an 'offline' level online.

How would I go about making a level that everyone can go to, but players can't see other players?

I believe n-pulse had some cut scene levels like that.

You could either use copylevel(source, destination); to create multiple versions of the same level, or do some fancier system using hideplayer(time);, player.alpha and whatnot in ganis.

Ziro, could you give me an example of the first one please... the (source, destination) one

[CujoDaMan]

You can't learn by copying and pasting but source would be foldername/levelname.nw and destination would be newfolder/levelname.nw

If i think right:

PHP Code:

copylevel("foldername/levelname.nw", "newfolder/levelname.nw"); 


That may not be right, but I belive that is what it is.

The best plan would be to do what Ziro said at the end and come up with a system that hides everyone except yourself and use client-side script for the cut-scene.

copylevel usage:

copylevel works off the levels folder as it's base so it can be a little confusing, in this example the template level is stored in:

levels/baselevel/housetemplate.nw

and it will be copied to:

levels/houselevels/house_account.nw

PHP Code:

function onCreated() {
  copylevel("baselevel/housetemplate.nw", "houselevels/house_account.nw");
} 


Make sure your folder config includes:

level houselevels/*.nw

Otherwise you won't be able to access the level.

So with that you could make a level for every player by setting the new level name as "house_"@player.account@".nw" correct fp? I'm on my blackberry typing this .. Just want to make sure that would work for a better understanding

Pretty much, be sure to do:

temp.lvl = "house_" @ escapefilename(player.account) @ ".nw";

Which will convert things like spaces and colons to their % reprensation form.

I thought so, thanks fp!
