed. For this you need to edit the AlcScript of the objects DoorButton, DoorButton.001 and Door1 as follows:
- Code: Select all
DoorButton:
logic:
modifiers:
- name: DoorButtonClk
cursor: poised
flags:
- localelement
activators:

remote: DoorButtonRgn

The bad news is that you need a custom made Python file for this, which I called trtlDoor.py. The good news is that I already made it.
Here is the code:
- Code: Select all

actDoorButton = ptAttribActivator(1, 'Act: DoorButton')
actDoorButton1 = ptAttribActivator(2, 'Act: DoorButton.001')

respDoorOpen = ptAttribResponder(4, 'Resp: DoorOpen')
respDoorOpen1 = ptAttribResponder(5, 'Resp: DoorOpen.001')
respDoorStuck = ptAttribResponder(6, 'Resp: DoorStuck')
respDoorStuck1 = ptAttribResponder(7, 'Resp: DoorStuck.001')
boolFirstUpdate = ptAttribBoolean(8, 'Process On First Update?', 0)
class trtlDoor1(ptModifier,):
def __init__(self):
ptModifier.__init__(self)
self.version = 1

If you haven't worked with SDL states and Python before I suggest you read what Andy posted
in this topic about the "Dummy" python file.
