Skip the startup screen!

OK I don't like spending the time to click "start mission", "scorched earth", "load" just to test a little change(Yeah I'm lazy). So I decided to change this. Here's how you can do it:


edit "example\fps\client\init.cs"

around line 97:

replace:

// Start up the main menu... this is separated out into a
// method for easier mod override.
loadMainMenu();



with:

// CG: if a mission is passed then load it, skipping menu screen
if ($missionArg !$= "") {
if ($pref::HostMultiPlayer)
%serverType = "MultiPlayer";
else
%serverType = "SinglePlayer";

createServer(%serverType, $missionArg);
%conn = new GameConnection(ServerConnection);
RootGroup.add(ServerConnection);
%conn.setConnectArgs($pref::Player::Name);
%conn.setJoinPassword($Client::Password);
%conn.connectLocal();
} else {
// Start up the main menu... this is separated out into a
// method for easier mod override.
loadMainMenu();
}


to use this run at the command line:
torqueDemo.exe -mission fps/data/missions/scorchedPlanet.mis
