Checkpoints

[Datguy5]

Hello people!
I have made that when an player enters a area he gets killed and then he should spawn in a jail.It needs checkpoints but how would i do it?Oh and i also want that when the player starts from the jail.And is it possible to make a short intro when the player spawns in the jail?Or does that need another map or something.

I only know the ambience sound thing.

Use this when he enters a script area:

void PlaySoundAtEntity(string& asSoundName, string& asSoundFile, string& asEntity, float afFadeTime, bool abSaveSound);


Creates a sound on an entity.
asSoundName - internal name
asSoundFile - the sound to use + extension .snt
asEntity - the entity to create the sound at, can be “Player”
afFadeTime - time in seconds the sound needs to fade
abSaveSound - determines whether a sound should “remember” its state. If true, the sound is never attached to the entity! Also note that saving should on be used on looping sounds!

Help?

ambinet sonds? as for example that a sound plays as the player his the area ? if so i know , but i'm unsure of your question. As for the jail part you could set the playing inactive and make him slowly look at a targate. As your intro and for the checkpoints i don't know :C i wish i did. But i you need help with the music script / how to do it i know exacly how.

Thanks but i solved the ambient sound thingy.And now mostly the problem is the checkpoints :/

[trollox]

Well i guess you'd have to ask someone more experienced for that. I really want to know how to creat a checkpoint aswell. Tell me if you figgure out somthing.

Checkpoints are no different than any other callback. Why do you have trouble with checkpoints when you appear to know how to set up collision and player look-at callbacks? Checkpoints get triggered when the player dies.
