Combination Entry (using non-alphanumeric characters)

[atlantiantokra]

Can anybody help me please? i need a script that for a stargate style teleport system. basically you enter a 7 digit password made using around 40 symbols and a portal is created that teleports people to another place when they step through the portal, the place depends upon the combination of symbols used. the script should allow a password entry using non-alphanumeric characters with multiple correct combinations with the teleport location being different for each correct one (preferably setup so that events can limit the number of locations, e.g to destroy portals or to prevent crossing onto a sererate world map). the password entered must use the maximum number of characters available (i.e an error in the password entry rather than an incorrect one). and i would like a way to have an item that automatically creates a portal to a pre-programmed destination without telling the player that combination

also if it is possible i would like it to have a way to have a database of combinations that the player knows or has learnt so that the database can be accessed through an event or the selection screen where selecting an entry automatically inputs the combination. the database should include a description of the location, the combination, a marker (for favourites, new and inactive/blocked)  and a quicklist of favorite and new locations

I need a little more information here, for instance:

- What exactly will be the symbols used?  It may appear easier to just use letters and numbers, as they are easier to understand and write down.
- The way I understand your request, the flow can be as follows:
1. Player steps on portal
2. Portal asks for combination
3. Player enters combination
4. Is combination correct?
YES - Take player to location according to password entered.
NO - Go to step 2
Or perhaps the event creates the portal instead of taking the player to the appropriate location immediately.  Please tell me which scenario is correct.

the event creates the portal

and it does really need to be symbols. although that's why i want a database, so the player doesn't have to write them down
