I made a volume location in sapien for a small so im making just to test out some scripts and i want it so i can have the stuff happen only when they havnt done somthing else first... would i like make it so if they say killed an encounter make it sleep_until then and then have the rest of the script activate? please help!

a sleep until ai living count 0, hs_doc is your friend.

(sleep_until (>= 0 (something_about_ai_health theEncounter))) << something like that
(sleep_until (= true (volume_test_object aTrigVol (list_get (players) 0))))

wait until the encounter is killed
then, wait for player to enter the volume

you guys arnt truley getting my question... i want to be able to completly DISABLE the volume then when i want it in the l8er IF i want it i can type a comand if there is a such thing and create it... but i think there is no such command.

trigger volumes are never actually active. They are merely x,y,z, width, length, height, and rotation, another 3 variables. 9 variables? anyway,
They only seem active when used by a script
The script lines which refer to the trigger volume could be made 'inactive', with a sleep command, or an if command that skips it if needed.

ok lets just see what you make of this:

this is what i want to happen: say your in a sp and you arnt supose to go somewhere and i want them to die if they walk there... but stop doing that after they say beat an ai encounter... i know how to do everything except make it so it doesn't kill them after they beat those encounters... i think that should explain it.

(sleep_until (= true (volume_test_objects theVolume (players) ))) ; wait for player to enter volume
(if (> 0 (ai_living_count theEncounter)) ; if 0 > living count
   <kill player however you will>
)
...else, the script goes on...

you could probably do it other ways, but I think that would do it

that doesn't account for resetting the script and starting over. I never got into sp scripting, so i dunno
