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

[xManiamaNx]

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

[xManiamaNx]

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.

ew, i dont know what the problem is then

[Thought]

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

[xManiamaNx]

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