Changing mission -- solved

by Temasek Polytechnic Tp8 · in Torque Game Engine · 05/23/2006 (8:31 pm) · 7 replies

Anyone know how to change mission while the game had been load

example my first map loaded, when the player complete the 1st map, it go to a trigger that will load the next map...

createServer("SinglePlayer", "starter.fps/data/missions/dungeon.mis");

%conn = new GameConnection(ServerConnection);

RootGroup.add(ServerConnection);

%conn.setConnectArgs($pref::Player::Name);

%conn.setJoinPassword($Client::Password);

%conn.connectLocal();

i try out this one.... but it will get an error

This works for me.

loadMission("starter.fps/data/missions/test.mis");

ps : Am from SG myself, is Temasek teaching Torque as part of curriculum?

Ron Hasson: not really it only for my project
should i disconnect first before loadmission
loadMission does it work while the game in play and when player walk into a trigger....

I use the method spelled out in this thread, and it works great:

Make sure you read the whole thread for some fixes to the initial code. It's important, for instance, to call the initial switchMission function via schedule, rather than directly. ie.,:

schedule(0,0,switchMission,"mission.mis");

(...using the 'switchMission' function as written in that thread)

@TP8

I scheduled a call to loadMission when a trigger is activated.
Anyway, good that you got it solved.

I'm using TGE to create a multi-player game for the past few months.
I'm interested to contact you, nothing serious in mind, just to meet/talk to a fellow Torque user in SG.
Pls email me ronhasson-at-hotmail.com if you're keen.
