Title: REspawn question?
Post by: zenman1 on 18 Aug 2005, 00:48:59

I hope this isnt already posted somewhere coulnt find it.

Im wondering if you can make a respawn for a coop mission
that updates the respawn location when you complete an
objective? I know how to do Instant respawn and respawn
to a marker.

Thanks for any input on this.

I know how to do respawn
to a marker.

Well, then all you have to do is create a game logic, name it newPosition and place it where you want the new respawn point.

Then move the marker - I will call it west_base in my example -  to the game logic using the following syntax:

"west_base" setmarkerpos getpos newPosition

EDIT: Beware the syntax, IÂ'm at work without testing oportunities. If it doesnÂ't work, try to add some brackets around (newposition).

where do i put the syntax? If I put it in the init field of gamelogic it respawns to gamelogic marker
skipping over the first respawn marker "west_base".

use the following line in a trigger "on activation field" or a script exec by a trigger (the trigger being your objective completed trigger)


"respawn_west" setmarkerpos (getpos objectname)

or

"respawn_west" setmarkerpos (getmarkerpos "markername")
