hi, i created two levels and there is an entity which calls level_load on impact. but when the level_load is executed the current level disappears and the other is not appearing. only the skycube remains visible.

any ideas what could be wrong here?

your code?

well, nothing special:
Code:

---

action levelChange()
{
   while(vec_dist(player.x,my.x)>64)
   {
      my.pan -= 3*time_step;
      wait(1);
   }
   level_load(my.string1);
}

---

.. where entities string1 is set to the wmb name of the next level via weds propertie-tab

You should not load a level through a level entity.
Make an own function for that, because the action that loads the level will be terminated when it loads a level.
This should give you a start:

ENTITY* level_change_ent;

action level_changer()
{
level_change_ent = me;
}


function levelChange()
{
while(!levelchange_ent){wait(1);}
while(vec_dist(player.x,levelchange_ent.x)>64)
{
levelchange_ent.pan -= 3*time_step;
wait(1);
}
level_load(levelchange_ent.string1);
}

You should make this function as startup or start it in main(). Don´t start it through an action. Then it should work.

thanks, gonna try this tonight:)

sadly, that doesnt work...
the same thing happens as before. only the skycube is drawn and nothing more...

ok, i found the problem, its not the way i used a level-entity, but the entity string seems to be the problem. if i write level_load("nextlevel.wmb"); it works fine...

edit:
if i use the following script it works. it seems that entity.string1 is already erased when the level_load is called:
Code:

---

STRING* nextLevel = "#100";

action ei()
{
	str_cpy(nextLevel,my.string1);
	set(my,PASSABLE);
	while(!player) wait(1);
	while(vec_dist(my.x,player.x)>50)
	{
		my.pan -= 5*time_step;
		wait(1);
	}
	level_load(nextLevel);
}
