Starbase Hinta

I am at a loss here.

Why would this code not work? Activation button is named SweepHorizon, 5 turret bases are all named SweepHorizon1 and below is the code I am using.

@ loop (there is no space here but apparently someone's name is loop)

if SweepHorizon == 1 then

write("SweepHorizon1_rotation", 20)

wait 1000

write("SweepHorizon1_rotation", 0)

wait 1000

write("SweepHorizon1_rotation", -20)

wait 1000

else

write("SweepHorizon1_rotation", 0)

end

goto loop

​

Now if I simply this code to something like

if :SweepHorizon then goto2 else goto10 end

:SweepHorizon1=15 :SweepHorizon1=-20

:SweepHorizon1=15 :SweepHorizon1=-20

:SweepHorizon1=15 :SweepHorizon1=-20

goto1

The turrets will "rotate from side to side

(adding a wait line inbetween)

I am trying to use the first code so there is no break in-between and is a fluid motion rather than duplicated the 2nd code over and over and having a delay in last line.
