Use a GetLocation command to get their location when they die. Call it lPCLocation or something. Create a WP there. Destroy the last WP you made (actually better do that first) Make the portal port to the new WP.

I'm going out for a curry so I can't write you a script just at this moment. Good luck!

For those of you who have played, is this better?

I thought there might already be a script made. I'll do my best to create one, we'll see hw well that works out.

I know there are public domain respawn scripts out there, you just have to look for them. I'd help you, but as I said I can really only script what I can do on Lilac Soul's program, and respawn scripts are a little beyond my meager talents.

Or you could store the location on an object. That way each new location will overwrite the old one.

Try something like this in your respawn script:

object oPC=GetFirstPC();
object oStorer=GetObjectByTag("Tag of object to store location");
location lDied=GetLocation(oPC);

SetLocalLocation(oStorer, "death point", lDied);

Then the return script in a conversation could be:

object oPC=GetPCSpeaker();
object oStorer=GetObjectByTag("Tag of object to store location");

location lDied=GetLocalLocation(oStorer, "death point");

AssignCommand(oPC, JumpToLocation(lDied));

I feel inadequate again, I think its time to start a "How many pull-ups can I do thread".


How would I go about implementing those scripts? I think I got the respawn script right, I just added it to the end of the default script. The second bit I dont know where to put at all.

Put the second bit in a conversation in the "actions taken"

The first part is fine, I do that a lot because I prefer fewer files.

The second bit needs to be put in a conversation. Everyline in a conversation had two events to place scripts: text appears when (to check whether or not to show this text) and action taken (to run a script that performs an action). So write a new script and shove everything between the {} in void main. Then save it and put it in an action taken event in a conversation.

A: How can I help?
PC: Teleport me to where I last died.
A: Okey dokey! (Put script here in action taken event.)

I messed around with the toolset, and I have learned I'm stupid .

So I have given up on that. I have many cool ideas floating around my head, by they are difficult to implement.

object oPC=GetPCSpeaker();
object oStorer=GetObjectByTag("Tag of object to store location");

location lDied=GetLocalLocation(oStorer, "death point");

AssignCommand(oPC, JumpToLocation(lDied));



object oPC=GetPCSpeaker();
object oStorer=GetObjectByTag("Tag of object to store location");

location lDied=GetLocalLocation(oStorer, "death point");

AssignCommand(oPC, JumpToLocation(lDied));

Do I need to change anything about these scripts?
I tried putting them in as is and it didnt work.

[Cyclotron]

Maybe it's because they're lacking the beginning and end tags, which you see on the short scripts that are there by default. Put that script in between beginning and end tags, like so:

Put this

void main()
{

before it, and this

}

after it, i.e.:

void main()
{

object oPC=GetPCSpeaker();
object oStorer=GetObjectByTag("Tag of object to store location");

location lDied=GetLocalLocation(oStorer, "death point");

AssignCommand(oPC, JumpToLocation(lDied));



object oPC=GetPCSpeaker();
object oStorer=GetObjectByTag("Tag of object to store location");

location lDied=GetLocalLocation(oStorer, "death point");

AssignCommand(oPC, JumpToLocation(lDied));

}

I haven't actually checked the script to see if it works, but that's at least something you'll need to do to get any script to work.

By the way, any other CEP users out there? It's both good and bad for builders; good because you get a ton more placeables and creature types, but bad because, well, there are so many it gets a bit overwhelming.

w0000000000000t! Got it working!

Maybe it's because they're lacking the beginning and end tags, which you see on the short scripts that are there by default. Put that script in between beginning and end tags, like so:

I already had it paced properly, I had to replace "Tag of object to store location" with the tag of an object. I had thought it would create the object automaticaly but I had to place an instance somewhere in the module for it to move around.

easy if you know what youre doing, but I was clueless, I feel like I just solved the mystery of Atlantis!

[Cyclotron]

Well, that's important too.
