how to make a checkpoint

[marsh escarp]

all the other ways ive seen is so complicated and im wondering if theres an easier way

[dry bay]

they arent that complicated

[unique raven]

Create a vector global and in a checkpoint obj add a collision detector, in the when collision starts (make sure only player/main actor can collide) do
Set (Vector var) = self x,y
And in the player when dying, find respawn block and change the spawn loc to set loc and simply change the (0, 0) to the vector var i think

Oh and i almost forgot that you need to put this in the main actor's when object starts/initializes
Set (vector var) = self x,y so it starts as the spawn location

[dry bay]

is that 4.x

[unique raven]

Pretty sure it works on both versions

[dry bay]

was gonna answer this question but your script works ig

if you want something a little bit simpler you can make a checkpoint flag with this script (make sure to also make an array global variable with two inputs)

and when the main actor died do this hell of a script

[unique raven]

Just use a vector

It's simpler

[marsh escarp]

alr thanks

[marsh escarp]

this may be annoying but how do i get respawn x,y and how do i put the axis x and y together

[dry bay]

global variable

[marsh escarp]

which one

sorry im new

[dry bay]

numbers array

[marsh escarp]

hold on

how to get this to there

[dry bay]

remove the save.d saved progress thingy and replace it with global variable

then you can select the array

[dry bay]

yeah that

now put the x axis first then the y axis on the dark thingy

[marsh escarp]

like this

wait

i got it i think

[dry bay]

yeah you do

now onto the hard part

go to the when dying script on the main actor

[marsh escarp]

ok

what now

[dry bay]

do that

[dry bay]

you can put global variables into the attribute block on the empty slot

that way you can get this

do the same thing two times, like this "extract" thingy is when picking the Nth item

then add a block like that, remove the two digits to make empty slots

then put the "extract item" into the empty slots, the 1st item going into the first slot and the 2nd item going into the second slot

[marsh escarp]

got it

[dry bay]

remove the weird crosshair thing and put the X,Y thing (with the array) into the empty slot

[dry bay]

it should look like this

[dry bay]

yeah thats correct

also the other dying script is your choice

you can use the preset one, use an animation or however you like it

make sure to always put the respawn block in the end

hope this helped

[marsh escarp]

is it done

[dry bay]

[dry bay]

yes

[marsh escarp]

yay

thanks
