Know Bugs

• trying to reset while draging a body will CTD ~ seems to not happen every time
• Dying in side of a save hotspot should be avoided
• Rarely an enitey will get stuck as if you had froze them while they were ragdolling,
  and resetting wont move them to fix this hit z then let it roll
• WARNING; to map makers if you plan on using this mod be warning that due to a bug in davids code if you place a sword and sheathe in the same slot one of them wont appear in the data slots so they wont be saved by my mod

So R would save the position you want to teleport to, and Y would teleport you there?

Looks like that's what that code does. It's like Morrowind Mark and Recall.

Excellent idea. Sort of a primitive quicksave system.

Might be worth expanding a bit on it to track enemy positions and such and voila you got an awesome quicksave mod.

my first tests with the script were on maps with no bots. i tried it on a map with some and it turns out it saves the position of all loaded entities and then teleports them. so basicly this is a quick save mod.

EDIT; ill upload a video after work and ill try to work out the char id system so i can make it save the state of entities(ie passed out awake dead). oh yea this scrip wont work if your radolled not sure why atm

Ahh yes that's great.

I actually tinkered already with a health check so characters that were alive will recover health. Not perfect since they recover full health and also you have to press load button twice if they've been killed but gets the job done. Feel free to improve on it.

Code: Select all

vec3 savepos = this_mo.position;
float save_knocked_out = knocked_out;
void HandleSpecialKeyPresses() {
	if(GetInputDown(this_mo.controller_id, "r")){
		save_knocked_out = knocked_out;
		savepos = this_mo.position;
      }
      if(GetInputDown(this_mo.controller_id, "y")){
	  if (save_knocked_out == _awake) {RecoverHealth();}
	  this_mo.position = savepos;
      }
	  
	  

Another thing is enemies alertness state. Would be nice to reset that so they don't chase you after reset.

I wonder if this code can be executed with a checkpoint? It would be really cool when it does so we can place some autosave checkpoints onto parkour maps.

[Constance]

Yay, we're doing checkpoints now!

yea ill start working on it. if anyone has some example scripts for how hotspots work itd be great if you could link it here

[Korban3]

Excellent first mod, sirrah.

[Hg341]

Excellent first mod, sirrah.

why thanks

Code: Select all

vec3 savepos = this_mo.position;
float save_knocked_out = knocked_out;

	    if(GetInputDown(this_mo.controller_id, "v")){
		save_knocked_out = knocked_out;
		savepos = this_mo.position;
		}
		if(GetInputDown(this_mo.controller_id, "y")){
		recover();
		this_mo.position = savepos;
		if (save_knocked_out !=_awake) {knocked_out = _unconscious;}
		}

the changes properly save awake state .ill work out AI state and how to toggle it then ill work on item states.

Yes, this should be possible!

[Hg341]

Yes, this should be possible!

it should be but i cant get something as simple as a hotspot that executes "SaveQs();"

[CryptoSeven]

Works like a charm. Fun to see this growing out of that first simple teleporting.
