This question is probably answered in these forums once every week. You can also check out how Frictional Games did it in the chancel/prison map.

You can set the player's health to 0 by using:
void SetPlayerHealth(float afHealth);

You can set up a checkpoint that calls a function when you die. Put in a mapchange into that function.

void CheckPoint (string& asName, string& asStartPos, string&asCallback, string& asDeathHintCat, string& asDeathHintEntry);

Sets a checkpoint at which the player will respawn in case he dies.
Callback syntax: void MyFunc(string &in asName, int alCount)
Count is 0 on the first checkpoint load!

asName - the internal name
asStartPos - the name of the StartPos in the editor
asCallback - the function to call when the player dies/respawns
asDeathHintCat - the category of the death hint message to be used in the .lang file
asDeathHintEntry - the entry in the .lang file

AND

void ChangeMap(string& asMapName, string& asStartPos, string& asStartSound, string& asEndSound);

Immediatly loads another map.

asMapName - the file to load
asStartPos - the name of the StartPos on the next map
asStartSound - the sound that is played when the change starts
asEndSound - the sound that is played when the new map is loaded

I can come up with three more possible ways to script this, but using checkpoints is probably the best way.

Well, it's the script you have to use.

whats the callback i should use?

whats the callback i should use?

.
Callback syntax for checkpoints: void MyFunc(string &in asName, int alCount)
So you'll have to put your ChangeMap(string& asMapName, string& asStartPos, string& asStartSound, string& asEndSound); into MyFunc.

So the Changemap is the callback ? getting confused ?

MyFunc or whatever you are going to call it is the callback. That function should call the ChangeMap.
.
void CheckPoint (string& asName, string& asStartPos, string&asCallback, string& asDeathHintCat, string& asDeathHintEntry);

asCallback - the function to call when the player dies/respawns

So, when you die, a function will be called, lets call it MyFunc.

That function has the callback syntax (string &in asName, int alCount)

void MyFunc(string &in asName, int alCount)
{
// Put everything here that you want to happen after death
ChangeMap(string& asMapName, string& asStartPos, string& asStartSound, string& asEndSound);
}

okey i got the changemap now but Daniel start looking in the ground and he donst stop any clue?
