Hello, sorry to for more questions.

But how to make collision detector? I would like when player walk to non accessible room, the camera (player) collision to cube then say something?

And by the way, how to make a cube invisible?

Thank you for your time reading this.

Not really sure what you're asking on the collisions part - is it that you just don't know how to make collisions work at all?

As for making a cube invisible; EntityAlpha cube,0 if you want collisions to still be performed on it, or HideEntity cube if you don't.

I have collision working just fine;

type_camera = 2
type_barrier = 5

camera = CreateCamera()
CameraClsColor camera,0,0,0
PositionEntity camera,0,2.0,0 
CameraFogRange camera,1,30
EntityType camera,type_camera
EntityRadius camera,2,1.2
EntityPickMode camera,1 

barrier = CreateCube()
PositionEntity barrier,-6.5,1,-2
EntityType barrier,type_barrier
EntityRadius barrier,1

Collisions type_camera,type_barrier,1,5

But how to make a collision detector when camera hit cube and say "I am not suppose be here" etc.

Use the entitycollided command....

example..

if entitycollided(entity(moving),entitytype(in this case the barrier))
then playsound or print text

I've tried but it appear "Expecting 'Wend'"

What is missing or wrong here?

EntityCollided(entity(camera),EntityType(barrier)=1 Then Text 800,800,("I am not suppose be going here."),1,1

it should be

If EntityCollided(camera,type_barrier) Then Text 800,800,("I am not suppose be going here."),1,1
