To date, I have been building (IAW tutorial) Single Player levels only, just to learn the editing and coging aspects. Is there anything in buiiding a SP that would not allow me to just change the episode data (type 2 vs type 1?) and run ok? I have heard on this board that NPCs can't be used in MP because the AIs get confused and/or show different players different actions. Is there anything else before I build a big MP level and really hose it up?
Send Question: Has anybody else had problems with their system completely hanging up at a consistent/specific instance? I have had to abandon my second level for this reason. In both instances, it was because of firing a rail gun. The latest level wouild hang up if I fired it into one of two connected sectors. From any angle or side. One fo these two sectors has a LOT of cleaves, got tired of all these perpendicular lines and did some diagonals. Consistency check worked ok.
I know that without sending level it wouild be difficult, just thought someone might have thoughts on this....
(Luckily it was early enogh in the level where I can start over, but lost about 6 hours of level design/debugging problem)
Thanks.......
