Thing isn't spawning with script

Fabysk · #1

So I was adding in the mystery box from another map on my WAD. The weapon cycling works perfectly, but the randomly selected weapon isn't spawning.

Code: Select all

script 56 (void)
{
 
    //random numbers
    int newRand = Random(0, 17);
    int lastRand = newRand;
    
    for(int i = 0; i<=17; i++)
    {
        //ensure the new random number isn't the same as the last
        while(newRand == lastRand)
        {
            newRand = Random(0, 17);
        }
        lastRand = newRand;
        Thing_SpawnFacing(1, randomweapon[newRand], 1, 994);
        delay(4);
        Thing_Remove(994);
    }
    
    //change the random number one last time
    while(newRand == lastRand)
    {
        newRand = Random(0, 17);
    }
    
    //show, remove, then spawn the randomly selected weapon
    Thing_SpawnFacing(1, randomweapon[newRand], 1, 994);
    delay(35);
    Thing_Remove(994);
    Thing_SpawnFacing(13, randomweapon[newRand], 0, 994); 
    
    boxActive = 0;//box no longer in progress
    acs_execute(70 ,0 ,0, 0, 0);
}

"Thing_SpawnFacing(13, randomweapon[newRand], 0, 994); " <- this has worked on other maps but not in the current one I'm working on. There is no Thing Deactivate or anything that messes with the TID (Which is 13) of the MapSpot. Script 70 is just the box closing animation, so there's no need to worry about that
