Basic key Actor not working properly

[zen4040]

ACTOR SilverKey : Key 881{
	scale 0.5
	Inventory.PickupMessage "You picked up a silver key."
	Inventory.icon "SKEYA0"
	States{
		Spawn:
			SKEY A 1
			Loop
	}
}

the player doesn't take the key in inventory when picking it up from the map, only when I type "give Silverkey" in the console does the engine notice that I have it in my inventory, doing that makes everything work as if i had the key but when I pick up the key from the map instead of typing the command the script/door just acts like as if I don't have it...

Maybe my tutorial will help you.

Open the pwad (green-key_new-DiH.wad) in an editor, Slade3 or GZDB or GZDBBF, to see how I set it up.

 

If you are in doubt about how to proceed further, then the WIKI is a good place to get more information, for example

i don't know where I'm supposed to get that pwad. Can't find any link on your tutorial site. just judging from your tutorial tho I allready tried everything mentioned in it and allready read through the wiki everything about keys. even tried to install on of realm667's keys and not even those are working

Solved it on my own again, turns out SilverKey is allready a predefined actor in gzdoom.pk3. So I renamed my actor to Silver_Key and that makes it work properly again

When you move the cursor over the map image, the pointer changes from a small arrow to a hand with the index finger extended, which indicates a link. Clicking on that map image gives you the download link for the pwad.

If you refresh your browser then it should work for you.
