Changing Maps

[Deathwishez]

Is there a way to change the map through script?

[Ad Bot]

[ZSNO]

loadMission("[file location .mis]");

[Deathwishez]

loadMission("[file location .mis]");

Alright, that seems like it will work.

Will it clean everything up before switching maps?

[Deathwishez]

Alright. I did /changemap
Add-Ons/Map_Slopes/slopes.mis, and it switched maps, but didn't load any objects.

Could this be potentially dangerous and crash the server?

[Kalphiter]

changeMap("Slopes");
changeMap("Slate");

Don't listen to ZSNO's code.

[ZSNO]

=P

[Deathwishez]

changeMap("Slopes");
changeMap("Slate");

So I can type the save name of the map?

What's the command to relight the scene?

What's the command to relight the scene?

On the client, it's lightScene('',"Forcealways");
If you want to force all clients on the server to relight, you can't without client-sided coding.

[Deathwishez]

crap.

Then how can I fully load/change a map via script?

changeMap("Slopes");
changeMap("Slate");

It will light correctly and clean up the mission and all of that, you don't need to worry about any of those.

Odd... It did work for me.

I guess I can try again...

[Deathwishez]

Ah, I figured out the problem. My Slopes map is jacked up.

Oh, and I gotta use /changemap Add-Ons/Map_(Map Name)/(Mission Name).mis

Why can't you just go cntrl-A -> changemap rather than scripting it

Because sometimes you need scripts that do things
For instance, try making a team deathmatch without the mod.
