Choose Your Own Adventure

Remeber the books? When you ended a chapter you had to make a choice: "if you want to fight the dragon turn to page 35" "if you want to run into the dark cave turn to page 67"

Could you do that in single player? Say at the end of a mission you get a choice of what map you want to move to?

Yes

Yes you can do that if you use more than one trigger and have more than one thread for the ending.

endmission:

$endlevel waittill trigger
exec global/missioncomplete.scr m2l2b 1

end

The above thread is from m2l2a and, as you can see, it points to the next level to load.

That would be great. You can make like three dark hallways with different town names.

......Berlin.....|.....France......|.....Soviet Union.....|


(France and SU are not town names. )

But that is a great idea.

Well though original I think it would waste your maps... as the player simply selects his adventure he only plays a minor portion of the available maps :(

Ahhh but the replay value of the game would go up 10 fold. Anyone remember Panzer General. Im sure you do but i played that game for days going beating the game then going back and maybe doing better or intentionally doing worse just to see what situation you would end in next.

MAde it alot of fun. You could do the same here make it dam near impossible to pass first time out and it send you to some crappy invasion sequence where it take everything you got to stay alive and then when you get good you get to just run through a nazi base throwing nades in their tents while they sleep!! MWhahahahaha

i think its a great idea. Although very time consuming but great idea.

Yea if you read those old books, you find that the chapeters are all interlinked and you go in circles until you make the right choices. Sometimes the book could be read through up to 3-4 times until the right sequence of events are played in the right order.
