EVERYTHING HAS BEEN TRANSFERED TO THIS SITE: Nik0405's Events

My second event tutorial

Introduction:

Allows you to give the player an specific amount of "lives". Like in arcade games.

When the amount of lives change to 0 the player will get an GameOver screen.

And when he dies while he still has lives left the current amount of lives will be displayed and than he will respawn at the last "Savepoint".

Features:

-player has now and specific amount of lives

-when the player dies there will be no GameOver.

Instead he will respawn at the last savepoint

-the amount of lives can easely be changed (Items, Events)

-Save and quit feature: for the ones who like to ragequit after dying

The game can be resumed after that. (Took quite a long time to get that working)

Online Demo:

Hope it helps.

Let's begin eventing:
