Persistant World Player Intro

[Legacy_Jenna WSI]

               I've seen a few variations of an introduction to the server on the first time you enter a gameworld. A blackout then a story, or whatever. I didn't find anything on the vault about this but I may have used the wrong search term. Anyone aware of a pre-packaged script/hak/whatever?

               Are you looking for a cutscene script for new characters that enter a server? Or a prefab area that allows first time characters to adjust their character to the world? Since Lord of Worms allows his mod to be downloaded you should check out his intro area.

               I'd like some way to put a story across to new players, explaining the basics of the setting and how you got there. So a cutscreen script might work... I don't have movies or areas that I need to show off perse, just the text.

               What I do is have a welcome area in the mod with the starting location in it. If a character has not been to the module before, they land in this area and are given some information by placeable signs etc... If the character has already been through the zone they are then transported on to their last saved location.

You just need one variable in the database associated with each character to check when determining whether they have seen the introduction. The script would be in the onenter script of the welcome area.
