portal

[Illutian]

um...anyone know how to make a portal (sorta like the one the campaign uses) that would allow one to jump to partyleader or go back to where they died?

You need something to find the party-leader and portal to that and something that stores the player location when the player dies. And use that to portal to. For that last you can use setlocallocation,  for the first use Getfactionleader. Then just write a few script and a conversation for the portal.

If it's not clear I may write some code if I have the time for it. Not a promise.

OnPlayerDeath ----> CreateObject(liek a light?) -----> SetLocalInt(oLight*Player CD Key*) ---->
Portal in town* OnUsed GetObjectByTag(Light object that was spawned) ------> If GetLocalInt(oLight)==oPCCD) port player(oPCCD = GetPCPublicCDKey ----> else if cant find a local int matching oPC's CD Key Get the next object, scan again.


Several other methods, make sure the "Light" its destroyed when the player uses the portal in (Town?)

I dunno, Its been a long time =P

Storing the location seems me cleaner and more effcient.

That idea could be used to make a r.i.p. sign or so on the place the player dies, till he/she returns. Would be nice too.

Other words, you rejoin

[Illutian]

what? leave when you die and rejoin alive? oh no my friend YO ASS WILL BE PART OF THE GRASS STILL muahahaha (plus i do believe your character will remain there even after u leave)

Regen + a couple relogs = back alive

You get one round of regen when you log back in before you 're-die.' Enough logging will keep the regen coming in, and once you have over 1 hp you are alive.
