place a script area for when you should make a checkpoint, and place a PlayerStartArea where you want to spawn after you died.
.hps file:
.lang file:PHP Code:void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "ScriptAreaNameHere", "CheckpointMaker", true, 1);
}
void CheckpointMaker(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
CheckPoint ("", "PlayerStartAreaNameHere", "", "CategoryNameHere", "EntrynameHere");
}
Code:<LANGUAGE>
<CATEGORY Name="CategoryNameHere">
<Entry Name="EntryNameHere">DeathMessageHere</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>
Replace all "...NameHere" with the ones you used in the level editor/want to use.

the checkpoint command for the second checkpoint must have something wrong then. make sure it's a new playerStartArea.

All checkpoint names must be unique in order to issue multiple checkpoints.
RE: New Checkpoint problem second Checkpoint - Steve - 06-29-2012
PHP Code:
void OnEnter()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "CP", "CheckpointMaker", true, 1);
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "AreaTwo", "Two", true, 1);
} void CheckpointMaker(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
CheckPoint ("", "RA", "", "RespawnDeath", "Respawne");
} void Two(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
CheckPoint ("", "WQ", "", "Death", "Deaths");
}
The text does seem to work so I have no idea what's wrong.
does anybody might know something?
RE: New Checkpoint problem second Checkpoint - Cruzore - 06-29-2012
the first string at a checkpoint command is for the name of that checkpoint. What YC said is to difference them by their names(I myself didn't know that). And at your code you got both checkpoints called "". So change the first option at both, name it like "FirstCheckpoint" and "SecondCheckpoint" or something, whatever you want.

I think I can handle that my self, but a little example would be appreciated.
RE: New Checkpoint problem second Checkpoint - Cruzore - 06-29-2012
the third string at CheckPoint is:
asCallback - the function to call when the player dies/respawns
so, you just make a new function, let it get called when the player dies/respawns, and inside that new function make the grunt appear again and add the pathnodes.
For him appearing again, you could try using
CreateEntityAtArea(string& asEntityName, string& asEntityFile, string& asAreaName, bool abFullGameSave);
to create an enemy again. Even though they do not chase properly along Pathnodes, you could still try.
