K I want my level to change once my character reaches a certain position, or when my player touches a certain object. How should I go about this. I am using the A5 templates.
Sorry for being a noob, but help would be great.

action LevelChanger_act
{
while(!player) { wait(1); }
my.passable = on;
while(me)
{
if(vec_dist(my.x,player.x) < 50)
{
level_load("level02.wmb");
}
wait(1);
}
}
Other approach using a touch event:
function LevelChanger_event()
{
if(event_type == event_entity || event_type == event_impact)
{
if(you == player)
{
level_load("level2.wmb");
}
}
}
action LevelChanger_act
{
my.enable_entity = on;
my.enable_impact = on;
my.event = LevelChanger_event;
}
Of course you can alter it for using it with multiple levels. Like, define a skill which works as id for the level that is loaded, have a string array (text object) holding all level name strings, and load it using the id as index:
text level_files
{
string = "level1.wmb","level2.wmb"....
}
...
define level_id, skill2;
...
level_load(level_files.string[my.level_id]);
...
hope this helps you a bit

Xarthor's 2nd approach is good imo, but you should remove the levelchanger entity right after the impact event called because if you dont remove it, impact event wil get called everyframe, means it will call level_load in everyframe of impact which causes engine to freeze.

Thank You so much, but now when I load the next level all of the panels I made in my main script for for level 2 dont show up. Is it still using the same main script from the last level?
if so how do I load the main script for level two?

Ok I used the seconed aproach and it worked, but now when the player shoots at the level change object the level changer turns off. Still using A5 templates.

function LevelChanger_event()
{
if(event_type == event_entity || event_type == event_impact)
{
if(you == player)
{
my.enable_entity = null;
my.enable_impact = null;
level_load("level2.wmb");
}
}
}
This makes sure that events are only turned off if the player hits the entity. Hope this works.
