Your mentioning InteractActorsAtPosition and I just wanted to show a helper function I used for calling functions from the map module to an actor in the game module, that uses InteractActorsAtPosition. This function will spawn a special actor type at the players position and set it to solid so InteractActorsAtPosition will call it. You only want the function to be called on the actor once instead of for every solid actor in range so you need to do a condition check for that actor type at the start of your function.
and going the other way from game to map module is easy with the Game.CallDelayedMapScript function.
Here's the last of my random stuff I found out when making my last map that I don't think you have in the guide, hope it helps.

Code: [Select]
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Useful to call custom functions from the map script module to the game script module.
// Otherwise just use the ScriptObject's ScriptObject() function to get a handle to it.
//
// Required:
// Function header: void funcName(kActor @actor, const float arg1, const float arg2, const float arg3, const float arg4)
// Function body condition check: if (actor.Type() != BP_AT_FUNCTIONCALL) return;
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
void CallFunc(kActor@ actor, const kStr &in funcName, const float arg1 = 0.0f, const float arg2 = 0.0f, const float arg3 = 0.0f, const float arg4 = 0.0f)
{
kActor@ playerActor = Player.Actor().CastToActor();
kActor@ dummy = Spawn(BP_AT_FUNCTIONCALL, playerActor.Origin(), 0.0f, playerActor.SectorIndex());
dummy.Flags() |= AF_SOLID;
actor.InteractActorsAtPosition(playerActor.Origin(), funcName, arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4);
dummy.Remove();
}and going the other way from game to map module is easy with the Game.CallDelayedMapScript function.
