Mission Types

by Jon Jorajuria · in Torque Game Engine · 02/03/2006 (4:02 pm) · 1 replies

I have been failing at getting three mission types with a base superclass default mission implemented in my game. So in the interest of time, I was wondering if it were possible to have three seperate game.cs files that would be called based upon information in the *.mis files. For example:

Game *.cs files.

FFA.cs
TDM.cs
CTF.cs

*.mis file info:

new ScriptObject(MissionInfo) {
         name = "Stronghold";
         gametype = "FFA";
         descLines = "2";
         desc0 = "This death match mission takes place in a small orc village. There are no teams, every orc is your enemy!";
   };
What I would like to do is call the FFA.cs if any missions are loaded with that gametype info. Any suggestions would be welcome, I am a major time crunch. Thank you in advanced for your time.

Try using the 'onMissionLoaded()' function in game.cs to load the specific functionality based on information the infromation loaded with the mission.

E.g.
// in mission file
$MissionInfo = new ScriptObject(MissionInfo) {

...
function onMissionLoaded() {
    if ($MissionInfo.gametype $= "FFA") {
        exec("FFA.cs");
    }

    startGame();
}

I am not sure this will work, but might put you in the right direction.
