collision controled crash

integer crashed;

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        crashed = FALSE;
    }
    link_message(integer from, integer int, string message, key id)
    {
        if(message = "start")
        {
            crashed = TRUE;
        }
        else if(message = "stop")
        {
            crashed = FALSE;
        }
    }
    collision(integer num)
    {
        if(crashed == FALSE)
        {
            llSay(0,"no crash");
        }
        else if(crashed == TRUE)
        {
            llSay(0,"crashed");
        }
    }
}

it somewhat works, what it is saposed to do is, if the integer is set to true anytime something hits that prim it will say crash and when the integer is set to false it will say no crash, it is controled by a message from another script i have integer starts out as false i hit the prim it says no crash, i get it set to true it says crashed like it should but for some reason it refuses to go back to false and keeps saying crashed, any idea what is wrong?

Regardless of anything else that may be happening, Mrc, it appears that the same comparison problem that Stephen pointed out in your earlier thread has creeped in here too.

if(message = "start"
else if(message = "stop"

Perhaps that is the source of the prob

To avoid such comparison problems I suggest to do the comparison the other way round...

if ("whatever" == Message)

Because you cannot assign a value to a string but can to a variable.

So

if ("whatever" = Message)

WILL give you an error when you try to compile it.

it worked

damit lol, i swear lsl hates me
