| Is it possible to make a portal like in the map Space Endor? (you can find that map on filefront)
It would be very apperciated if anyone could help. |

| Yes, there are teleporters, it is possible in 2 ways and they both work: 1st way: - Spoiler:

1: Open ZE, create a region that when entered you will teleport from. For tutorial purposes, I've named it 'TeleportRegion'
2: Create a new path. just place 1 node and name it something that you can remember, For tutorial purposes, I've named it 'TeleportNode'
3: Open your .lua in which you want the teleporter to work.
4: Add this piece of code inside the 'function ScriptPostLoad()' just before 'End'
- Code:
-
OnEnterRegion(
function(regIn,character)
MoveEntityToNode(character,"TeleportNode")
end,
"TeleportRegion"
)
ActivateRegion("TeleportRegion")
5: Scroll down to the bottom of your Lua, and add this piece of code after the last End 9should be last thing in your script)
- Code:
-
function MoveEntityToNode(entIn,pathIn,nodeIn)
if not entIn then
print("Warning!: Entity not specified for move")
return false
elseif not pathIn then
print("Warning!: Path not specified for Entity " .. entIn .. " move")
return false
end
local node
if nodeIn then
node = nodeIn
else
node = 0
end
local locDest = GetPathPoint(pathIn,node)
local charUnit = GetCharacterUnit(entIn)
if charUnit then
SetEntityMatrix(charUnit,locDest)
return true
end
return false
end
6: Munge and test, If it works, have a cookie! (no chocolate ones)
If your still having trouble, heres my Lua to compare with (its a hunt lua, Only included the areas around the teleport scripts.)
- Code:
-
--
-- Copyright (c) 2005 Pandemic Studios, LLC. All rights reserved.
--
-- load the gametype script
ScriptCB_DoFile("setup_teams")
ScriptCB_DoFile("ObjectiveTDM")
function ScriptPostLoad()
EnableSPHeroRules()
-- This is the actual objective setup
hunt = ObjectiveTDM:New{teamATT = 1, teamDEF = 2,
multiplayerScoreLimit = 100,
pointsPerKillATT = 1, pointsPerKillDEF = 1,
textATT = "game.modes.hunt2",
textDEF = "game.modes.hunt", multiplayerRules = true, isCelebrityDeathmatch = true}
hunt:Start()
AddAIGoal(1, "Deathmatch", 1000)
AddAIGoal(2, "Deathmatch", 1000)
OnEnterRegion(
function(regIn,character)
MoveEntityToNode(character,"TeleportNode")
end,
"TeleportRegion"
)
ActivateRegion("TeleportRegion")
end
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- FUNCTION: ScriptInit
-- PURPOSE: This function is only run once
-- INPUT:
-- OUTPUT:
-- NOTES: The name, 'ScriptInit' is a chosen convention, and each
-- mission script must contain a version of this function, as
-- it is called from C to start the mission.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
function ScriptInit()
ReadDataFile("dc:Load\\common.lvl")
ReadDataFile("ingame.lvl")
REP = 1
CIS = 2
-- These variables do not change
ATT = 1
DEF = 2
SetMaxFlyHeight(30)
......................
......................
......................
SetSoundEffect("SpawnDisplayUnitChange", "shell_select_unit")
SetSoundEffect("SpawnDisplayUnitAccept", "shell_menu_enter")
SetSoundEffect("SpawnDisplaySpawnPointChange", "shell_select_change")
SetSoundEffect("SpawnDisplaySpawnPointAccept", "shell_menu_enter")
SetSoundEffect("SpawnDisplayBack", "shell_menu_exit")
--OpeningSateliteShot
AddCameraShot(0.872887, -0.099144, -0.474692, -0.053916, -69.674454, 40.497543, -49.157150);
end
function MoveEntityToNode(entIn,pathIn,nodeIn)
if not entIn then
print("Warning!: Entity not specified for move")
return false
elseif not pathIn then
print("Warning!: Path not specified for Entity " .. entIn .. " move")
return false
end
local node
if nodeIn then
node = nodeIn
else
node = 0
end
local locDest = GetPathPoint(pathIn,node)
local charUnit = GetCharacterUnit(entIn)
if charUnit then
SetEntityMatrix(charUnit,locDest)
return true
end
return false
end
If you want more then 1 teleport, then add more regions and nodes (different names) and add the 1st piece of lua code in under then 2nd one with the new names.
2nd way: - Spoiler:

Important Edit:
I will keep updating the code at that link until it's finished. Right now everything seems to be working. Its important to note that a region has to have its type/class properties be the same as its name inorder for it to work with SetupEnterRegionTeleport()
Steps to getting it working (using an example eli map):
1) Copy the code below and paste it in a text file then rename it teleport.lua
2) Put teleport.lua into data_XXX\Common\scripts
3) Add "teleport" to the script section of data_XXX\Common\mission.req
Opened ZeroEdit:
4) Added a region: region0
5) Set the region's Type/Class Properties to region0
6) Save
7)Open data_XXX\Common\scripts\XXX\XXXg_eli.lua and add ScriptCB_DoFile("teleport") as the first line
8) Before function ScriptPostLoad's end add:
- Code:
-
--A single teleport
local region = GetRegionLocation( "region0" )
local destination = GetPathNodeDestination( "eli_cp4_spawn", 0 )
SetupEnterRegionTeleport( region, destination, 0, 0 )
ActivateRegion( "region0" )
9) Save
10) Munge Common
11) Load the game
12) Run the map
13) Enter region0 and get teleported to CP4

| Thanks! This will be VERY helpful in crossing the large distances my maps tend to have. |

| You are welcome.
if you have any problems getting teleporters to work (well, you shouldn't), post them here. |
