I cannot for the life of me figure out how to use this function. I have the following code:

if ( IsPlayerMovingIntoNewSpace == 1 )
  set variable to 1
elseif ( variable == 1 )
  ;do stuff
endif

As far as I can tell, that should do something upon the load of a new cell - but as far as I can tell, it's not working... WTF? --DragoonWraith 22:17, 22 May 2006 (EDT)

I wonder if it isn't a Condition function (only available in AI Conditionals) --Tegid 22:31, 22 May 2006 (EDT)
The article would imply that... damn, how the hell are we supposed to know if the player has gone into a new cell?! --DragoonWraith 00:32, 23 May 2006 (EDT)
