Ending mission intros

Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm recently got this game and have been having a great time learning its capabilities. Just got my briefings to work, learning triggers etc.

I've got an intro I'm making in the editor but I cannot figure out for the life of me how to get the intro to end and go immediately to the part where you (as the player) then start the actual mission. I'm looking at all the tutorials I've downloaded but either I'm missing something or I just cannot find the answer.

Can anyone tell me how to set up an end of an intro in the Mission editor?

Thanks.

make a trigger, make it whatever you want, then make it end #1 and it will cut to briefing

It worked. Thank you very much.

One other question if I may ask. Those other "end" commands in the triggers. What do you use them for? Do you need a different "end" command for each and every trigger?

I believe "End1", "End2" and so on, regard themselves to the briefing where you put in your Debriefings...

End1

End2

etc.

Take for example one of my missions...

End1 - US Soldiers apprehend Walid al'Nasir and extract.

End2 - Walid al'Nasir is struck by a bullet and killed but soldiers extract.

End3 - Both groups of US soldiers are wiped out.

You are probably right and I did think that was a possibility. I will experiment with them and see what answers come up. Thanks. smile.gif

I got frustrated at one mission, which didn't end.

I had all the triggers right and blaah blaah..

I noticed that you cannot have two triggers of type End#1..

Do You need a breifing to go from Intro to mission? In other words...is it possible to use the end 1 trigger to cut directly to the mission?

AFAIK no. If you haven't written a BRIEFING.HTML file, you will still come to "briefing", you'll see the map (as default at least), the notebook (without text) and so on. Briefing.html is the text in the notebook.

when you make a trigger and make it activation by "east" and put it on "not present" it will go to debrief if all east guys in that zone are dead. caal it end#1

you also can make a trigger and put a waypoint in the triggerzone and make the activation by the unit that is using that waypoint and call it End#2 (so when that guy is coming in that triggerzone the mission end) >nice for helo extractions<

Cu later
