Hi guys , time to help the Community again .

I wrote a script that shows how you can record and playback a Demo of your Game , this means you record your movements to a Demofile and your able to playback this file. It can be used for your Games to maybe show how to beat a Boss or to show some later Levels .

start the level and run it , use these Keys.

F1 -- Record a Demo
F2 -- Stops Recording or Playing a Demo
F3 -- Playback a Demo

I only store the Pan and the Position of the Player in the File , of Course you can add more if needed , maybe some enemy Positions or Which Level is playing something else. But Notice the File will grow if you add more Numbers to the File.
I got only a 179 kb Demo File in 1 Minute Recording time.

Here is the LINK to the script with a Test Level.

Have fun and let me know if you have questions or Problems with the script.

Sound interesting, im just to test the test level now

edit: yes seems useful, i may use this in the future

This is excellent. Just what I've been looking for.

Thanks,

Matt Coles

Thank you, Shinobi!
Helpfull thing.

nice idea to record a game

Tested the level and it is excellent. I wonder if I could change the script slightly to tape the camera instead of the player

Thanks Again,

Matt Coles

Just replace the Player positions with the Camera Positions in the demo_record Function . But it would not work in my example script , because the camera position will be set on players Position.

Thanks for the reply, it's good to hear I can adapt it easily. Thanks Again,
