Game Over Module Help [SOLVED]

So I have been tinkering with the Game Over Module in SOMA and so far it is to my liking, but I need one more thing:

When you are faced with the 'Press any button to continue...' sign when you click on it the game loads were you last saved but my mod is a rougelike and requires perma-death. Since SOMA is more moddable than Amnesia I don't want it to just say "Reload the game again!" Rather I want it so that when you click you will be loaded into the map of my choice (that being 'start.hpm').

Is there anyway I can do this?

The simplest way I see is to change the part of the GameOverHandler that loads the previous save and instead make it load a particular map. From what I can tell, the End_Timer_DeathOver function is what you want.

RE: Game Over Module Help

Until you find a better way, you can do this by forcing a ChangeMap when the player dies.

PHP Code: (Select All)
void OnPlayerKilled(int alRecentDeaths, const tString&in asSource)
{
          
Map_ChangeMap("start.hpm","PlayerStartArea_1","","");


You may want to add a delay in there with a timer to give the player time to read the death message.

Another way may be using a flag to know if the player died. Then if the OnEnter event triggers too when the player respawns, you check there the flag and change map.
