copylevel
 

copylevel serverside right?

If i am doing everthing right...is copylevel able to take variables and make a new level using the variable/string values?

Edit:

i had looked up the old copylevel threads, but they didnt help me like i needed

copylevel levelname,newlevelname

of course, serverside only.

All copylevel does is make an exact copy of a level. copylevel can't edit strings/vars in levels. (Atleast not to my knowledge)

So then i have all the syntax down right, my pathname for the new level etc.

And what i ment was does it accept strings as values

so you could copy the level over to a new folder but with an extension diffrent to that of the first while still retaining the origonal prefix levelname

I'm not really sure what you are saying.

You mean like:
copylevel blah.nw,places/#a.nw ?

If that's what you mean, you can do that. (#s #v etc will also work in place of #a)

Right so then i dont understand what could be wrong, im calling copylevel from a weapon npc, but it wont copy the level infact it wont do anything at all.

Kinda confusing, i guess ill go play somemore, thanks for help

Post the part of the script that does the level copying and I can probably help.

well

NPC Code:

---

if (actionserverside) {

 if (strequals(#p(0),copylvl)) {

  copylevel #p(1),test/#p(1)_#p(3).nw;

 }

}

//#CLIENTSIDE

if (playerchats) {

 if (startswith(copylevel,#c)) {

  tokenize #c;

  triggeraction 0,0,serverside,-System,copylvl,#F,#a,#t(1);

 }

}

---

thats what ive done, planned to put a personal extention i had named on the end of level #F i was standing on.

Edit:

fixed the part in the initital code that was messed up anyways

copylevel #p(1).nw,test/#p(1)_#p(3).nw;

should be

copylevel #p(1),test/#p(1)_#p(3).nw;


#F/#p(1) would return levelname.nw
and copylevel would look for levelname.nw.nw

I had caught that part after i posted that x_o;

Still though i have fixed that part, then when i execute to go to copylevel it does not copy the level, my folder is still empty.

Ah yes.. #F should be #L. That should fix it.

Should but didnt, i still dont see my level copied into the folder :(

hrm.. weird. I tested it on Maloria and it worked fine.

ew, i dont know what the problem is then :(

I believe there is a serveroption needed to be enabled to be able to use copylevel, I could be wrong though.

argh, which could it be then -_-

Edit:

if there is one at all, and if anyone else could shed some light on this, that would be swell too

No serveroption is needed. If there is, it must not apply to Maloria :megaeek:
