How do I delete link points?

by Hayden Scott-Baron · in Torque Game Builder · 05/25/2007 (6:26 am) · 3 replies

I accidentally added too many link points to my ship in the shooter demo.
Right clicking doesn't delete it, and the delete key didn't help either.

Any ideas?

Hayden's post is a few months old and no one replied, but I am having exactly the same problem. (Well, it's not the shooter demo in my case, it's the fish demo.) I added some link points and now would like to get rid of them. The documentation says very clearly that you can delete them by right-clicking, but that doesn't do anything as far as I can tell.

Is this a known issue? I have v1.5.1.

I can confirm that this bug is in TGB 1.5.0 and TGB 1.5.1. I don't have the time to fix it so it would be great if GG or someone else could have a quick look at it.

You can delete the link points manually by editing your level file. For example, if you called your level "Level5", then you can open the file game\data\levels\Level5.t2d in a text editor (like Notepad) and search for the string "LinkPoints". Delete the appropriate coordinates, save the file, and you're done.

Warning: Don't do this manual editing while the level is open in TGB. Exit TGB first, or at least open a different level, so that TGB isn't trying to modify the same level file you're working on.
