Hi to all

I have been looking in the forums for ages and not found anything to help so decided to post, so sorry if a solution already exists.

I'm working on a space game with multiple star systems, the backgrounds are bitmaps, and everything else are sprites.


what I want to know is how can I make a wormhole that closes down the open map and loads the new map when the player sprite enter a certain area. im using sprite x(1)and sprite y(1) to detect if the player is in the area, but i can't make it get to the mew map.

any help would be great

many thanks

Rogue

Sorry, but you are being a little too vague there.

Are you asking how to create a wormhole effect or are you after suggestions on what to do in your program to change the star map when a player uses a wormhole to travel about the system?

That is just simply zoning from one map to another. It's no different than how you loaded up your current map, just that there was a zone trigger.
