Title: #3 Debriefing will not work?
Post by: BuhBye on 11 Oct 2007, 23:17:19
I have no idea whats up here but #3 will not work. Ive tried setting it to #4, remaking it copy and paste #2 and naming it #3. Nothing makes it display beyond #2...??

The trigger is right (Very little you can do wrong).


Code: [Select]
<! ****************************************** >
<! **** Debriefing >
<! ****************************************** >

<! **** End #1 **** >
<hr><br><h2><p><a name = "Debriefing:End1">
Mission Complete!
</a></p></h2><br><p>
Well done! The loss of this armor will be felt hard by the SLA.
</p><br>

<! **** End #2 **** >
<hr><br><h2><p><a name = "Debriefing:End2">
Mission Failed!
</a></p></h2><br><p>
The convoy has gotten through. They will be a problem on the frontlines.
</p><br>

<! **** End #3 **** >
<hr><br><h2><p><a name = "Debriefing:End3">
Mission Failed!
</a></p></h2><br><p>
Your Team is Dead. Next time Ill send my 2 daughters!
</p><br>

Hmm, weird. There's nothing wrong with the description.ext file. Did you edit it while editing that mission in the editor? You need to go off the mission editor and then go back and reload the mission, so it loads the updated description.ext file.

Demo mission added.

Seems to work for me, use the radio to trigger the different ends.

Mission is fine, like I said 1 and 2 work but not 3. Every thing works fine except the text in the debrief doesn't show.

In tiny demo mission I set up, your code for debriefing #3 seems to work  ::)

I have no idea whats up. May be its my issue. If anyone wants to load the mission and try it, you can get it below. Let me know if it works. Its the west dead that isnt displaying the text. IE all west soldiers are dead and mission ends but no de-brief text.

I suspect that your problem is that at the moment when the last player dies, the mission automatically ends. This will always happen before the trigger fires, since triggers only check conditions every half a second or so, rather than at the exact moment the state changes. I can't promise that this is the issue, but that is what it sounds like to me.

Everyone out of ideas?

Checked your trigger and I am not sure if the forceEnd is needed. Could be that the force end prevents the correct ends from triggering, bu that would make no sense because you use them for ends 1 and 2. Problem is that I couldn't test it as the triggers somehow didn't activate.. will check it again later today.

BuhBye, we do not allow bumping after such a short period of time.

Sorry guys. It was not my intent to "bump" my post. I was looking for someone to say "I have no idea". All too often when people dont know they say nothing and you wait for an answer thinking that they are thinking but they aren't.
