How would i load multiple levels using lite-c

Also if i am correct when you use level_load(); it will load that level and it's attached script

If so please explain why this does not work as i expect.

My first script
main.c


My level1.c (which is attached to level1.wmb)


When i run main.c it does not re-position the camera, but if i just run the level or the level1.c script it does

Anyone please explain
Thanks,
Blade

Level_load is for loading a level and not for starting a script. You can only have one main function and not two.

So when your script has the name "main.c" then you must put the camera placement in the main function of "main.c". What you do in "level1.c" is irrelevant as long you don't start this script.

o ok, so how can i have multiple levels with different camera positions etc.

use the same scripts in all levels.

Hmm, ok i will need to rethink my logic :s
Thanks

I am totally confused :s

For each level it will have different variables configured differently, how would i (for example) set the camera position for each level.

I was planning on storing all the camera positions for each level in variables in one script but then how would i know which variables to use and what level the player is on :S

make your all level's script sprate files.(dont use any main.)

and then include them all in your main script file.

make functions like, level1_init(){}, set your camera and global var here after loading level. say you have a map/level selector, which returns the number of selected level.


var selected_level = <do your level selecting thingy here, button click, or trigger and such.>;

if(selected_level==1){
level_load(lv1);
level1_init();
}
if(selected_level==2){
level_load(lv2);
level2_init();
}

....

hope this hepls.

Quoting Blade28081991.

(If WED ->) Maybe, 'you' could place / use dummy / marker entities in each level, and set (camera?) positions / angles to the positions / angles / skills of those entities.
(That is probably an obvious suggestion.)

(If WED->) 'I' believe level_name (STRING?) contains the name of the level currently loaded.
