Elevator Script wierd result

[Floatsup]

I stripped out all the companion stuff to make this real easy to read, and saved it, so this part has an issue.

 

I have 3 floors that use this script. As a matter of fact its the same door, I don't think its a problem cause 2 out of the 3 floors work just fine. The last floor bottom doesnt work exactly right.

 

heres the script if someone could take a look at it.

 

scn FLBARElevatorDoorScript 

short levelselect 
short elevactive 
;short distillkey                 ;Not used yet

Begin OnActivate 

       showmessage FLBARelvselect 
       set elevactive to 1 

End 


Begin gamemode 

       if elevactive == 1 

               Set elevactive to 0 
               Set levelselect to GetButtonPressed 
	if levelselect == 0                       ; Do Nothing
                     	Elseif  levelselect == 1
	player.MoveTo FLBARelMarkerBarPlayer

				
	Elseif levelselect == 2
	player.MoveTo FLBARelMarkerBottlePlayer


	Elseif levelselect == 3
	player.MoveTo FLBARelMarkerBottomPlayer
	Endif	
				

Endif


End

 

What happens is the first 2 selctions work with no problem able to access flors 2 and 3

From floor 2, I can either go up to 1 or down to 3

 

From the third floor though, I can only go to floor 1. No menu item for the second floor.

 

Anyway see somethng I missed?

This isn't because of your script. (Please use [ code ] and [ /code ] next time to increase readability). It's because of the conditions in your message box. The message box has its own conditions, and if those fail, then the buttons do not appear.

I deleted it, and recreated the message file. Im not positive cause I didnt design this game, but because my bottom layer is almost the same name initially I think thats screwing it up. For the second floor its named FloatsDistillery, for the failing its named FloatsDistilleryBottom. Cell reference is checked out. So im at a loss. Just like Im at a total loss why my companions decided to walk into the bar area. For the first time. Ever. ANd I didnt change a damn thing. So I'm just gonna chock this up to learning curve, because I dont have access to the source code, and honestly its not a show stopper. Fustrating, but the show will go on.

That is the problem. Please note the description of getincell from the geck wiki:

Example

Player.GetInCell Megaton

Returns a 1 if the player is in a cell that begins with "Megaton" and 0 otherwise. So this would return a 1 if the player was in MegatonPlayerHouse, MegatonCratersideSupply, etc...

So "getincell FloatsDistillery" is matching both floors.
